Reviews

4.2 out of 5 stars from 16 ratings
  • Confusing

    While the presentation of this series appears to be an in depth, nuanced, modern reflection of Shia Islam, several of the topics addressed are confusing to listeners. Semantics and linguistics often override a clear summation of the core beliefs of Shia Fiqh. I prefer the Thaqlain app, which provides extreme clarity in terms of lectures, videos and content on mainstream Shia beliefs.
