The Muslim Sex Doctor captures counselling sessions between clients and an Imam working as a sex therapist, offering a unique insight into British Muslim sex lives.

We'll hear what issues affect the community and how one man is trying to change the way in which sex problems are discussed and remedied.

Psychologist and Imam Alyas Karmani is a man on a mission. He offers a bespoke service dealing with everything from masturbation to the Islamic stance on S and M and discovering the 'joy of Muslim sex'.

Through Imam Alyas's counselling we'll get a valuable insight into a community that normally just doesn't talk about sex. We'll unpack the impact of unspoken desire and through this, develop a new understanding of the Muslim community in modern Britain.
