Poetic forms are sometimes considered limiting, but can we find freedom within the constraints? On this episode, Brandon Blue tells Jared about how recontextualizing traditional forms through the lens of identity creates an additional, sometimes subversive, layer of meaning. Plus, he discusses writing about intimacy and eroticism within and outside of sexual relationships; how he decided to pursue an MFA after teaching middle and high school for seven years; and the importance of advocating for your needs and goals in an MFA program, writing community, and career.Brandon Blue is a black, queer poet, educator and MFA candidate at Arizona State University from the D(M)V.

The Barzakh"Behind them is a barrier until the Day they are resurrected." (Surah Al-Mu'minun, 23:100)We continue our series The 5 Lives of Man with Session 5: The Barzakh — a deep dive into the stage that begins after burial and ends at resurrection.Led by Shaykh Muhammad Ahmed, this session explores what the soul experiences in the grave, the nature of that unseen realm, and how our choices in this life shape what comes next.

The deceased is followed by three, his family, his wealth, and his deeds. Two return, and one remains - his deeds. Sahih al-Bukhari, Hadith 6514Dr. Zohair takes us through a powerful double session on both the *Journey and Salvation in the Barzakh*.The transition from this world to the next is among the most profound moments in our existence. And while this mystery has perplexed humanity for centuries, the Quran and Sunnah describe it in vivid detail. Every soul will undertake this journey—some will be received with comfort and peace, while others may face hardship and regret.
There is a world you can't see... But it can see you, and you're only one step away from it.Some of us see the Barzakh as something distant, and a realm that we only interact with after death, but in reality *we are connected to it even now.* The unseen world is not entirely seperate from us, we interact with it without even realizing. *The Quran and Sunnah* reveal that the realm of the *Barzakh is interwined with our existence here*, but what does this teach us about the *unseen forces that shape our reality*, our *purpose in this life* and *our ultimate destination*? Join us for the first session of our Ramadan Faith Circle series, where Dr. Zohair will take us through the role of the Barzakh in our lives today, the unseen connections between this world and the next, and how our existence is already linked to what awaits us beyond the grave.

Before we start, apologies for being MIA for the last two weeks. Fabeha and Musa have some news for you! In this episode of 'Urdunama', Fabeha Syed dives into the mystical world 'Barzakh'. Often interpreted as the barrier or partition between the physical and spiritual realms, 'barzakh' carries deep significance in literature, philosophy, and spirituality. Taking a cue from the Fawad Khan and Sanam Saeed starred show, we explore its roots in Urdu poetry, and how it continues to resonate in contemporary discussions on love, heartbreak, and longing.

Au Sénégal, l'armée donnait le week-end dernier un premier bilan de l'opération « Djoko » lancée le 15 août, pour lutter contre l'émigration clandestine. Depuis dix jours, des forces de l'ordre patrouillent sur le littoral, pour empêcher les départs de migrants clandestins depuis les côtes sénégalaises. En tout, 453 personnes, dont plus de la moitié de nationalité sénégalaise, ont été interpellées. Et parmi elles, des membres de réseaux de passeurs. Le Premier ministre espagnol Pedro Sánchez commence aujourd'hui une tournée africaine, avec le Sénégal pour étape, pour évoquer l'immigration irrégulière. Y a-t-il eu un changement de politique depuis l'arrivée au pouvoir au Sénégal du duo Faye-Sonko ? Le sociologue Aly Tandian enseigne à l'université Gaston-Berger de Saint-Louis, et préside l'Observatoire sénégalais des migrations. RFI : L'armée sénégalaise a déclaré avoir interpellé 453 personnes candidates à la migration irrégulière, parmi lesquelles des passeurs, dans le cadre de l'opération Djoko. Quel est votre regard sur cette opération lancée par les nouvelles autorités ?Aly Tandian : Les recherches n'ont cessé de montrer les limites de la sécurisation en matière de réponse sur les questions de migration irrégulière. Alors, je ne sais pas pourquoi l'État du Sénégal a pris cette option. Ce que d'autres n'ont pu faire en termes de sécurisation des frontières, je ne vois pas comment l'État du Sénégal pourrait le faire. Pour rappel, il y a Frontex qui a eu à mener durant plusieurs années un contrôle strict et sévère des côtes européennes et extra-européennes.Frontex est l'agence qui contrôle et sécurise les frontières de l'Europe…Frontex n'a pas pu apporter des réponses parce que les causes de la migration irrégulière sont d'abord sociales. Je pense qu'il faudrait plutôt chercher les réponses au niveau du social, mais pas au niveau sécuritaire.C'est vrai que l'opération militaire Djoko correspond au modèle répressif que l'on peut voir dans plusieurs pays luttant contre l'immigration clandestine. Avez-vous constaté une nouvelle approche depuis l'arrivée du président sénégalais Bassirou Diomaye Faye et de son Premier ministre Ousmane Sonko ?Ce qu'on a pu remarquer, c'était le grand silence. À ce jour, sans me tromper, il y a eu deux, trois petites sorties. Une première sortie par le président de la République lorsqu'il a reçu le Président du Conseil européen Charles Michel qui était là. Et la deuxième sortie qui a été constatée, c'est le Premier ministre lorsqu'il s'est rendu à Saint-Louis suite à un nouveau drame migratoire. Ce silence inquiète parce qu'entre-temps, il faut le dire, il y a eu beaucoup de pertes de vies. Pour rappel, du 1ᵉʳ janvier au 31 juillet 2024, près de 27 640 migrants ont atteint les côtes des îles Canaries à bord de 822 embarcations. Ce sont des chiffres qui interpellent, d'autant plus qu'il y a une augmentation de plus de 12 % par rapport à la même période de l'année précédente. Le deuxième élément, c'est que nous avons toujours mobilisé des hypothèses en soutenant qu'il y a eu des départs parce qu'il y a l'absence d'avenir pour plusieurs candidats à la migration irrégulière, parce qu'il y a une vie difficile. Mais qu'est-ce qui a changé ? On a changé d'acteurs politiques, mais cette population juvénile n'a pas encore trouvé une réponse qui pourrait les rassurer et qui pourrait leur donner l'opportunité de rester davantage. Au contraire, les choses se sont intensifiées. Entre-temps, il y a une juvénilisation des candidats à la migration irrégulière, une présence de plus en plus importante de femmes et de jeunes filles sur les routes migratoires et désormais, un éclatement des destinations. Si auparavant on parlait de « Barça » ou « Barzakh » pour évoquer ceux qui partaient à Barcelone, aujourd'hui il y a de plus en plus de jeunes qui partent vers des destinations de plus en plus lointaines, ce qui laisse penser l'absence d'espoir, de réponse à offrir à cette population juvénile. Et parmi ces lointaines destinations, il y a le Nicaragua, par lequel passent de plus en plus de migrants pour ensuite traverser plusieurs pays d'Amérique latine avant d'atteindre les États-Unis. D'après les statistiques américaines, l'an dernier, plus de 60 000 Africains ont rejoint illégalement les États-Unis par ce moyen, dont 20% de Sénégalais. Et ce n'est pas donné car il faut compter entre 8 000 et 10 000 dollars pour le voyage et les passeurs. Donc, c'est aussi toute une économie dont on parle ?Aujourd'hui, il y a toute une échelle qui est établie depuis les banlieues, les marchés et même les universités pour faciliter le départ des jeunes. Ces jeunes partent davantage, cherchant çà et là de l'argent en mobilisant des bourses, vendant le peu qu'ils possèdent pour partir, avec assez souvent la contribution de la parentèle. Les jeunes parlent du besoin de « se sauver », parce qu'en face ils n'ont rien d'autre que du noir et l'absence de perspectives. Quand les gens pensent que partir est une forme de suicide, c'est parce qu'ils ignorent les conditions de vie dans lesquelles les populations vivent dans leur territoire d'origine. Ces jeunes qui partent, ils veulent être au cœur de la mondialisation, ils ne veulent pas continuer à en être de simples victimes. Ce sont des acteurs qui profitent des technologies de l'information et de la communication, qui sont au courant du développement du monde. La grande difficulté que nous avons aujourd'hui, c'est que nous avons un éclatement des réponses, alors qu'on a plutôt besoin d'une mobilisation d'acteurs divers, d'une mobilisation des États pour trouver une réponse régionale, et non pas une réponse pays par pays.

Until, when death comes to one of them (those who join partners with Allâh), he says: "My Lord! Send me back, "So that I may do good in that which I have left behind!" No! It is but a word that he speaks; and behind them is Barzakh (a barrier) until the Day when they will be resurrected. Then, when the Trumpet is blown, there will be no kinship among them that Day, nor will they ask of one another. Then, those whose scales (of good deeds) are heavy, they are the successful. [Quran 23: 99-102]
