Exclusive, deep and insightful interview with Ashraf 'Arno' Schneider. "Before going through security to board my flight my mother held me close to her chest and whispered a prayer in my ear. It was a prayer to her new God, Allah, and one which I will never forget. She asked this Allah to “send a big angel” with me to protect me and to give me guidance. It was only once I arrived on the other side of the world, far from my friends and family, that I discovered that my mother had slipped a Quran into my bag. On the first page of the Quran she had left me a note encouraging me to read it, even if only so that I could debate against Muslim scholars if the opportunity ever presented itself..."

Spoken Word by 15 year old - Naeema F Adani... "I remember my first hijab. It was pink. Simple, I know but to 7 year old me, it was everything; a symbol of my maturity- that I was finally old enough to cover my hair like my other sisters did. I wore it day in, day out without fail-even if it didn’t match my outfit. I remember bragging about it and rubbing it in the faces of all my cousins that I was a ‘big girl’ now and that they were all ‘still children’. I remember waiting around the washing machine and hanging it and until this day, I still have it with me, somewhere under the pile of other hijabs that I’ve bought over the years. If 7 year old me had ever met the Naeema of today, she would be horrified. Not because of the absurd amount of pimples on my forehead, (though, I’m sure that too would play a role) but because of something else. It is unfortunate, and I’m ashamed to say it but do not wear my hijab. My hijab wears me. When I walk into a shop and a person looks over in my direction I want to disappear. When a person speaks differently to me, thinking that I do not speak English properly I silently beg the ground to swallow me whole. I hate it and for a while, I hated my hijab for it too. Though it was subconscious, over a long period of time, I begun to change aspects of myself to compensate for the ‘problems’ that my hijab caused me. Whenever I caught the eye of a stranger on me I smiled to show how normal I was. If I ever spoke to a stranger I would purposely change the way I spoke to sound cheerier and happy. If I was ever offered food I wasn’t sure of, I would fake a stomach illness or claim i had already eaten because I cringed at the thought of having to explain my religious restrictions. I did all these things and more yet it never occurred to me why. Who was I trying to impress? To explain myself to? " Enjoy! Love what we doing?

“Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.” – William Shakespeare While we can argue that Yusuf Mohamed falls into all three of these categories, the last phrase truly defines where he is today. Standing at the helm of Islamic Relief South Africa, Mr. Mohamed takes the notion of ‘greatness’ and zealously amplifies it. The life we meticulously plan for ourselves isn’t always the life Allah has ordained for us. Yusuf can firmly validate this thought because ten years ago, he would’ve never imagined himself as the local CEO of one of the world’s most well-recognised and highly-acclaimed humanitarian agencies. The Cape Town born-and-bred altruist defines himself as three things: A traveller,asnarrated in a Hadith of Prophet Muhammed (PBUH), explaining that we should reside like travellers in the temporary abode of the world, with all actions targeted towards gathering provisions for the journey to the Hereafter.An activist, as he constantly reflects on his purpose in this world and tries to make a positive difference in the lives of everyone he encounters; and,A father,who has the loving support of his three wonderful children and wife. Graciously accepting the CEO position at Islamic Relief South Africa in December 2016, Mr. Mohamed cherishes the opportunity to contribute in any way he can with the capabilities Allah has given him. Yusuf has the strong belief that “meaningful change starts with yourself.” He doesn’t sit in the passenger’s seat in life’s kinetic carriage, but rather opts for a more purposeful and proactive approach - Full article here This is our 2nd interview with Yusuf Mohamed - listen to the first one here.

One of the most interesting interviews. We were really blown away by Dr Razeen's passion for his work and the Quran. Dr Razeen Gopal, a cardiac electrophysiologist at the Cape Town Atrial Fibrillation (AF) Centre located at Mediclinic Panorama, implanted the world’s smallest smart device to control heart beats and pumping action – a first in the emerging markets region. Dr Gopal’s unit remains one of the leading centres for management of cardiac arrhythmias on the African continent and he feels that the addition of the new platform of devices is in keeping with the centre’s motto that “with innovation, comes cure”. The Cape Town AF Centre, as a centre of academic excellence has taken a leading role in the dissipation of knowledge in the discipline of cardiac electrophysiology (both in cardiac ablation and device therapy). Dr Gopal proctors quite broadly, having regularly travelled to the Middle East, Indian Ocean Islands, Namibia and nationally. He runs an extremely popular pacemaker implantation course (Medtronic EBAC/EHRA accredited), which has been attended by hundreds of training cardiologists and qualified specialists from within South Africa and the African continent. In addition, his avid passion for teaching the ECG has been popularised by the national ECG courses he hosts annually.

Faghmeda Miller was the first Muslim woman in South Africa to publicly disclose her status as a person infected with HIV. Since making that decision soon after her husband died from the disease, she has become an HIV/AIDS activist, focusing specifically on the Muslim community. When she discovered in the mid-1990s that she too was infected, her initial reaction she said was one of shame. “The first thing that went through my mind was the shame I had brought on my family. I, therefore decided to keep this information to myself, after all it wouldn’t be long till I die.” Faghmeda said she did not realize the possibility for people infected with HIV to lead full, productive lives, a message she now actively shares with others. Learning the facts about HIV and AIDS has been a transformative experience for Faghmeda who claims in her life, her attitude, and even her personality changed. In the process, she said she found the courage to battle the stigma attached to infection, even announcing her status on community radio. She also co-founded a non-profit organization called Positively Muslim. Listen and share this tear-jerking interview and please give us a rating on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher or Spotify apps...

Muhammad Tim Humble is from Newcastle & graduated from the famous faculty of hadeeth and Islamic Studies at the Islamic University of Madinah in 2011. Ustadh Tim Humble is a British revert, who has ijaza in the six famous books of hadeeth. He is also experienced in the field of Ruqyah, the Islamic method of healing with the Quran, specializing in treatment for black magic and evil eye. He accepted Islam at the age of 14 & is currently involved with a dawah organisation called IDC North East which is based in & around Newcastle. Tim Humble became interested in Islam during Religious Education classes in Primary School. After researching it further on the internet he accepted Islam at the age of 14. Thereafter he went through a period of 4-5 years where he struggled to implement and practice his new-found faith. The Muslim community in his hometown was unwelcoming and unhelpful to New Muslims. In his own words, “One of the biggest problems we have in the Ummah is that we are excellent at selling the religion; we’re great salesmen…What we’re really, really rubbish at is keeping them in Islam once they become Muslim.” A suggestion by a friend sparked the idea of studying in the Islamic University of Madinah. During his first Hajj pilgrimage he applied to and was accepted into the University. He graduated from the Faculty of Hadeeth Studies in 2011. Notably he memorized and is certified in the six canonical works of hadeeth. Enjoy this interview and please give us a rating on Apple Podcasts or Stitcher or Spotify apps... Love what we doing?
