Episode 026 - Cybersecurity & Day-to-Day Life [ft. Mishkat Suleiman]

In this episode of Ihya502, host Hamza Foy discusses the matter of misattributing made-up or innovated hadiths or knowledge of the Deen centered around a narration found in Sahih Bukhari about the consequences of intentionally misattributing something to the Prophet (SAW). This reminder, brief in its content, is intended to remind all of us about being careful about our sources when we learn our Deen, being cautious about sharing the floods of information that is found all over the internet, and overall thinking before one speaks [or shares in our modern cases].▬ Announcement  ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬1.

Episode 025 - Islamic Reminder Concerning Misattribution in Islam

In this episode of Ihya502, Hamza Foy sits with Mishkat Suleiman to discuss the book 'Moral Capitalism: Why Fairness Won't Make Us Poor' by Steven Pearlstein. This book is an incredibly easy read for such a complex topic like economics and discusses a number of assumptions made by the general public in the United States about capitalism and our current economic system. We discuss a few of the more interesting and thought-provoking tidbits such as pre-distribution vs. re-distribution, the difference between our modern economy vs older and simpler economies, and the need for more education surrounding economics and macro-level mathematics.▬ Relevant Links  ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬1.

Episode 016 - Muslim Musings

In this episode of Islamic Reminders, we discuss the importance of trying to retain the knowledge, good acts, &amp; habits we gained during Ramadan even after this blessed month. It is of utmost importance that we understand that virtue is not in pretending that we do not have desires and inclinations to return to what bad we may have left off during Ramadan - but virtue is in responding strongly (with taqwa) against returning to those vices, bad habits, and desires which we have left.▬ Qu'ran &amp; Hadith References  ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬1. "And she certainly determined [to seduce] him, and he would have inclined to her had he not seen the proof [i.e., sign] of his Lord. And thus [it was] that We should avert from him evil and immorality. Indeed, he was of Our chosen servants.", Qu'ran 12:24.2. ""There was a man who never did any good deed, but he used to lend to people and he would say to this messenger: "Take what can be paid easily and leave what is difficult. . .", Sahih hadith in Sunan an-Nasa'i 4694.3. "Be moderate and adhere to moderation, for there is no one among you who will be saved by his deeds.” They said: “Not even you, O Messenger of Allah?” He said: “Not even me. Unless Allah encompasses me with mercy and grace from Him.”, Sahih hadith in Sunan ibn Majah 4201.4. "4. "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Allah says, 'If My slave intends to do a bad deed then (O Angels) do not write it unless he does it; if he does it, then write it as it is, but if he refrains from doing it for My Sake, then write it as a good deed (in his account). (On the other hand) if he intends to do a good deed, but does not do it, then write a good deed (in his account), and if he does it, then write it for him (in his account) as ten good deeds up to seven-hundred times.", hadith in Sahih Bukhari.▬ Links  ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬You can find this podcast's website at http://bit.ly/ihya-502​​Check us out on Spotify: http://bit.ly/ihya502-spotify​​Check us out on Apple Podcasts: http://bit.ly/ihya502-applepod​​Join the Louisville Muslims News Whatsapp: https://bit.ly/3b2D7rp​Subscribe to the Louisville Lip Email Newsletter: https://bit.ly/louisville-lip

In this episode of Islamic Reminders, we are still in the first half of Ramadan and there is a reminder to seek forgiveness from others that we have wronged.

Episode 010 - Reverts, Naseeha, & Culture

In this episode of Reading between the Lines, Hamza &amp; Mishkat dig into one of the most riveting books concerning world mythology &amp; fiction, 'The Hero with a Thousand Faces' by author Joseph Campbell.
