Mindful Meeting

We introduce our first therapist guest on the show, sister Aiman Merali. She runs her own private practice, and was a delight to have on the show. She educated me on the importance of premarital counseling, when to initiate the process, how it is done, the benefits of having these types of counseling sessions, etc.  As Muslims, are there specific types of therapist we need to seek? Do we seek therapy only when something is "broken"? What about Istikhira? But what happens when Allah gives the green light to marry someone, what is the point of the counseling at that point?

Tune in to find out more. Believe you me, she does not disappoint.

Enjoy! Thank you, and God bless you all! 

And finally, remember to treat each other with kindness.

Pastor Mike is back again, and this time we are chatting about what it takes to be a Godly Father.  Mike revisits the birth of his first child and how he freaked out upon finding out his wife was pregnant. He shares with me his list of qualities of a Godly Father. We tackle why a lot of fathers are absent from their homes (and kids). What about Satan? What role does he play in all of this?

In this lengthy episode, I sit down with four awesome and spiritually uplifting guests. Jew, Christian and Muslim. We all come together and discuss the one thing we all love to talk about: God. We converse about the way we converse to God, what is life without God, do we find ourselves drawing nearer to God during adversity or prosperity. What advice would we give to our younger or older selves as it relates to the Al-Mighty.  We share our journey on how we found God, from suicidal thoughts to loving life (and God). Khadija shares her journey from scoliosis and rebellious ways to finding God. Asha shares her two major car collisions and her suicidal thoughts to finding the beauty of life. Emeth recalls the time when he had to take many buses to five different colleges, and how that time of solitude led him to God. And finally, Yvonne takes us back to her childhood as she narrates her Christian background but wasn't brought up in the Church. The story of Solomon had a profound effect on her. Tune in to this inspiring episode to find out more.

I am joined by two artistically talented guests this week as we discuss art and how it relates to spirituality. Are art and spirituality mutually exclusive? Should art be about gaining profit or expressing one's self? What about the Quran and its Author? Is the Quran a poet and thus Allah a poet? How is art in general manifested in the universe? All these and more are discussed in this informative and entertaining episode. Tune in. Don't forget to rate and leave a review.
