    Becoming Free from Fear and Grief

    In this episode Imam discusses the meaning of "fikr"  or contemplation/meditation. He gives examples of how it operates both practically in the world as well as subtly in the heart.

    Beginning and Ending on the Inside

    In this week's episode, we discuss the difference between the Qur'an's teaching of approaching everything inwardly first, and then moving into the physical/superficial/outward, vs the Western modality which is to approach things from the outward first. Imam discusses how to approach the Qur'an through the inner realm. This week's advice to the seeker was recorded live. He discuses the idea of increase based on shukr/gratitude and he discusses the nature of true gratitude, which is to notice the small things.

    What is the Qur'an?

    In this first episode, Imam Fode Drame begins with an Arabic prayer and then gets into explaining what the Qur'an is; defining it using the definitions which the Qur'an itself uses to define and explain itself. He expounds on how the Qur'an how is multidimensional, being that it is both a miraculous text and a miraculous meaning, both being primordial or qadeem. At the end of each episode, we will ask Imam to give us a practical piece of advice. In this episode, he gives advice about the common question of many seekers, "does God love me?" He ends the episode with a prayer in both Arabic and English.  New Episodes on Mondays.
