Why does it feel like nothing makes us happy anymore? Why are anxiety, depression, and addiction becoming such common struggles, and what role does our relationship with Allah play in our mental health? What is anxiety? What is addiction? What is depression?In this episode of The Ansari Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Fahad Khan to explore the intersection of Islamic psychology, conventional psychology, and mental health. We discuss how Islam approaches the human soul, the nature of our desires, and why understanding the spiritual dimensions of our struggles is essential to understanding ourselves.We explore the growing influence of pop psychology and the dangers of relying on social media for mental health advice, particularly when complex psychological issues are reduced to oversimplified explanations and trends. Dr. Fahad Khan also shares his perspective on how Islamic psychology complements conventional psychological practices and what he believes is missing from the modern conversation around mental health.The conversation dives deep into anxiety, depression, and addiction, examining the underlying issues that can drive people toward destructive behaviors. From drug addiction and pornography to the relationship between religiosity and substance abuse, we discuss why people turn to these behaviors, what they may be trying to escape, and how addressing the root causes is essential to meaningful recovery.We also explore the role of spirituality in maintaining mental health, the importance of understanding our desires, and how someone can approach recovery without simply treating the symptoms of their struggles. What does genuine healing look like? How can someone overcome addiction without falling back into old patterns? And what does Islam teach us about finding fulfillment in a world where so many people feel increasingly disconnected and unsatisfied?Whether you're struggling with your own mental health, trying to better understand addiction, or interested in how Islamic teachings can inform our approach to psychology, this conversation offers a deeper perspective on the connection between faith, the soul, and the human mind.JOIN OUR WEBSITE MEMBERSHIP! @ https://www.patreon.com/c/theansaripodcastCheck out our sponors!*The Debt Clinic*: https://www.Thedebtclinic.com/ansariProvision Capital: https://www.provisioncapital.com/ansari00:00 Intro00:27 Tiktok psychology05:21 Islamic psychology08:48 Our Partners10:25 History of Islamic psychology15:26 Why did Allah create addictions?19:26 What's happening when we desire something?25:00 After drugs..can you ever be happy again?32:13 More loneliness, drugs, porn & food38:42 Religious people who are addicts44:48 Are addicts sick people?48:13 What is depression and anxiety?51:18 The real reason people use drugs54:38 Secretly struggling with addiction?01:00:35 The goal of addiction recovery01:03:19 Are you a sex addict?01:05:00 They watched porn for 6 hrs/day01:14:44 Can someone become untreatable?1:17:40 Closing Statements#islamicpsychology #mentalhealth #anxietyanddepression #mentalhealthpodcast Listen on All Audio Platforms: https://tr.ee/JeX-ILYSyjFollow The Ansari Podcast:Instagram: https://instagram.com/ansaripodcastTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@theansaripodcastTwitter/X : https://twitter.com/ansaripodcast

What happens to Islam when machines become smarter than us?In this episode of The Ansari Podcast, Professor Shoaib Ahmed Malik explores how artificial intelligence could challenge the way Muslims understand consciousness, the soul, human uniqueness, Islamic scholarship, fiqh, and even the Qur’an.Could AI ever become conscious? If it did, would Islam have to rethink it's positioning at all?What happens when AI can give Islamic advice, retrieve hadith, compare legal opinions, and potentially outperform the average Muslim scholar in certain tasks? Who controls the Ai systems that future Muslims and muftis may rely on?We also explore one of the most provocative questions of the episode: Could AI produce something like the Qur’an? What actually makes the Qur’an miraculous, and is there an objective standard for its inimitability?This conversation goes far beyond technology. It is about the future of Islam, religious authority, human identity, and what AI may force us to reconsider about ourselves.

Would the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ use our modern financial system?In this powerful conversation, we explore a much bigger question than whether a Muslim can take out a mortgage in America: Would the Prophet ﷺ have accepted an economic system built around fiat currency, debt, and interest — or would he have worked to build an alternative?We break down the European Fiqh Council’s fatwa on conventional mortgages, the difference between the Prophet’s ﷺ approach in Mecca and Medina, and why establishing an independent Muslim marketplace became such an important priority after the Hijrah.The conversation then expands beyond mortgages into the foundations of Islamic economics and Islamic banking. What would a genuinely interest-free financial system look like? Can Muslims build alternatives to conventional banks? What role should gold and silver play in protecting wealth from inflation? And how should Muslim families think about debt, riba, home ownership, saving, and long-term financial planning?At the heart of the discussion is a larger question: instead of only asking how Muslims can function inside the existing financial system, should the Ummah be building institutions of its own?Whether you're thinking about a halal mortgage, conventional mortgage, Islamic home financing, riba, fiat currency, gold and silver, Islamic banking, or the future of Muslim economic independence, this conversation challenges us to rethink what a truly Islamic financial system could look like.Watch the Full Episode here: https://youtu.be/ou2GZyWLi8ESupport The Ansari Podcast: ⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/ansaripodcastMain Channel for Full Episodes: ⁨@TheAnsaripodcast⁩Follow The Ansari Podcast:Instagram: https://instagram.com/ansaripodcastTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@theansaripodcastTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/ansaripodcast#Islamicfinance #Islamicbanking #HalalMortgage #FiatCurrency #prophetmuhammad #wealth #finance

Does evolution disprove Islam? Was Adam the father of all humans or all hominids? And can the theory of evolution be reconciled with the Qur’an and Islam? In this episode of The Ansari Podcast, Dr. Shoaib Malik, Lecturer in Science and Religion at the University of Edinburgh, joins us to explore Islam and evolution, human origins, Prophet Adam, Darwinian evolution, and the relationship between science and religion and science and Islam. We ask some of the biggest questions surrounding Islam, evolution, and the origin of humanity: Where did human beings come from? What exactly does modern evolutionary science tell us about our ancestry? Were there human-like creatures before Adam? Was Adam biologically related to other hominids? And does accepting evolution conflict with the Qur’an?Dr. Shoaib Malik explains his theory of Adamic Exceptionalism, a framework for understanding Adam within the scientific evidence for human evolution while preserving the theological significance of Adam in Islam. Also...are humans related to monkeys or apes?From Al-Ghazali and Islamic philosophy to genetics, common ancestry, apes, hominids, and endogenous retroviruses (ERVs), we explore where Islamic theology and evolutionary biology overlap — and where the limits of science may begin.We also discuss whether believing in evolution is haram, whether there can be such a thing as “Islamic science,” the relationship between humans and jinn, historical Islamic discussions surrounding the Queen of Sheba, and some of the stranger questions surrounding human origins.Can Muslims accept evolution?Did humans evolve from apes?Were there other human species before Adam?Was Adam the first Homo sapiens?Can the Qur’an and modern science both be true?This is a conversation about Islam and science, evolution and religion, Adam and Eve, human evolution, Islamic theology, the Qur’an, genetics, anthropology, and the origins of mankind.JOIN OUR WEBSITE MEMBERSHIP! @ https://ansaripodcast.comThank You for Your Support!*The Debt Clinic*: https://www.Thedebtclinic.com/ansari*Provision Capital:* https://www.provisioncapital.com00:00 Intro01:59 Is There Anything in Science that Says God Doesn't Exist?05:24 Ghazali & Evolution?07:29 Our Partners09:02 Is Believing in Evolution Haram?18:30 Islam and Evolution Don't Disagree29:37 Humans Have Married Jinn?35:39 Was Queen of Sheba Half Jinn?!38:51 Humans, Apes & Jinn47:04 What Type of Human Was Adam?54:53 DEBATE: Is There Such Thing as "Islamic Science"?01:06:28 Final Thoughts01:07:37 Part 2 Sneak Peek*Listen on All Audio Platforms:* https://tr.ee/JeX-ILYSyj*Follow The Ansari Podcast**Instagram:* https://instagram.com/ansaripodcast*TikTok:* https://tiktok.com/@theansaripodcast*Twitter/X:* https://twitter.com/ansaripodcast#Islam #science #Evolution #Jinn #Adam

Muhammad explains why we aren’t simply our thoughts, how our past can shape the way we experience life, and how hardship can become part of our spiritual transformation.What do you do when you’ve made dua but feel like nothing is changing? How do you stop overthinking your future? Can you change your destiny? What does it actually mean to have tawakkul and trust that Allah has a plan for you?We also explore the stories of the Prophets and how their lives can help us understand the different states we experience within ourselves.If you’re struggling with anxiety, uncertainty, your faith, your purpose, or fear about what’s coming next, this episode offers a deeper Islamic perspective on finding peace, strengthening your relationship with Allah, and learning to trust what you cannot yet see.JOIN OUR WEBSITE MEMBERSHIP! @ https://ansaripodcast.comThank You for Your Support!*The Debt Clinic*: https://www.mydebtclinic.com/ansari*Provision Capital:* https://www.provisioncapital.com00:00 The Quran Rewires Your Subconscious11:52 Our Partners13:26 Change what’s within…21:12 Can You Convince Allah to Change Your Destiny?30:20 Can You Speak Things into Existence?40:27 How do You Live with yourself when so Sinful?49:25 What if You've Made Dua but Lost Hope?58:46 What if Your past comes to chase you?01:01:50 Final Thoughts01:02:24 Speed Round Questions01:07:01 Connecting to Quranic Dua01:15:30 Outro#spirituality #islam #motivation #quran #selfimprovement #subconsciousreprogramming #tawakkul #innergrowth #wealth #rizq #islamicmotivation *Listen on All Audio Platforms:* https://tr.ee/JeX-ILYSyj*Follow The Ansari Podcast**Instagram:* https://instagram.com/ansaripodcast*TikTok:* https://tiktok.com/@theansaripodcast*Twitter/X:* https://twitter.com/ansaripodcast
