Neuralink

Neuralink, a company founded by Elon Musk, is developing a brain computer interface (BCI)

that would be implanted into the region of the brain in charge of controlling movement. As they start their human trial, the company has faced both scrutiny and intrigue. Join us

to explore the revolutionary potential of this technology, whilst we also look at its possible security and ethical implications.

Thinking Well of Others

Assuming the worst in others can be 'read' in brain scans. Activity in the brain's "ventromedial prefrontal cortex" differs between people who assume the worst in social situations and those who don't, a study finds. Join us to discuss how we could think well and with an Islamic perspective on thinking ill and how we would purify our thoughts into positive ones.

Black Mould

New research has revealed that almost two thirds (62%) of people claim to have had an issue with mould in their home at least once and; about 3.8% flats and homes are classified as having severe damp in UK. Complaints about mold in social housing have doubled in the past two years. Damp and mold causes serious serious physical and mental health effects and could be fatal in some cases.

Unislamic Customs

We will cover the 6th Condition of Bai'at which contains that the initiate shall refrain from following un-Islamic customs and lustful inclinations and shall completely submit himself/herself to the authority of the Holy Qur’an; and that he/she shall make the Word of God and the sayings of the Holy Prophet Muhammad sa his/her guiding principles in every walk of his/her life.
