    The Plot Against Al-Aqsa: Red Heifers & the Third Temple

    This week on The Thinking Muslim, we speak with Dr. Abdallah Marouf, Palestinian academic and former Media and Public Relations Officer at Masjid al-Aqsa, who delivers an urgent warning. He says he has never felt this concerned about the possibility of Al-Aqsa being attacked. We discuss the growing calls from some Israeli religious figures to build a Third Temple, the activities of Temple movements, and whether the long-standing status quo at the Haram al-Sharif is already being eroded. Dr. Marouf also explains the influence of American evangelical support, the recent attention around the red heifer narrative, and what these developments could mean for the future of Al-Aqsa. And finally, we examine the difficult reality facing Palestinians in Jerusalem today, and whether any change to Al-Aqsa could once again ignite a wider uprising across the Muslim world.

    The Iran Trap: Is America Losing the War? | Dr. Sami Al-Arian

    Help us expand our Muslim media project here: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/membership Donate to our charity partner Baitulmaal here: http://btml.us/thinkingmuslim In this interview on The Thinking Muslim, Dr Sami Al-Arian joins us to analyse the rapidly escalating conflict involving Iran, Israel, USA and The Wider Arabic Region. We discuss whether Iran’s recent strikes and shifting strategy reveal deeper divisions inside the Iranian leadership. Dr Al-Arian also examines the consequences of Iran targeting Gulf states such as Qatar, the UAE, Bahrain and Kuwait, and whether these moves risk turning regional public opinion against Tehran. The conversation explores whether Iran is preparing for a long war of attrition, the possibility of disruptions to global energy and shipping routes, and how these developments could reshape alliances between the Gulf, the United States, and Israel. Who is really winning this conflict, and what might the next phase of the war look like for the region and the world?

    Is This the War That Breaks the Middle East? | Sami Hamdi

    Help us expand our Muslim media project here: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/membership Donate to our charity partner Baitulmaal here: http://btml.us/thinkingmuslim In this episode of The Thinking Muslim, we’re joined by political analyst Sami Hamdi to unpack the escalating confrontation with Iran - and what it reveals about the world order shaping our lives. We examine claims of a preemptive strike, the shifting power dynamics between Washington and Tel Aviv, and whether U.S. policy is being driven by Israel’s actions. From reports that Tucker Carlson urged restraint to voices like Marjorie Taylor Greene framing this as a defining political divide in America, the stakes have never been higher. What role are Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states really playing? Are Arab governments truly autonomous, or constrained by deeper alliances? Is Iran’s strategy sustainable, and could this conflict spiral beyond control? We also assess Benjamin Netanyahu’s regional vision and the risk of wider destabilisation. Join us for a principled, in-depth discussion on what these events mean for the future of our ummah in international affairs.

    Seerah & Geopolitics: How the Prophet ﷺ Built a Civilisation | Wadah Khanfar

    Help us expand our Muslim media project here: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/member... Donate to our charity partner Baitulmaal here: http://btml.us/thinkingmuslim This week on the thinking muslim we ask How did the Prophet (PBUH) navigate two superpowers and the fractured tribes of Arabia - and what does that teach us about power today? What is power really about? And what is it not? In this episode with Wadah Khanfar, we explore the geopolitics and strategy of Prophetic leadership. We unpack what power truly means in Islam - not domination or ego, but justice, restraint, strategic astuteness, and removing barriers to truth for human flourishing.

    Ramadan Is a Revolution of the Self | Sami Hamdi

    This Ramadan, help us expand our Muslim media project here: Become a Monthly Member: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/membership Donate via LaunchGood: https://www.launchgood.com/v4/campaign/grow_the_thinking_muslim_podcast In this short segment, Sami Hamdi emphasises that the month in which the Qur’an was revealed is a month of action, not rest. He explains that Ramadan was never intended to be a period of passivity or withdrawal, but a time rooted in purpose and transformation. The revelation itself came as a challenge to injustice and oppression, calling people to reform both themselves and the societies around them. By reminding us that the Qur’an descended in Ramadan, he highlights that this month is connected to movement, struggle, and moral clarity. The Prophet ﷺ did not suspend his mission during Ramadan. Rather, it was a time of intensified resolve and commitment. Fasting is therefore not about slowing down, but about disciplining the self so that one can act with greater strength, courage, and dedication to justice.
