We made it to 50!

We talk about Shaun King, who recently converted to Islam. Should Muslims entrust hundreds of thousands of dollars to a man who has a Saul Goodman-style approach to charity? Our answer may shock you.

Also in this episode is our second installment of what is sure to be a regular segment: Fatwa Frenzy! We discuss a 10th-Century legal case in which a Christian living in Muslim Spain tries to use the legal system to meet God.

We give our review of Dune 2, then we go on to discuss our Ramadan goals. We debut our new segment FATWA FRENZY! Lastly, we update on the investigative reporting by The Intercept on the NYT's propagandistic piece titled 'Screams Without Words."

We are trying to bring more guests on the show, so if you have suggestions, please DM us on Instagram (the_field_between_pod), but also review us wherever you listen to podcasts so we can make the proposition of appearing on our tiny podcast a compelling one.

Bunch of items at the top. We briefly go through some Gaza news, including the horrific self-immolation that happened in DC earlier today. Yasmine then discusses the legacy of Malcolm X.

Yasmine does a quick roundup of Palestine media, then we have a brief, unplanned discussion about despair.

Just the two of us again. Catching up on almost a month of Israel's war crimes and propaganda efforts.

We were thrilled to talk to author Abdul Rahman Latif about his newly published book 'Vultures In The House of Silence,' which combines elements of Islamic history and traditional story telling into a new and fun dark fantasy set at the end of times.

In addition to being a published author, Abdul Rahman Latif is the Muslim chaplain at Dartmouth College and a PhD candidate at Columbia University. You can find his new book on Amazon, Audible, Barnes & Noble, and Apple Books.

Friend and lawyer, Zainab, joins us for broad conversation about Muslim marriage in a legal context. We focused mostly on where things might break down, and Zainab gives a really comprehensive review of some of the things that could go awry.

This is a good listen for anyone, especially young Muslims, who is thinking of getting married. I think hearing Zainab will give you some crucial things to consider.

The very end of the recording cuts off abrubtly. I'm not gonna say who did, or whose fault it is that they stopped recording early, but just know that if you point your finger at me, there are three more fingers pointing back at you.

We talk about the crucial New York Times piece about the brave young women who are shattering glass ceilings in the IDF. Really inspirational stuff. Almost makes you forget that in the background of it all is a horrific genocide being metted out by these girl-bosses.

Rate and subscribe! We're going to do our best to do more guest episodes and other fun stuff as we grow this baby.
