01/28/20 • 18 min
On this journey, I question the way we look at Islamic history.
Do we glorify past nations too much? - What can we learn from being more mature about our discussions around Islamic history? - What implications could this have for our approach to politics and our own role in the world today?

Mini-ep. Is this one mispronounced name too far?
Book Nomad: Reading the World
04/14/20 • 19 min
This mini episode is a bit different in tone from the usual. I take my experience listening to the audiobook of The Kingdom of Copper by S.A. Chakraborty as a launchpad to think about where and how we, as Muslims in creative industries, need to really up our game.
