Join our hosts for Thursday's show where we will be discussing: ‘Media Literacy' and 'Need for the Promised Messiah (as)' Media literacy What if the same message could mean completely different things to different people? Why do we so often misunderstand each other online and how much of that comes from how we interpret what we see? Join us as we explore media literacy and how personal biases, tone, and lack of context shape the way we understand information on the internet, often leading to conflict, misinformation, and unnecessary assumptions. Need for the Promised Messiah (as) Opponents of the Promised Messiah, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (as), argue that his claim came before its time when the world did not yet need a reformer. Join us as we explore whether the late 19th century was, in fact, an extraordinary age. A time when nearly every major religion awaited a divinely appointed saviour, when moral and spiritual decline was widespread, and when the signs foretold in the Holy Quran and the prophecies of the Holy Prophet (saw) were becoming manifest. Was this truly the moment history had been waiting for? Guests: Mark Frankel -  Head of Public Affairs, Full Fact Savini Yasanayake -  Psychology Undergraduate Producers: Mahira Ramzeen

Join our hosts for Monday's show where we will be discussing: 'Media Bias pushing anti Muslim Hate' and 'Female companions of the Holy Prophet (pbuh)' Media Bias pushing anti Muslim Hate With religious hate crimes against Muslims currently at record levels, we have to ask: Is the media simply reporting the news, or are they fueling the fire of hostility? Female companions of the Holy Prophet (pbuh) The history of Islam beautifully records the devotion, sacrifice, and service of the female companions of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). These noble women played an essential role in supporting the mission of Islam through faith, patience, charity, and dedication. Their lives demonstrate how sincerity and service can strengthen a community and contribute to the spread of divine guidance.   Guests: Nathan Sparkes-Chief Executive of Hacked Off Peter Oborne- a prominent and often contrarian British journalist, broadcaster, and author known for his sharp, critical analysis of British politics Nicholas Jones - A veteran British journalist, author, and political commentator Ata Ur Rehma Khalid Sahib - Murrabi Silsila of the ahmaddiya jamaat Mrs. Maryum Ahmad - a qualified immigration solicitor with over 15 years of experience across various areas of law Mrs Hamdah Sanori Farooqi Producers: Iesha Khalid and Rehana Bhatti

The Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings upon him, said: "Observe moderation in taking action, and if you fail to observe it perfectly, try to do as much as you can. And be happy, for none would be able to get into Paradise because of his actions alone." The companions of the Holy Prophet said, "Allah's Messenger, not even you?" He replied, "Not even I, but for Allah enveloping me in His love.  And bear this in mind: the deed most loved by Allah is one which is done constantly, even though it is small."  [Collection: Muslim.]

He was born in Babylon, of the priestly tribe of Levi, during the captivity of the Jews. After their return to Jerusalem, the Jews began to rebuild the Temple and to worship there according to the Law, but were discouraged by opposition from the local population (many of them Jews who had not gone into captivity). So God raised up the holy Prophets Haggai and Zechariah (February 8) to stir the people to complete their sacred work. Haggai's prophecies reveal that the drought that the Hebrews were suffering was brought about by their failure to complete the rebuilding of Jerusalem, and would only end when they rededicated themselves to their work. He is ranked tenth among the minor Prophets.
