Episode 31: Series on Islam and Trade in the Malay Archipelago. Part 1 - Who are the Austronesians?

Would love to hear your thoughts on the podcast, send us a message! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2366576/fan_mail/new] This episode begins a three-part series on Islam and trade in the Malay Archipelago. Before we can understand how Islam spread through Southeast Asia, we first need to understand the people who inhabited the region long before its arrival — the Austronesians. In the first episode, Anisa and I talk about how these remarkable seafaring peoples spread across the Indian and Pacific Oceans, from Taiwan and the Philippines through the Malay Archipelago and as far as Polynesia and Madagascar. Their languages, maritime traditions, and shared cultural heritage formed the foundation of the peoples that inhabit what we know today as the Nusantara or Alam Melayu. In this first episode, we explore who the Austronesians were — their origins, migrations, languages, and cultural traditions — and how they shaped the societies of Islands Southeast Asia and beyond. In the second episode, we examine the role of Islam and trade in the Malay Archipelago, and how merchant and spiritual networks helped spread Islam throughout the region. In the third episode, we look at colonisation, occupation, and resistance in the Malay world, and how local societies resisted European colonisation. Join us for this three-part journey through the history of the Malay Archipelago.

Beginners Arabic Lesson 29: Lifelong Arabic learning. A conversation with my mum Dr Rokkiah Tawi

Would love to hear your thoughts on the podcast, send us a message! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2366576/fan_mail/new] This has got to be one of my favourite episodes, because I got to chat with my beautiful mum Dr Rokkiah Tawi about her lifelong passion for learning Arabic. Like a true Asian mum, she forced me to learn Arabic, until I loved it. In this episode, we’ll hear about how as a little kid, she used to defy ‘shoot to kill’ curfew orders during the Malaysian communist insurgency to learn the Quran; to how she uses simplified Arabic grammar to memorise a third of the Quran at the young age of 76. I hope you enjoy it! #arabic #arabiclearning #Quran  Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2366576/support] For our free 6-Part series on basic Arabic to get you started, sign up to our E-mail list ⁠HERE [https://dashboard.mailerlite.com/forms/203521/90979955310068870/share]⁠!
