Season Finale! Believing in the Unseen with Dr. Omar Suleiman
In Surat al-Hujurat verse 18, Allah (SWT) says: “Surely Allah knows the Unseen of the heavens and earth. And Allah is All-Seeing of what you do.” Al-Ghaib, or the Unseen, refers to knowledge that is only known to Allah, such as knowledge about the angels and jinn, heaven and hell, and fate and predestination. Why do we struggle to connect with and be motivated by the Unseen? Can we prove the existence of the Unseen? How can connecting with the Unseen world help us come closer to God?

Building Prophetic Communities for Women, with Usts. Lobna Mulla & Maryam Amir
The Prophet (S) once critically said, “O people! Some of you scare people away [from faith].” He was addressing the best generation of Muslims when he said this, so it certainly still applies today. Are Muslim communities pushing women away today? What do we lose when women are disengaged from Islamic institutions? How can we improve access and connection to the tradition for Muslim women? Earlier this season we talked about The State of Masculinity. This week, join host Mohamad Zaoud in conversation with Ustadha Lobna Mulla and Ustadha Maryam Amir as they discuss how we can make our communities better for women.📨 Share your feedback! https://yqn.io/podcastfeedback📫 Join the newsletter! https://yqn.io/doubletake-email-signup👍🏻 Follow us on Instagram! https://instagram.com/yaqeenpodcast

Earthquake in Türkiye and Syria: "Why didn't God stop it?" - Special with Sh. Mohammed Elshinawy
On February 6th, a devastating earthquake hit Türkiye and Syria. Over 12,000 lives have been lost, and thousands more have been injured and displaced. When tragedies and disasters occur, it’s understandable to wonder, “Why did God let this happen?” Are natural disasters a form of punishment from God? Are they a warning to turn back to Him? If Allah is Merciful, why does He allow suffering to exist? Join host Mohamad Zaoud as he discusses these questions and more with Sh. Mohammad Elshinawy, author of the Yaqeen paper, “Why Do People Suffer? God’s Existence & the Problem of Evil.”📨 Share your feedback! https://yqn.io/podcastfeedback📫 Join the newsletter! https://yqn.io/doubletake-email-signup👍🏻 Follow us on Instagram! https://instagram.com/yaqeenpodcast
