In this episode I explore some basic examples that face veiling was apart of Christian and Jewish writings. I mainly explore early Christian writings

In this episode I’m going to talk about Ancient Greek face veiling and European face veiling practices. I’m also going to butcher a lot of words. Enjoy! This talk is based off of chapter one of my book Demystifying the Niqab.

In this podcast I am going to begin to unpack the anti-veiling laws around the world more particularly in the Western nations. This is based off of my book Demystifying the niqab, now available on Amazon.

So I published a book on the face veil or the niqab! Listen in to find out more about it; and well listen to me freaking out about how terrible I think my book is! Anyway if you are interested in the book or atleast interested in checking it out you can find it on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Demystifying-Niqab-History-Against-Important-ebook/dp/B09GWC7PFR/ref=sr_1_1?crid=287LT106M9CYQ&keywords=Demystifying+the+niqab&qid=1643673505&sprefix=demystifying+the+niqab%2Caps%2C96&sr=8-1

What is race and how are Muslims racialized? In this podcast I go the concept of race and how Christian normalcy affects how we view ourselves in a racialized way. One of the books I mentioned in this podcast is Fearing the Black Body by Sabrina Strings (which I’m pretty sure I butcher the title! I apologize now!!).

Welcome to the episode on orientalism! A long overdue brief explanation on orientalism! If you are still confused at the end of this podcast then I recommend checking out my previous episode on spiritual theft!

Many of the things target towards people seeking fulfillment comes from the orient. Today I talk briefly about spiritual colonialism using the book Buying Buddha, Selling Rumi by Sophia Rose Arjana...check out her book!!

Did you know that Rumi poem have been changed? The Islamic influence sponged...How many of you know Rumi was Muslim? In this episode I will be talking about how Rumi’s work is changed for a Western audience. If you want a good translation of Rumi’s poem? Here is a link https://www.amazon.com/Masnavi-Book-Oxford-Worlds-Classics/dp/0199552312/ref=mp_s_a_1_12?dchild=1&keywords=rumi&qid=1593047471&sr=8-12

In this segment I will discuss shed light on how African Americans in the beginning of the 1900s began to convert/revert to Islam. Did you know the Pakistani Islamic sect called Ahmadiyya sent missionaries to America? That there were African American Islamic groups besides the Nation of Islam?

Muslims have always been apart of America since 1492. They sailed on the ships, explored the new world, and were enslaved here. They were not silent and this history has been covered up or not explored, until recent times. Sit back and enjoy some interesting history. ******I do not have a good microphone at the moment, so I apologize for my audio. I am also newly started out and will continue to fix things and make better content.********
