A podcast dedicated to Muslim Men self development. Hosted by Fahad (@AmericanZabiha) and Ammar (@BroBuffBeard).

    Mufti Muhammad Ibn Muneer on Maddhabs

    Mufti Muhammad Ibn Muneer on Maddhabs

    We talk with the brilliant Mufti Muhammad Muneer for an off-the-cuff 40 minute long chat while he was visiting Columbus. Fahad was with him in person while Ammar was in his bedroom somewhere in Arkansas.


    We discuss his 'methodology' on fiqh, how an Islamic fiqhi school of thought is like a martial art, and why we shouldn't zealously cling to one fiqh school, and we chat a bit at the end why he carried a particular worn out book (other than the Quran of course) everywhere while he was here.

    This week we bring the nightmare of atheists, Asadullah Al Andalusi. With his knowledge of philosophy and religion, he refutes atheism and ex-Muslims alike. Today we get to interview him to get a closer look into his personality and also address why Muslims are typically leaving Islam.


    We talk about why Ex-Muslims are stupid, Scientific Miracles, Philosophical Pragmatism, Islamic Futurism, Robert Spencer, and the struggles in being Muslim academic trying to promote educated discourse.


    We touch on all of this with Asadullah Ali Al-Andalusi.


    Asadullah Ali Al-Andalusi is a fellow at Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research. He acquired a Bachelors of Arts from Benedictine University in Western Philosophy, Masters from the International Islamic University of Malaysia in Philosophy, Phd.

    Imam Youssef Soussi on #TeddyBearIslam

    Imam Youssef Soussi on #TeddyBearIslam

    #TeddyBearIslam is not only just a clever gimmick but it is in fact a thoughtful metaphor for the socioreligious phenomena of avoiding the uncomfortable truths and topics associated with Islam by Muslim community leaders; leaders hide these truths simply because they don't want to cause discomfort. In this podcast, we bring on Imam Youssef Soussi who is an Imam in Minneapolis, Minnesota who has experience in community leadership. These are some of the questions we tackle in this video:
    Why do we call it #teddybearislam, what is it? Where did #teddybearislam come from, why does it exist? Why is #teddybearislam a problem? Why are the leaders of #teddybearislam perpetuating #teddybearislam? How are leaders being affected by #teddybearislam? Isn't #teddybearislam part of the sunnah? From a practical perspective, how can we get rid of #teddybearislam, what steps can WE take and what should our leaders do?
    This podcast will hopefully change what it means to be to be truly unapologetically Muslim.
