Dr Zakir Naik vs Shaykh Zain Siddiqi

Shaykh Zain is the only sunni scholar to offer Dr Zakir Naik to a debate. The reason for the offer of the debate was because of the things zakir naik has said, such as; saying "Yazid may peace be upon him", believing that the people of the grave cannot help, issues about Taqleed and many other issues. However unfortunately Dr Zakir Naik is not accepting the offer (the offer is still open to him).
