low iman

May 03 2024 41 mins  
low iman is something every Muslim has tasted, or will at some point in their life. What does it feel like and where does it come from?

critical thinking

Feb 23 2024 33 mins  
you've no doubt at some point heard these words in school - 'critical thinking'. To some, it's triggering, but in the adult world, it's actually kind of sort of a teensy bit how you say... crucial. But what is it? What can it do for you, and how do you use it to shape the life that you want? NEW EPISODE EVERY FRIDAY! PODCAST PLATFORMS: SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/71zKZ8r

be good to people

Feb 02 2024 33 mins  
you see people every day... I hope. How do you treat those people? What do you think of them? What would you do if they mistreated you? The idea of showing goodness to others for nothing in return has been misconstrued to mean that someone is weak in their character and is not able to stand up for themselves. But it does the very opposite, it shows strength and firmness in a person

your 'best self' is when you find Allah

Jan 19 2024 35 mins  
a 'best self' or the 'best version of yourself' is a thing that has recently been marketed ubiquitously on social media. They tell you to hit the gym, drink your green smoothies, journal and that's that. But what if there's more? What if there's another side to the story that no one ever told you about?

confidence 101

Jan 05 2024 48 mins  
confidence baby- but not like you know it. Our society loves talking about the outside appearance of confidence, forgetting the inner work it takes to reach true self-confidence. I also discuss the idea of 'internal confidence' as well as 'external confidence' and how the two complete each other in every step of our lives. NEW EPISODE EVERY FRIDAY!

Nov 24 2023 47 mins  
What is this religion to which nearly 2 billion people dedicate their lives? Why is it so extremist and oppressive? In this episode, I introduce Islam through its fundamental source—the Quran.

the power of dua

Nov 10 2023 60 mins  
Imagine having access to all the money in the world, but all your life you've been withdrawing mere pennies. Muslims have access to Allah. To ask Allah, converse with Allah, plead Allah, but we forsake this special gift we've been given. NEW EPISODE EVERY FRIDAY!

unfriend them

Nov 03 2023 33 mins  
When are you gonna tell that person you don't want around anymore that you don't want them around anymore? Do you wait? Tell them? Pray for a miracle they'll disappear? It's as simple as telling them 'I don't find value in this anymore, but thank you for everything'. So why do we complicate it? But more importantly, why is it important for us to take that uncomfortable step for bet

Why is this happening to our people? Why do they have to endure a literal gen0cide? Muslims must know, this is all happening by the will of Allah. In fact, nothing happens without the will of Allah.
