The Rational Believer imad shoubaki
-
- Religion & Spirituality
What is the purpose of life? How can you find out? Does a creator of this universe exist? Why does that matter? What is good and evil? What is truth? Can the human mind ever know? How did the philosophers get confused over these issues?
This podcast is about your existence. It aims to answer the questions of why are you alive and how can you be certain of it. It aims to deal with all the objections and doubts raised in answering such questions especially for those living in the Western World and its philosophical culture.
Book is also on Amazon.

7.1- Bonus Episode: A brush with the miracle of the Quran
This is a more technical illustration of some of the unique literary features of the Quranic miracle. Familiarity with the Arabic language will be useful. This episode is dedicated to my old university friend Metab Hussain who sadly passed on to our Lord today. May Allah SWT grant him Firdous and his family patience. Ameen.
