    EP 21 | Genocide in Gaza: What We Can Do? | Mohamad Habehh

    As the United Nations has reiterated multiple times, Israel is in violation of international law through its settlements. The Israeli government’s disproportionate response to Hamas’s October 7th attack has resulted in the United Nations declaring that  “there is an ongoing campaign by Israel resulting in crimes against humanity in Gaza.” They describe the situation in Gaza as an “occupation [that] needs to end” in which “there must be reparation, restitution and reconstruction, towards full justice for Palestinians” and a “call for prevention of genocide.” Amnesty International has declared that the Israeli government is guilty of “war crimes” due to their mass extermination of civilians in Gaza, and the leveling of entire apartment complexes in their unfolding ethnic cleansing campaign of the Palestinian people. This is in addition to their 280 page report from 2021 concluding that the Israeli government is guilty of apartheid and has violated international law. In light of all of this, the question arises: what can we do? Nihal sat down with Mohamad Habehh at American Muslims for Palestine to speak about how people througout the world can stand up for the people of Palestine. Mohamad Habehh serves as the Director of Community Outreach of American Muslims for Palestine NJ Chapter. He is a graduate from Rutgers-Newark where he studied social work and political science and served as the President of the Students for Justice in Palestine student organization on campus. He also serves as an advisor to the city of Hackensack on the access for all board and is an active community member in the Islamic Center of Passaic County where he serves as a volunteer coordinator and educator. Mohamad is currently working on achieving his Master’s degree from Al-Manara institute in Islamic studies. -- Faith in Fine Print is hosted by Nihal Khan and is the official podcast of Maktab Academy. ⁠⁠www.maktabacademy.net

    EP 20 | Rewarding Genocide: The Ethnic Cleansing of Bosnian Muslims & the Moral Failing of the United Nations | Dr. Ermin Sinanović, Nihal Khan

    This week marked the 28th commemoration of the Srebrenica genocide. In this episode, Nihal speaks to Dr. Ermin Sinanović, a political scientist who is an expert on Bosnia and Herzegovina, and is also trained as an Islamic scholar from the International Islamic University of Malaysia. Nihal and Dr. Ermin discussed the state of Muslims in Bosnia after the break up of Yugoslavia, Serbian and Croat aggression against the Bosniak Muslim population, and what the future looks like for Bosnia. They also discussed the moral failing of the United Nations in safeguarding the Bosniak Muslims, and how the Dutch soldiers stationed in Bosnia allowed the genocide to occur. While this was a difficult episode to record, many Muslims either do not know what happened to Bosnian Muslims barely 30 years ago, or they have forgotten. As such, we must continue to keep their memory alive through such discussions. -- Ermin Sinanović is executive director of the Center for Islam in the Contemporary World (CICW) at Shenandoah University, where he is also Scholar in Residence. He holds a MA and PhD in Political Science from Syracuse University, two bachelor's degrees (Islam and Political Science) from the International Islamic University Malaysia, and a master's degree from the International Institute of Islamic Thought and Civilization (ISTAC) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

    EP 19 | Between Granada & Istanbul: Reclaiming the Muslim Historical Narrative | Abu Ayyub Marulanda

    Knowing our history as Muslims is imperative when it comes to knowing our narrative. The importance of understanding our collective Muslim history is directly correlated with how we engage with our faith. Do we accept our sources to be true and telling of our past, or should we trust orientalist sources to recall our own narrative? In this episode, Abu Ayyub Marulanda discusses the importance of engaging with Islamic history to recall our past after living with historical amnesia. While speaking about how Muslim Spain allowed him to reconnect with his ancestry and lineage, Abu Ayyub and Nihal discussed the need to read Muslim sources, becoming familiar with them, and reclaiming Muslim agency. They also reflected about life in Istanbul and how the Ottomans discovered the grave of the companion Abu Ayyub al-Ansari.Abu Ayyub Marulanda is a teacher and student of Islamic history. He writes and teaches at InTheShadeOfTheMinaret.com, Imam Ghazali Institute, and offers tours of Istanbul at Istanbul Spiritual Tours. Having spent over a decade overseas, he loves to explore the vestiges of our legacy. Combining this passion for history, together with travel and the sacred sciences; he teaches history in a fun and informative way. An avid reader, he loves bringing little-known sources to the classroom, while his illustrations and maps adorn course slides and posts. He currently lives in Istanbul with his family.

    EP 18 | Cultural Production, Making Deliberate Communities, & the Loneliness Pandemic | Imam Ahmad Deeb, Ahmed Askary

    This episode covers the macro and micro elements associated with producing deliberate communities. How do Muslims construct deliberate communities? How has industrialization lead to the pandemic of loneliness on a grand scale? How do we curate culture organically? How does Islam function in an urban vs. suburban setting? These are some of the questions that Imam Ahmad Deeb and Ahmed Askary discussed with Nihal Khan. They also touched on how Istanbul is a microcosm of the problems of the ummah, the power of Islam in urban environments, and how we can move communities past dysfunction and rivalry, through processing the past and being mercifully honest with each other. Imam Ahmad Deeb is the co-founder of Itqaan Institute and Pillars Seminary. He studied the Islamic sciences under his father Shaykh Abdullah Deeb and with scholars in South Africa. He holds a BA in Psychology from the University of Central Florida and a MA in Islamic Studies and Leadership from the Bayan Islamic Graduate School.
