To hear more, visit groundeddaily.substack.comWhy Belief Must Come Before Practice: Introduction to Imam Al-Ghazali's 40 PrinciplesUnderstanding the foundations of Islamic knowledge requires more than memorizing rulings or performing rituals. It demands a systematic approach to learning that begins with certainty in belief before moving to practice. This article explores the framework laid out in Imam Al-Ghazali's The 40 Principles of Our Religion, examining why aqidah (creed) forms the essential foundation upon which all other religious knowledge is built.The Three Dimensions of Islamic PracticeThe Islamic tradition recognises three fundamental dimensions of religious life: Islam, Iman, and Ihsan. This framework, derived from Hadith Jibreel (known as Umm al-Sunnah), provides the organisational structure for understanding our religion.Islam: The Science of PracticeIslam encompasses the ritualistic and practical aspects of religion, which later developed into the science of fiqh (jurisprudence). While four major schools of Islamic law are widely recognised today, the historical reality reveals far greater diversity. Scholars document more than 80 madhabs during the early period of Islamic intellectual development.The survival of a legal school depends not on the Imam's knowledge alone, but on the continuity of transmission. Consider the madhab of Imam Al-Layth ibn Sa'd: despite Imam Al-Shafi'i's assertion that he was “afqahu min Malik” (more knowledgeable in fiqh than Imam Malik), his school did not survive because his students failed to continue the work.The Importance of Unbroken TransmissionContemporary practitioners receive their understanding of Islamic law through an unbroken chain of transmission (isnad) extending back to the founding Imams. For Shafi'i scholars, this means a documented chain of teachers and students from the present day all the way to Imam Al-Shafi'i himself.This chain preserves not just the rulings, but the contextual understanding and technical terminology. Without this living transmission, legal texts become increasingly difficult to interpret accurately. Imam Al-Shafi'i's magnum opus, Al-Umm, illustrates this challenge. Despite its importance, this foundational text is rarely taught in traditional Islamic circles today because the specific terminological framework has not been preserved in the same way as later works.Legal terminology evolves across generations. Early scholars often used cautious language when discussing prohibitions, preferring phrases like “I dislike this” rather than definitively declaring something haram. This reflected both their taqwa (God-consciousness) and their reluctance to claim authority over matters of divine law. In communities with high levels of religious commitment, such subtle expressions were sufficient to guide behavior.As communities changed, scholars adapted their pedagogical approach. The terminology became more explicit and categorical, even as the underlying rulings often became more accommodating. Imam Al-Nawawi's strict position on Fatiha recitation—invalidating prayer for mispronouncing even a single letter—was later moderated by scholars like Imam Al-Haythami, who recognised that people from certain linguistic backgrounds might be physically unable to produce specific Arabic phonemes.This adaptation reflects not inconsistency, but the dynamic nature of fiqh as a living discipline that must address the reality of Muslim communities. A contemporary example: visiting a remote fishing village in Malaysia, one encounters Imams who are part-time dive masters or boat captains, leading congregations where the recitation quality varies significantly. The fiqh tradition accommodates this reality while maintaining standards appropriate to each context.Iman: The Science of BeliefIman addresses matters of belief, formalized into the science of Aqidah. Within this domain, several schools of thought emerged:Athari (textual): This approach relies primarily on scriptural authority. The Quran commands belief, therefore one believes. This circular reasoning functions effectively in majority-Muslim contexts where baseline assumptions about God's existence and the Quran's authority are shared cultural knowledge.Ash'ari and Maturidi: These schools, founded by Imam Abu Hassan Al-Ash'ari and Imam Mansur Al-Maturidi respectively, integrate revelation with rational argumentation. This synthesis became necessary as Muslims encountered diverse philosophical traditions and needed to defend their beliefs through reasoned discourse.Ihsan: The Science of Spiritual ExcellenceIhsan developed into the science of tasawuf (Islamic spirituality), which also encompasses multiple approaches:The Salaf approach emphasizes wara' (scrupulousness) and zuhud (asceticism). Note that “Salaf” refers to a historical period—the first three centuries of Islamic history—rather than the modern movement called “Salafism,” which emerged several centuries later.Imam Al-Ghazali championed tazkiyah (purification of the soul), focusing on removing spiritual diseases from the heart and cultivating praiseworthy character traits.The Falsafah (philosophical) school, represented most prominently by Ibn Arabi, engaged with metaphysical questions and influenced Islamic mystical thought, particularly in Ottoman territories.This study focuses primarily on the tazkiyah tradition, as it addresses the practical work of spiritual development most directly applicable to contemporary Muslims.

Repentance/Tauba In The Modern Age | Unseen Signals | Shaykh Saqib IqbalThe Concept of Unseen Signals (0:00 - 3:20)Early Reminders: In childhood, sins often met with immediate consequences—like failing an exam, getting caught, or falling ill (0:09 - 0:25). These served as signals to repent.The Danger of Silence: Over time, these signals may stop. A person might continue sinning in private while maintaining a high social or religious status (like an Imam or businessman), leading to a false sense of security (0:29 - 1:30).Divine Neglect: The absence of punishment isn't necessarily a sign of pleasure; it can be a sign that one has been removed from the list of beloveds (3:02 - 4:10). This is described as a major trial where worldly doors are opened while spiritual ones close.The "PRAN" Method of Repentance (19:37 - 24:00)To make repentance effective and sustainable, the Shaykh introduces a simple four-step acronym: PRAN.1. P - Past: Acknowledge and confess past sins with the belief that Allah will forgive (19:55 - 20:45).2. R - Remorse: Feel true shame and embarrassment for the actions committed (20:46 - 21:12).3. A - Allah's Sake: Repent solely to please Allah or out of fear of the hereafter, not for worldly reputation (21:15 - 22:36).4. N - Never Again: Make a firm, sincere intention to never return to that sin in the future (22:54 - 23:12).

Halo masbro @⁨Parama Maharddhika⁩, ini image dan deskripsi eps. terbaru yaa. Plis tolong diupload. Tahun yang baru, banyak film baru juga yang bisa menghibur kita. Apa sih film-film yang teman kongkow paling tunggu di 2026 ini? Kalo seleranya Cisca dan Imam yang ada beberapa nih pilihannya. Apa aja tuh?

This episode uncovers a hidden pattern that connects the crucifixion of Jesus, the tragedy of Karbala, and the knowledge of the prophets themselves. Drawing directly from the Bible, early Christian sources, Islamic narrations, and esoteric traditions, it explores why Adam, Moses, and Jesus were aware of Karbala long before it occurred, and why events surrounding Jesus and Imam al-Hussain may not be as they appear on the surface. This is not speculation or symbolism, but a deep theological investigation into substitution, divine protection, and the way truth can be concealed in plain sight. Viewers are invited to question inherited narratives and examine what scripture actually says when read carefully.

Beginning a New Text with Imam al-GhazaliAlhamdulillah, this session marks the beginning of a new text in our weekly Ratib & Reminders gathering. For those based in Perth, you're warmly invited to join us live at Qaswa House every Thursday from 7:00–9:00 p.m. The gathering is open to everyone — men and women, young and old.After returning to Perth, it was a joy to be back at Ratib and to see the continuity of the program while I was away. We recently completed Arba‘ina Shamil fi Insanil Kamil, the 40 hadith on the perfection of Rasulullah ﷺ, and many were able to join the khatam we did live from Madinah. With that chapter completed, we now move into a new phase of study.The most common request I receive is to study the works of Imam al-Ghazali. While his magnum opus Ihya' ‘Ulum al-Din is one of the greatest works in Islamic scholarship, it is also vast — effectively forty books in one. For this reason, rather than beginning something we may struggle to complete, we've chosen a shorter, more focused text that reflects Ghazali's core project.Over the next two sessions we'll introduce this new book and begin exploring its themes. After that, we'll pause for Ramadan, as Ratib will be replaced by nightly taraweeh at Moresby Street Hall, Kensington, where we'll be reading and briefly reflecting on Surah al-A‘raf. After Ramadan, inshaAllah, we'll return to the text and continue the journey.Imam al-Ghazali had a unique way of teaching. He often wrote large, comprehensive works, then summarised them into medium-length texts, and finally into concise versions meant to be memorised. His belief was that knowledge only truly becomes yours when it is internalised — when you live with it, not merely read it. This approach shapes the book we'll be studying together.The text we've chosen is Al-Arba‘in fi Usul al-Din (The 40 Principles of the Religion). Interestingly, it did not begin as a standalone book. It was originally written as an appendix to Jawahir al-Qur'an (The Jewels of the Qur'an). After guiding readers on how to approach and understand the Qur'an, Imam al-Ghazali addressed the next essential question: How do we live the Qur'an? These forty principles were his answer. Recognising their importance, he permitted the work to be published independently.For many, especially those who went through traditional Islamic schooling in places like Malaysia, the content of this book will feel familiar. Much of classical Islamic education has been shaped, directly or indirectly, by Imam al-Ghazali's framework.To understand his project, we stepped back and looked at the foundation of Islamic scholarship itself — Hadith Jibril, often called Umm al-Sunnah. This hadith presents the religion through three inseparable dimensions: Islam, Iman, and Ihsan.Islam refers to the outward actions of the religion — prayer, fasting, zakat, and hajj — which later became formalised as the science of fiqh. Iman addresses belief, engaging the intellect before settling in the heart, and developed into the science of ‘aqidah. Ihsan focuses on spiritual refinement: worshipping Allah as though you see Him, and knowing that He sees you even when you do not.Over time, each of these dimensions developed its own sciences and terminology. These terms did not exist in the Prophet's time, but they were created to preserve clarity and make learning accessible. Tasawwuf, when understood correctly, belongs firmly within this tradition — addressing the heart and soul, not as a replacement for fiqh or ‘aqidah, but as their completion.Imam al-Ghazali lived during a period of deep fragmentation in the Muslim world — politically, intellectually, and spiritually. His life's work was to bring these dimensions back together, showing that a sound religious life cannot survive on law alone, belief alone, or spirituality alone. Each needs the others.It was during a profound personal crisis, after reaching the peak of his academic career, that Ghazali withdrew from public life for years of spiritual seclusion. From this period emerged Ihya' ‘Ulum al-Din, the first work to systematically unite belief, practice, and spiritual purification into a single guide for living Islam.Al-Arba‘in fi Usul al-Din is the distilled essence of that project. It is organised into forty principles: foundations of belief, guidance on practice, dangers on the path, and the means of salvation. This is the text we'll be walking through together, slowly and practically, inshaAllah.This session served as an introduction to both Imam al-Ghazali and the book we'll be studying. We'll continue next week, before pausing for Ramadan, and then resume the journey together. This is a public episode.

Born into a family of imams and radicalised in the Muslim Brotherhood, Sharif never imagined he would meet Jesus in a solitary prison cell. In Part 1 of this two‑part conversation, he shares how jihad, political activism, and imprionment led him to a series of mysterious encounters and a long, painful journey through the Qur'an that ended at the feet of Christ.

Renungan SeRoJa, PW. S. Yohanes Bosco, Imam. 31 Januari 2026

Dibawakan oleh pasangan suami istri Yustina dan Ignasius dari Paroki Kristus Raja Baciro Yogyakarta di Keuskupan Agung Semarang, Indonesia. 2 Samuel 12: 1-7a.10-17; Mazmur tg 51: 12-13.14-15.16-17; Markus 4: 35-41.KEKUATAN UNTUK TUMBUH Tema renungan kita pada hari ini ialah: Kekuatan UntukTumbuh. Santo Yohanes Bosco yang lahir pada tanggal 16 Agustus 1815, mengalamihidup dalam zaman bertumbuhnya industri di Eropa, sebagai hasil langsung darirevolusi industri pada abat ke-19. Ia menemukan bagian lapisan masyarakat yangsangat terkena dampak ialah remaja dan orang-orang muda.  Mereka tidak bisa diandalkan untuk dunia industri. Orangtua mereka dan orang dewasa lain, bagi yang mampu akan mengikuti industritetapi yang tidak mampu akan jatuh dalam kemiskinan. Orang muda terpaksamemenuhi jalan-jalan kota untuk menyambung hidup dengan berbagai aktivitas yangtidak berguna. Sering mereka menjadi sasaran eksploitasi kekerasan dankejahatan lainnya. Pastor Yohanes Bosco jatuh kasihan dan rasa cinta kepadamereka. Ia mengumpulkan mereka untuk hidup di asrama dan menyediakan berbagaikegiatan pendidikan, pembinaan iman dan moral, serta ketrampilan kepada mereka.Tujuannya supaya mereka di kemudian hari menjadi berguna bagi dirinya,keluarganya, Gereja dan masyarakat.  Bagi Santo Yohanes Bosco, setiap remaja dan orang mudaadalah benih-benih unggul bagi Tuhan. Tidak ada satu pun dari orang muda inidilahirkan jahat atau tidak baik. Karena sebagai benih, mereka harus diberikankesempatan dan segala kemungkinan untuk tumbuh dan berkembang. Sistempendidikan Don Bosco sangat memperhatikan ini. Sistem ini bernama SistemPencegahan. Seperti Don Bosco dan orang-orang muda zamannya, kita jugabagai benih sesawi dalam keadaan kita masing-masing. Biji sesawi karunia Tuhankepada setiap orang itu unik, dan tak pernah sama untuk dua orang. Itu adalahkepribadian, pengalaman iman, dan panggilan suci setiap orang. Dengan keunikanini, kita sebenarnya tidak boleh iri satu sama lain lantaran ada yang punyakekhususan di satu sisi, di sini lain dipunyai orang lain. Yang penting adalahkita saling menghormati dan memerlukan.  Sikap lain yang juga tidak layak ialah copy paste keunikan orang lain lalukeaslian diri sendiri hampir tidak tampak. Ini adalah kepalsuan yang serius.Orang tidak menjadi orisinal, independen dan percaya pada kemampuan sendiri.Sikap copy paste hampir sama denganmencuri. Sedangkan manja dan selalu bergantung adalah sikap menempel saja. Inimerupakan kemunduran seorang murid Tuhan Yesus yang baik. Dengan menghindarisikap-sikap yang kurang atau negatif itu, seseorang lalu menemukan dirinya yangmempunyai kekuatan untuk tumbuh. Ia pantas sebagai murid yang diutus oleh YesusKristus. Marilah kita berdoa. Dalam nama Bapa... Ya Bapa yangbijaksana, kuatkanlah iman kami supaya tetap menjadi murid-murid Yesus Kristusyang sejati. Kemuliaan kepada Bapa dan Putra dan Roh Kudus ... Dalam nama Bapa...

Palestine Action Prisoners' Hunger Strike - Imam Adil Tagari by Radio Islam

Dibawakan oleh Lusia dan Yohanes dari Paroki Kristus Raja Baciro Yogyakarta di Keuskupan Agung Semarang, Indonesia. 2 Samuel 7: 4-17; Mazmur tg 89: 4-5.27-28.29-30; Markus 4: 1-20.TEMPAT TINGGALTUHAN Tema renungan kita pada hari ini ialah: Tempat TinggalTuhan. Di dalam sebuah sesi pelajaran agama di kelas 5 sd, seorang muridbertanya kepada gurunya: "Di manakah tempat tinggal Tuhan?" Anak itumendapatkan dua jawaban, yang bagi dia merupakan jawaban yang memuaskan.Jawaban pertama ialah bahwa Tuhan tinggal di surga dan juga di hati setiaporang.  Di setiap tempat kita berada dan pada suatu waktutertentu, Tuhan berada di surga yang di atas sehingga Ia melihat setiap gerakdan keadaan kita. Tuhan berdiam di dalam hati kita, sehingga ia berbisik danmenyadarkan kita melalui suara hati dan buah-buah pikiran yang sehat danpositif, dan kita menerimanya sebagai kebenaran. Menurut Santo Tomas Aquino,teolog terkemuka Gereja, Tuhan Allah berdiam di dalam hati manusia melaluirahmat dan kehadiran-Nya itu kita alami dalam iman dan kasih. Rahmat merupakanberkat dari-Nya yang menghasilan iman dan kasih pada kita. Ada kemungkinan orang-orang yang tidak mengenal danpercaya kepada Tuhan merasa bahwa tidak ada Tuhan di dalam hati mereka. Namunsebenarnya Tuhan sungguh ada di dalam mereka, tetapi mereka memilih untukmenolaknya.  Jadi Kehadiran Tuhan dimana-mana dan di dalam hati manusia ini mau ditegaskan Allah kepada Daud supayatidak membangun sebuah tenda atau rumah kotak sebagai tempat tinggal TuhanAllah. Tuhan telah menyertai Daud sampai ke mana-mana dalam setiap perangnya,akan lucu kalau Tuhan dikurungkan saja di dalam sebuah rumah. Tuhan dapat kita jumpai dan alami karena Ia datang ke hatikita dan di dalam rumah keluarga atau komunitas kita masing-masing. Ia datangsebagai firman-Nya yang menyebar dan tertanam di sana, bertumbuh, dan berbuahuntuk dinikmati. Kita sebagai pribadi, keluarga, kelompok, dan Gereja selainsebagai tempat tinggal Tuhan sejak pembaptisan, juga menjadi tanah subur untukbertumbuh dan berbuahnya firman Tuhan. Adalah sebuah mujizat yang tak pernahdibuat oleh siapa pun, selain Yesus Kristus. Ia memilih untuk masuk ke dalamdiri setiap pengikut-Nya untuk membuatnya tumbuh, hidup sesuai dengankehendak-Nya, dan berbuah seperti yang dikehendaki-Nya. Hendaknya kita menyadari sampai detik ini, bahwa diri kitadimasuki oleh firman Allah yang memanggil, lalu kita ikuti dan Firman itubertumbuh sedemikian sampai membuat seseorang memantapkan pilihan hidupnya. Iamenjalani pilihan hidupnya itu dan berbuah, yaitu menjadi seorang denganpanggilan khusus atau hidup sebagai orang awam pada umumnya. Kitamasing-masing, di dalam doa dan renungan pribadi, perlu merenungkan selalubetapa pilihan Tuhan untuk tumbuh di dalam diri kita itu tidak salah. Sampaidetik ini, Dia tetap membutuhkan kita supaya firman-Nya itu tumbuh. Kita perluselalu menyadarinya dan menyanggupinya di dalam suka cita.Marilah kita berdoa. Dalam nama Bapa... Ya Tuhan maha kuasa,bersabdalah selalu dan hamba-hamba-Mu ini setia mendengarkan. Semoga sabda-Mutumbuh dan berbuah demi kebaikan kami. Bapa kami yang ada di surga ... Dalamnama Bapa ...

For more than 26 years, Tamer Nafar has bent language into a weapon, a mirror, and the airplane's black box.In his words: "The world is a crashing plane. I'm not Captain Sully; I cannot save the day. I'm that black box. I'm nothing but that black box. I document, eject seat, then cash out."From the birth of Palestinian hip-hop to today, his voice has never separated art from truth or culture from resistance.In this episode, we sit with Tamer at a pivotal moment. As he prepares to release his first English-language album, In the Name of the Father, the Imam and John Lennon (out January 20), and embarks on a European tour starting January 26, he reflects on creation under pressure, the cost of speaking clearly, and why storytelling matters when everything feels at stake.Beyond music, Tamer the activist uses his platform to raise funds for organizations like Clean Shelter and Resolute RGL. He continues to write, challenge, and provoke through his political op-eds, and he is expanding his literary world with upcoming novels 3Gs and 2 ATM's.Hip‑hop taught him to be a fireman in a burning world, not because he can stop the flames, but because turning away would be to burn too.Links to everything else Tamer:Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, DAM Facebook, DAM Instagram, DAM YouTube, Junction 48Artists mentioned in episode:Suhel Nafar⁠, ⁠Djamil⁠, Maysa Daw,⁠ Rasha Nahas, MC Abdul, Noel Kharman, Nasir Al Bashir, Mahmoud JrereSongs referenced:Rock it like a Palestinian, Change the World For me, The Beat Never Goes Off, JASADIK-HOM, Min Irhabi, Johnnie Mashi, SuperLancer, #Who_You_R, Go There, Al Fashi MashiDisclaimer: This episode was recorded on December 22, 2025.

Wer in einem kleinen bosnischen Dorf und dann im Toggenburg aufwächst, lernt wohl früh, sich in verschiedenen Welten zu bewegen. Muris Begovic ist eine Stimme des Dialogs, des Friedens und der erste Seelsorger der Schweizer Armee mit muslimischem Hintergrund. Als Muris Begovic zehn Jahre alt war, versteckte er sich im Stall seines Grossvaters unter dem Heuhaufen. Seine Eltern hatten entschieden, dass der Moment gekommen war, ihre Heimat zu verlassen: In Slowenien und in Kroatien herrschte bereits Krieg und sie ahnten, dass es eine Frage der Zeit war, bis die Welle der Gewalt auch Bosnien erfassen würde. Aber der kleine Junge wollte nicht weg, wollte nicht in die Schweiz. Denn er wusste: Ich will Imam werden – und dort kann ich das nicht. Woher kam dieser frühe, tiefe Wunsch? Und wie brachte Muris Begovic den Mut und die Entschlossenheit auf, ihm als Jugendlicher tatsächlich nachzugehen, nach Bosnien zurückzukehren und dort seine Ausbildung zu absolvieren, in einem Internat, in dem die zersplitterten Fensterscheiben noch immer vom Krieg zeugten? Heute lebt Begovic wieder in der Schweiz, ist glücklich verheiratet, Vater von zwei Söhnen, Präsident der Vereinigung der Islamischen Organisationen in Zürich (VIOZ) und Geschäftsleiter der muslimischen Seelsorge Zürich. Und er hat sich den Ruf erarbeitet, jemand zu sein, der sich für Offenheit, Toleranz und den konstruktiven Austausch zwischen den Religionen und Kulturen einsetzt. So wurde er 2018 mit dem «Dialogpreis der Schweizer Juden» ausgezeichnet, gemeinsam mit seinem Freund, dem Zürcher Rabbiner Noam Hertig. Im Gespräch mit Melanie Pfändler erzählt Begovic von den Erfahrungen, die ihn geprägt haben, von den Werten und Überzeugungen, die ihn leiten und wie es dazu kam, dass er der erste Schweizer Armeeseelsorger mit muslimischem Hintergrund wurde.

The Supreme Court on January 5, 2025, declined to grant bail to activists Umar Khalid and Sharjeel Imam in the 2020 Delhi riots conspiracy case, notwithstanding their incarceration for nearly six years without the commencement of trial. The court held that the constitutional guarantee of personal liberty is not “absolute”, and remains subject to the stringent bail regime prescribed under special statutes such as the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA). A Bench comprising Justices Aravind Kumar and N.V. Anjaria, however, granted conditional bail to five other co-accused, observing that the allegations against them indicated conduct of a subsidiary or facilitative nature, thereby warranting differential treatment. What are the implications of the ruling? Does the ruling depart from settled bail jurisprudence? Does treating allegations of road blockades as “terrorist acts” risk emboldening governments to weaponise the law to criminalise dissent?

This week, an interview we just conducted with Madeleine Wattenbarger and Axel Hernández of the Cooperativa de Periodismo in Mexico and Ambar Ruiz of Radio Zapote about the case of autonomous resistance and repression in the Mazateca community of Eloxochitlán de Flores Magón in Oaxaca, Mexico, so named for being the birthplace of the Cipriano Ricardo Flores Magón, revolutionary Mexican anarchist who was murdered by medical neglect by the US prison system in 1922 (check out our 2022 episode on the history). We talk about the rise to economic and political power of the family of Manuel Zepeda and his daughter Elena, their weaponization of the judiciary against community defenders resisting a hijacking in 2014 of the traditional community assembly and the years of organizing by Mazateca women whose loved ones face long prison sentences. We also speak about the case of Miguel Peralta, a Mazateca anarchist challenging his 5 decade sentence related to this case, as well as the recent murder by medical neglect while in prison of militant anarcho-punk Yorch Esquivel at the hands of the Mexican state at the behest of UNAM.

He's still lacking access to an ADA-accessible bathroom and shower unit and has not had his property or commissary card returned. According to his supporters, Xinachtli is still experiencing weakness in his legs and has now been forced back into a completely inaccessible space, where he faces a serious risk of another life-threatening fall or injury. Xinachtli's supporters demand remains: Xinachtli must be moved out of McConnell into an ADA-accessible facility that can address his medical needs. McConnell has already proven it can't and won't provide adequate resources to care for Xinachtli in his current state. They are putting his life in danger.

Revolutionary Jamil Al-Amin, formerly known as H. Rap Brown, returned to the ancestors on November 23, 2025 after 25 years in federal prison. The Imam was convicted in 2002 for the murder of a sheriff's deputy and Al-Amin continued to be incarcerated despite the video-taped confession of another man with the means and the motivation for the killing. You can find a brief writeup and further readings, right before notes about the state murder by medical neglect of Yorch in the December 10th issue of In Contempt Stop Cop City RICO Dismissed Judge Farmer finally decided to dismiss the RICO charges against the 61 defendants in the Stop Cop City case on the grounds that they were filed improperly. This doesn't remove the domestic terrorism or arson charges against some remaining defendants, and the state says it will refile the RICO charges but for now that's a little off our comrades' plates.

The two friends from Massachusetts were accused of liberating hundreds of minks from a fur farm in PA that kills thousands of minks every season. As Phily Anarchist Black Cross says: There is a pretrial conference in February. After that will come trial. While this is big and exciting news, the case isn't over yet.

We have been told by multiple lawyers this date is very unlikely to change. The North Texas federal court circuit in Fort Worth is well know for being fast and firm with trial dates. Also, Dario Sanchez's state trial is set for 1/12 in Johnson County. This is not a lot of time! We're calling on supporters everywhere to do everything you can to help the defendants get the best defense possible. That means continued fundraising for expert witnesses and other trial expenses, writing letters to keep their spirits up, and raising awareness to highlight the importance of this case.

Sélection Q-R Imam Sarr 43 by XamSaDine

Imam Mohammad Tawhidi breaks down the “72 virgins” narrative, explaining its historical, cultural, and symbolic context. He argues extremist interpretations exploit early societal realities, while Islam's core message remains ethics, piety, and moral responsibility, not fantasy rewards.

Sélection Q-R Imam Sarr 42 le by XamSaDine

What does it mean to follow God today—not in history, but in the present moment? In the first episode of The Mahdi's Manifesto Podcast, Abdullah Hashem (Aba Al-Sadiq) explains the purpose, origins, and mission of a growing faith community built around the belief in a living, divinely appointed guide in every age. This episode addresses the questions many are afraid to ask: Why do believers gather around a living Imam? Is community life an obligation or a choice? How did prophetic societies function in the past—and can they exist again? What separates a divine community from cults, extremism, or political movements? Drawing on the lives of the Prophets and Messengers—from Adam, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad, to the Apostles and the righteous of every nation—this conversation explores the timeless pattern of believers withdrawing from corruption to establish justice, brotherhood, and shared responsibility. The episode also speaks directly to modern concerns, clarifying the community's firm commitment to peace, legality, compassion, and non-violence, while responding to media myths and public misunderstanding. At its core, this is not a call to fear—but a call to conscience. A call to reconsider what faith looks like when it is lived fully, openly, and together.

Send Kris and Rob a Text Message!In this UK true crime episode, we tell the devastating story of Sameena Imam, a 34-year-old Costco marketing manager whose “secret” relationship with Roger Cooper ended in calculated violence. Investigators and prosecutors said Cooper wanted the affair kept hidden—and when the truth threatened to surface, he and his brother David Cooper carried out a plan that led to Sameena's death.We follow the timeline from Christmas Eve 2014, when Sameena was last seen after leaving work, through the widening missing-person inquiry that became a murder investigation. You'll hear how detectives pieced together movements, evidence, and communications—and how police ultimately located Sameena's body buried at an allotment off Groby Road in Leicester. We also cover the forensic case presented at trial, including chloroform and reports of toxic elements detected during post-mortem testing, before the final chapter: the Cooper brothers' murder convictions and life sentences.sources used for this podcastSupport the showJOIN THE HITCHED 2 HOMICIDE IN-LAWS AND OUTLAWSSTART KRIS CALVERT'S BOOKS TODAY FOR FREEH2H WEBSITEH2H on TWITTERH2H on INSTA

In this unforgettable episode of Shoulder to Shoulder, Pastor Doug and Rabbi Pesach sit down with Dr. Michael Brawan of Kenya and Rev. Adam Hajj Muhammad of Somalia, a former imam whose decision to follow Jesus cost him almost everything. Adam describes his childhood in a radically devout Muslim family, his rise as a respected Islamic judge and mosque builder, and the moment a divine encounter shattered everything he thought he knew. From that point on, his life became a dangerous walk of faith.  Adam shares how his public declaration of Christian faith triggered a violent backlash: his mother and wives were murdered, early converts were slaughtered, and there was a price on his head. Dr. Brawan recounts the extraordinary rescue operation that smuggled Adam out of Somalia in a coffin, and Adam explains why he later chose to return and plant underground churches despite the constant threat of torture and death. Recorded in Jerusalem while leading an African Christian delegation through Israel, this conversation shines a piercing light on the brutal persecution of Christians in Africa — and on the kind of courageous faith that refuses to back down.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. New York correspondent Luke Tress joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Last Wednesday, roughly 200 rowdy protesters disrupted an Israel-immigration event outside the Park East Synagogue. Tress was there and paints a picture of the events and the evolving responses from Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani. Days after US pro-Palestinian protesters shouted chants including “Globalize the Intifada” and “Death to the IDF” outside the Upper East Side synagogue, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch, who is Jewish, apologized to the congregation during Shabbat services. Is this allaying the community's fears? We then dive into the question several lawfare groups are now asking: Can a US law protecting abortion clinics push back against protests at synagogues? This week, anti-Zionist activist groups in New York City backed a Muslim leader who led a walkout from a college interfaith event last week after decrying a fellow panelist as “Zionist.” We learn how the mass exodus was basically shrugged off by those in attendance -- but why it is important to illuminate this and other similar events. Jewish groups at the University of Pennsylvania have expressed concern after federal authorities pressed the university in recent days to provide personal information about Jewish staffers in an investigation meant to combat antisemitism on campus. Tress untangles this saga. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Every Muslim tries to make sense of life's mistakes, its setbacks, and the moments that test patience and character. The Prophet ﷺ didn't leave us to figure these things out alone. His short, comprehensive words teach us how to walk through life with clarity, balance, and wisdom. In this fourth part of Jawami' al-Akhbar by Imam al-Sa'di, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan explains ahadith that speak directly to your daily reality: reminders that shape the way you think, react, and grow as a believer. This episode explores: - How a believer learns from painful experiences instead of repeating the same mistakes. - How planning, discipline, and self-control protect your time, your focus, and your worship. - How to recognise arrogance before it settles into the heart. - How contentment turns even limited provision into sufficiency. - How certain doors of good open or stay closed, depending on the choices you make. - Why temptations feel strong, and how to meet them with strength. - How simple acts of goodness carry weight with Allah and reshape your character. - How to guard your salah, hold your tongue, and control your anger, especially when it's hardest. - How to treat people with fairness, even when emotions run high. These ahadith aren't theoretical. They're practical guidance for anyone trying to live with sincerity, protect their habits, and build a character that will stand firm on the Day they meet Allah.

Today’s topic is an abandoned mansion, but it was once a gorgeous and luxurious home designed for a prominent citizen of northern Italy.
