  • May الله ta’aalaa reward everyone involved in the production of this podcast

    From Ustashi Dr. Shadee Al Masry just spitting nothin’ but facts, to the patreons paying even the smallest tier, to the renters living in the rooms (above?); may الله reward you all immensely. My Dua is nothing compared to the angels who already make Dua for you, I just want to send you my appreciation - which means nothing.

  • LOVE THIS PODCAST

    Can you guys bring back the whole team? I like solo Shaykh Shadee because he’s witty and funny on his own but there’s a different experience listening to him crack on with his boys (Sidi Alex especially - he needs his own podcast wallah).

    Best Shaykh to grace the internet. I hope you guys realise this platform and everybody behind the scenes who made it possible thank you. This has enlivened me and my besties discussions and got us to read up on our deen. I’m now a hafidh al quran now

  • Intellectually and spiritually stimulating

    This is my number one podcast. I listen to it live when I wake up for Fajr every morning.

    If I miss it I have this podcast to catch it.

    Dr Shadee is intellectually and spiritually stimulating. No BS just facts. He’s a gem.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Strength of the Prophet's Heart ﷺ || NBF 610 || Imam Safwan Eid
Q: Are Muslims obligated to explain themselves to non-Muslims whenever asked about practices they may see us doing?
No, it's not obligatory to justify every practice; you can politely direct inquirers to reliable sources or your local scholars, and focus on constructive dialogue rather than exhausting arguments.
The Strength of the Prophet's Heart ﷺ || NBF 610 || Imam Safwan Eid
Q: Do you have any advice for people who have a very hard time choosing their direction in life?
Focus on aligning your purpose with Allah's will, learning through Qur'an and Seerah, and recognizing that Allah inspires your path at the right time; it's about pursuing a calling that serves faith and humanity rather than chasing urgency alone.
Mo' Money Mo' Dawa w/ Tariq Patanam || NBF 614 || Ayyan Rahman
Q: Why is there a focus on merchants as a model in Islamic history?
Because merchants historically embodied trust, value delivery, and ethical conduct, which align with the goals of Islamic finance to promote fair exchange and build community prosperity.
Beware of Hypocrites in the Umma || NBF 602 || Dr Shadee Elmasry
Q: How do you protect yourself from hypocrisy as a Muslim?
Hypocrisy is combated by sustained engagement with ilm (knowledge), dhikr (remembrance of God), and fiqh through sitting in majalis and maintaining strong private remembrance of Allah; also by nurturing sincere community ties and avoiding arrogance or pride that leads to judging others or inflating one's own status.
Who Were the Disciples? || NBF 604 || Dr Shadee Elmasry
Q: What is the capacity concept and how does it affect taklif?
Capacity is determined by what Allah requires, not by subjective personal belief; those who have due diligence are judged by the obligations they could reasonably fulfill.
