June 12, 2020Learn, unlearn & relearn #Racism I'm back with my regular guest and co-host Mahfuz. Both being South Asian Bangladeshi's born and bred in Britain. We experienced racism in different forms, mine from being a minority from Surrey and his from authorities within Inner City London. In addition to our own experiences, we take an honest look into the racism in our own communities, the influence of media and the long imprint of colonialism. This is such a deep rooted subject that we will continue our discussion in another episode. Tune in!

As Ramadan comes to an end we discuss what we can do to continue the marathon. Look at the ways to stay connected and committed to the cause and how there are plenty of opportunities to fast outside Ramadan. We decode laziness and highlight how fortunate we are to be in the information age and so much more. Tune in!

The mathematician highlighted the Covid alert level which is generated by the rate of infection + the number of infections. This scale allows him to calculate whether the NHS would be overwhelmed with Covid 19 patients or not. BJ also emphasised a conditional plan where the lockdown will not be lifted yet there will be no cap on stepping outside. We wonder what this means for those that can’t WFH yet require public transport to commute. We express our growing concern of needing a vaccine. We question everything in his three step plan. Tune in! Backing beating by Lakey Inspired - Blue Boi....more May 07, 2020Understanding #RamadanOnLock New 4 part series every Thursday during Ramadan. In this line up I am joined by Mahfuz. We look at the positives of this month and how good the fast is going. The ease of distractions and making conscious shifts to personal development. The negative connotations of seasonal muslims. Unifying the different age groups at Masjid committees.How we claim to love our prophets but true love comes from studying the sunnah. Mahfuz recommends books such as “The Sealed Nectar" and “Shamaa’il Tirmidhi”. We touch base on courses and so much more. Tune in!

I touch base with my pal Dal (clean shaven) who planned a 17 day trip but 10 weeks on he's still there. The impact covid 19 has had on his taxi firm and the adaptive approach to stay afloat.We discuss the angle India is taking to tackle the pandemic where the country is split into zones with specific rules for each area.He relives the time he was taken into custody. We look into corruption and managing the move between cities in order to quarantine with loved ones. I question the death toll considering the country has a population of 1.3b and the Corona free states in the southern region. Dal also shares some good news.

We look at how our Ramadan is affected during this lockdown.We discuss how to turn a negative situation in a positive outcome. From pilot mode to jumping in the driver seat, such as leading congregational prayers to study circles (Halaqa).Setting achievable goals, whether to perform good deeds in secret to protect sincerity or publically to inspire others.Utilising technology to adapt to our circumstances, especially masjids (mosques) due to lack of footfall/donations.Running a business and finding a way to survive the pandemic.The negative dietary choices we make culturally and how we suffer whilst in congregation because of it and the fine balance between fasting and fitness.

He breaks down the 12 day ordeal and how he got through it thanks to the support of his loved ones. Wasim is from Sweden where there is no lockdown so we compare that to countries that are on lockdown (UK). We discuss the impact this has on economies and how this will breed a generation that lives pay check to pay check to start saving.

He is a new dad who's 3 month old daughter is more popular than he is. We compare the level of punishments our governments have set during this pandemic, if we will ever return to the norm or if this will create a new age post lock down. We focus on WFH, how we wouldn't have it any other way and how businesses are forced to play catch up. I question why all other news is on hold whilst the media only report on covid 19 and finally we reflect on the things we miss doing due to the lock down. Tune in! Backing beat by EFTOTHEKAY
...more April 20, 2020Accountability #Lockdown In this line up we have my boy Naush, he has many nicknames but we’ll stick to his government tag. He thought it was a video call and had a haircut (awkward) nonetheless he managed to present his ideologies. We spoke on mindfulness, honesty in our flaws and taking accountability of our actions. Naush took it one step further and expressed what he would do to manage the pandemic if he were in charge. Tune in!
