Who is the Deep State? Are they shadowy characters hidden away from the public? The Illuminati? Or Reptilians in human costumes?

There has been an increased mention of the Deep State in mainstream media over recent months, and in particular in reference to its opposition to former US President Donald Trump. In this week's Podcast we delve into this notion of a Deep State.

Following the year of sorrow, Allah (SWT) blessed the Messenger (SAW) with Israa' wal Miraaj where he was taken from Masjid al-Haram to Masjid Al-Aqsa and ascended through the 7 heavens to Allah (SWT) in one night.

This event highlighted the leadership and finality of Muhammad (SAW) amongst all the great Prophets of Allah (AS) and the blessed status of Al-Aqsa and its surroundings. We discuss how the Sahabah and the great Muslim leaders of the past understood the significance of Al-Aqsa and strived to ensure it was protected under the authority of Islam, however the leaders of today seek to maintain its occupation by normalising relations with the Zionists and pave the way for the the US Deal of the Century to be implemented.

Calls to ban political Islam are gaining momentum in the West, following recent comments by Austria's Chancellor Sebastian Kurz and France's President Emanuel Macron. They have charged political Islam with causing "terrorism", with their real objective being to change Islam and secularise Muslims.

In this week's Podcast we explain the importance of the political aspect of Islam, why the West is threatened by it and what Muslims must do to counteract this open attack on Islam.

Special Guests: Aftab and Rashel.

Three great calamities befell the Messenger (SAW) in the year of sorrow. The death of his close uncle Abu Talib, followed by the death of his beloved wife, Khadijah (RA), and finally the humiliating rejection by Banu Thaqif after he approached them for protection.

Although these events would have caused immense personal grief and physical harm for the Messenger (SAW), to what extent did these events impact the Da'wah and mission of the Messenger (SAW)?

France's secular attack on Islam and the Messenger (SAW) has unified the Ummah in her defence of the Messenger (SAW) through the boycott of French products and mass protests, causing Macron to back track and soften his stance.

In this episode we discuss the impact of these efforts and whether the recent "terrorist attacks" in France and Austria are a deliberate attempt to distract the Muslims from taking a unified stance against France and Secularism.

Special Guests: Jahirul and Rashel.

In an increasingly hostile environment with no end to the persecution at the hands of Quraysh in sight, the Messenger (SAW) allowed the Muslims to migrate to Abyssinia for protection under a just king, An-Najashi.

However, were the migrations to Abyssinia only about fleeing persecution or was there a political objective that the Messenger (SAW) sought to achieve?

Sudan are the latest country to Normalise relations with "Israel" this week after Saudi Arabia paid the £259m compensation to the US to remove Sudan from the US list of State Sponsors of terrorism.

In this week's Podcast we discuss these Normalisations, as part of Trump's Deal of the Century and how they pave the path for the permanent extinction of Palestine. We also discuss the role of these treacherous Muslim rulers and whether Saudi Arabia will be next.

On the 2nd of October 2020 French President Emmanuel Macron described Islam as a religion in crisis all over the world in his high-profile address on battling Islamic "radicalism" and the "parallel society" of Muslims in France.

In this Podcast, we analyse this latest attack on Islam and Muslims in France and discuss what Macron is referring to when he mentions 'Islamic Separatism' and his proposed laws to "defend the republic and its values...".

Special Guest: Rashel.

The Ummah is suffering one of its darkest periods in the history of Islam, whether it be the persecution of Muslims in Palestine, Iraq, Syria, Burma or Kashmir. In response, many sincere Muslims have resorted to charity and dedicated their time, wealth and efforts to raise vast sums to help their brothers and sisters suffering in war-torn and poverty stricken lands, but is charity or Sadaqah the solution?

In this episode we examine the concept of charity and deconstruct how Sadaqah should be understood correctly and its purpose in Islam.

In an attempt to end the mission of the Messenger ﷺ, the Quraysh initiated an economic and social boycott against the Muslims and the Hashemites causing immense suffering.

In this episode we discuss how the hostile environment generated by the Quraysh led to the conversion of two of Islam’s greatest prior to the 3-year siege that the Muslims withstood, continuing with their noble mission.
