October 29, 2024 Ep. 54: I’m a Muslim American and I Don’t Feel Like Voting
The political scene in America has been disturbing, distressing, and disheartening, and a lot of us don’t even feel the energy to vote. Mehak Jamil, a local activist and attorney from my hometown, talks about how important it is to vote in the upcoming election despite how hopeless it feels.

Have you felt disconnected from the Quran lately, or want to develop a closer relationship with the text?
