al-Majlis with Musa Adnan

An Introduction to the Maliki Madhab w/ Sh. Jihad Abu Sophia

The Maliki Madhab is one of the four prolific schools of fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence). This episode is part of our mini-series on al-Majlis covering brief, yet detailed introductions to the four major schools of Islamic jurisprudence. I sat down with a good friend of mine, Sh. Jihad Abu Sophia, to discuss the history, evolution, Usul (foundations) & other important elements of this significant school of thought. I particularly enjoyed the research process for this podcast as it provided me with a new-found appreciation for Imam Malik and his school. I hope this benefits you as much as it benefited me! - Musa.

Navigating Relationships As A Muslim w/ Sh. Ibraheem Menk

Islam encourages us to be good to our families. Our relationship with our parents, wives & other family members are important relationships, and because of this, it is important for us to develop ourselves so that we may please Allah in our dealings with our family members.  This podcast aims to assist you in just that, developing a fruitful relationship with those that you love. - Musa.

An Introduction to the Hanbali Madhab w/ Imam Rashid Khan

In this episode, I was joined by Imam Rashid Khan to discuss the Hanbali Madhab. We began with the concept of following a Madhab in a more general sense before moving on to unpacking the Hanbali Madhab.    This podcast will be very beneficial for anyone who is interested in the Madhab, including those that are currently adherents to it or those that intend to study it. We discussed it's founder, Imam Ahmad, the Madhab's history, it's Usul and much more.   This is the first episode of the Madhab series on al-Majlis. In this series, we will be exploring each of the four Madhahib with qualified representatives of them respectively. - Musa

Travelling Through Europe & the Balkans For Dawah! w/ John Fontain

In this episode of al-Majlis I was spontaneously joined by my good friend John Fontain. After having reverted to Islam many years ago, John has since become a passionate caller to Islam. In this episode we discussed a recent trip that John completed where he travelled throughout Europe & the Balkans for the purpose of Dawah. This conversation reminded me of my own Dawah trips abroad... Amazing times! - Musa

My Experience Travelling to Syria & The Far-Right in the UK w/ Paul Williams (Blogging Theology)

In this episode I had the pleasure of catching up with Paul Williams (Blogging Theology). We discussed his recent trip to Syria, his experiences seeing the new leadership in action & other light observations. We also took some time to discuss Ibn Taymiyyah (I know, I had to do it :)) and Paul's opinions on the great scholar. Lastly, we ended off the podcast by discussing the potential future of the UK for Muslims with the rise in far-right propaganda. - Musa.
