Hajj peels away privilege, step by step. Someone might start out in an air-conditioned tent in Mina, but in the end, everyone is picking pebbles out of the dirt in Muzdalifah.

Hajj is the Great Equalizer | Imam Tom Facchine

An Islamic podcast that breaks down the ideologies that are challenging Islam today, and works to re-center an authentic Islamic worldview. How do you know that what you believe is Islamically sound? Every belief and opinion is rooted in one particular worldview or another. Sometimes these worldviews are so ingrained in our society that they are difficult to detect, let alone challenge. Islam has better ways than other worldviews to address the issues currently facing us, from theological issues such as the ways we imagine God, to social issues such as sexuality and gender identity, to political issues and everything in between.
