    Title: Eid-ul-Adha: A Lesson in Sacrifice and Service Synopsis: In this episode of Pathway to Peace, we delve into “The Essence of Giving” as taught in Islam's greatest festival of sacrifice, Eid-ul-Adha. Drawing on Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad's sermon and the foundational Qur'anic verses of Surah al-Ḥajj, the presenters trace the spirit of Prophet Abraham's ultimate test—leaving behind everything for the sake of God's —and reveal how this timeless example speaks to modern Britain. From recounting Hagar's faith at Zamzam to the near-sacrifice of Ishmael, we uncover the true heart of taqwa (righteousness) and why “your righteousness reaches Him” long after the ritual ends. Through stories of UK volunteers, NHS heroes, and community service, we show how inner sacrifice fuels real-world resilience. Finally, we explore the balance of huqooq-ullāh (rights owed to God) and huqooq-ul-ibaad (rights owed to people), offering practical steps for listeners nationwide to turn small acts of giving into lasting social and spiritual impact.

Screen Fatigue in young people In a tech-driven world, young people are feeling the strain. Nearly half of UK teens say they'd rather live without the internet, as constant screen time and social media take a toll especially during exam season. Some are even calling for digital curfews. Could banning social media for under-16s help, or would it backfire. Join us as we explore the impact of screens on youth mental health. Marriage is a sacred union In a world of shifting values, traditional marriage faces growing pressure. Pope Leo XIV recently reaffirmed it as a union between a man and a woman, rooted in faith. In this show, we explore the Islamic view of marriage as a sacred covenant of love, mercy, and responsibility — and reflect on its divine role as a foundation for a moral society.

    Join Raza Ahmed and Danayal Zia for Friday's show from 4-6pm where we will be discussing: ‘Rise of the Far Right as a threat to democracy' and ‘Divine change - does God change us, or do we change for God?' Rise of the Far Right as a threat to democracy As the far-right movement gains momentum, a quieter threat to peace, equality, and justice emerges. These ideologies spread hate, counter diversity, and fuel fear through racism and nationalism, targeting immigrants, minorities, and vulnerable groups. Join us as we explore the growing danger of far-right ideologies and their impact on the moral foundation of democracy and human dignity. Divine change - does God change us, or do we change for God? Today, we open our hearts to a timeless question: Is it God who changes us, or do we change for God? In moments of stillness and in life's turning points, transformation reaches us—but who takes the first step? Join us as we reflect on the journey of divine change, and how our hearts align with the will of the Most Merciful. Guests: Dr. Aaron Winter - Senior lecturer in sociology at Lancaster University, specialising in the study of far-right extremism, racism, and political violence.

    Join Usman Alj & Zafir Ahmad for Thursday's show from 4-6pm where we will be discussing: ‘Gaza forgotten?' and 'Student Activism'. Gaza Forgotten? Gaza may have slipped from the headlines, but the crisis continues. In his latest BBC documentary, The Settlers, Louis Theroux sheds light on Israeli settler movements in the West Bank and their ambitions to reoccupy Gaza, revealing plans to expand settlements, even in the face of international law. Join us as we explore the narratives that persist beyond the headlines and the importance of keeping Gaza in our collective consciousness.   Student Activism Student activism, once a powerful force for change, now faces questions of focus and impact. Is it becoming escapism, losing sight of priorities like worship and belief in Allah? Drawing inspiration from the young Companions of the Prophet, we explore how activism can align with faith, justice, and the Islamic duty of enjoining good and forbidding evil. Guests: Alice Rothchild - a retired obstetrician-gynecologist who worked in the health care reform and women's movements for many years. Milena Ansari - the Israel and Palestine Assistant Researcher, monitoring and reporting on human rights conditions and abuses in Israel and Palestine. Producers Nadia Anwar and Afia Nasir
