Studying Religion & Building Confidence - Heraa Hashmi - S1:E5

After 9/11, Muslims in the west were given the unexpected expectation to condemn every act of terrorism that occurred both domestically and abroad. For more than a decade now, such an expectation has constantly put Muslims at the defensive about their perception in larger society and has directly affected the Muslim community's perception of itself. On this episode of Not Another Muslim Podcast, we talk to Heraa Hashmi on studying religion and becoming confident Muslims. Heraa Hashmi is an Indian American Muslim author and activist known as the creator of the Muslims Condemn list which collected instances of Muslims speaking out against bad actions "done falsely in the name of Islam."⁣ Responding to criticism online, Hashmi, created a 712-page online spreadsheet with specific examples of Muslims condemning terrorist actions. The spreadsheet had over 6000 entries and was still available and editable online. The website won her the Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research's Muhammad Ali Confident Muslim Award in 2017. Currently she is a contributor and the Marketing Director for @traversingtrad, a blog run by a group of young Muslims that strives to provide varied perspectives on modern society through the lenses of Islamic theology, Eastern and Western philosophy, and historical analysis.⁣ ⁣ Follow her @caveheraa

Reframing Religion for the Muslim Masses - Tareq Tamr - S1:E4

Even with almost 2 billions adherents around the world, the religion of Islam as it is presented in the west still struggles to communicate itself to the Muslims masses. Even now, Muslim community workers are still attempting to communicate the religion appropriately to the generality of people. For some, the religion and all of its apparent teachings may not completely resonate with the typical adherent. On this episode of Not Another Muslim Podcast, we talk to Tareq Tamr on the idea of reframing religion for the Muslim masses. Tareq Tamr is a youth director and psychology student from Windsor, Ontario who has served his communities as a khateeb, Islamic school teacher, and MSA executive.
