What can we learn about ourselves from the daily flood of images of horror in Gaza? In this episode, we reflect on thankfulness and the heartwork that is required for us to positively impact the current global crisis.

How can one make sense of the carnage in Gaza? In this episode, the hosts reconvene to reflect on how to process these tragedies through the lens of the Surah al-Kahf.

Imanwire celebrates its 5th anniversary as all the original hosts get together for the first time to catch up, talk about turning 40 and discuss the process of physical and spiritual transformation.

Zaynab Ansari, Mohamed Ghilan and Dawud Walid convene to consider the role of Muslims in an increasingly fractured social media landscape, the ethics of disagreement, and refining adab (conduct and manners) in our interactions.

Shaykh Yahya Rhodus discusses building a routine of remembrance of God in our busy lives, finding presence in prayer, and shares a daily regimen of dhikr for the family.

Imam Mohamed Magid joins the ImanWire podcast to share his insights in developing a connection with the Qur'an and cultivating communities centered on the reflection and study of the book of Allah.

It's no secret that many Muslim institutions, while founded with good intentions, have become bastions for ego and politics, and beset by dysfunction. Should our mosques be run like businesses to fix the current malaise? Shaykh Yasir Fahmy returns to the podcast to lay down the foundational principles needed to establish a model for ethical governance in our organizations.

How we feel often dictates what we do. What then, when we don't "feel" the spiritual elation we expect or crave in acts of worship? Should we leave it if we don't feel it? Dr. Mohamed Ghilan returns to the podcast to discuss finding connection in a modern world that breeds disconnection and distraction.

Dr. Yamina Bougenaya joins the podcast for a thoughtful discussion with insights into Islamic metaphysics, science and getting started on the spiritual path.

Dr. Bouguenaya is a scholar of Qur'an and Islamic theology and the founder and director of Receiving Nur. She has published extensively on Qur'anic hermeneutics, Islamic spirituality, Islam and science, and the thought of Said Nursi. She holds a PhD in theoretical physics from Durham University in the UK.

What role do aesthetics play in spiritual spaces? Ozayr Saloojee, Professor at Carleton University in the Azrieli School of Architecture & Urbanism, discusses the mastery of the Ottoman architect Sinan and what we can learn from history as Muslims attempt to cultivate their own modern style today.
