Please consider supporting us here at The Muslim Vibe, just £10 per month would go such a long way: https://themuslimvibe.com/support -- This week our host Salim invites Dr Wafaa Eltantwy and Habeeb Akande to speak about sex and intimacy in Islam. They talk about the perception of sex in Muslim communities, looking at the existing taboo and the harm it perpetuates, and where it originated. Habeeb and Dr Wafaa both stress the importance of sex education, how it's lacking, and how important it is to address it. They highlight some of the things that we, as a community, are doing wrong, and how these contribute to a detrimental cycle that only hurts us in the long run. The conversation touches on Habeeb's book 'A Taste of Honey', the perceived separation between sensuality and spirituality, and the paramountcy of communication,  opening the door on this all-too-important topic and taking those first steps towards shedding the taboo. Dr Wafaa is a gynaecologist, counsellor and therapist. She is an expert in psychosexual & relationship therapy, whilst also being a GMC licensed medical doctor with extensive clinical experience in sexual medicine. Habeeb Akande is an alumnus of Al Azhar University in Cairo. He is a British-born writer, sex educator and historian of Nigerian descent.

Drawing from this, they look at the "Black Muslim" narrative and how, despite it's rising popularity, it remains underrepresented, and the impact that this has. They look at this identity, sharing what it means for each of them, sharing their personal experiences and how they each "came in" to this identity, and what its come to mean for them.

Sahar is running to be a Plaid Cymru Senedd Member - a member of the Welsh parliament - and in this discussion, we gain some more insight into her reasons and motivations, as well as some of her thoughts and beliefs. She speaks on institutionalised Islamophobia and its effects, how it trickles down into the daily norm, the normalised toxicity of politics, the harmful rhetoric that is more and more widespread, and how being visibly Muslim and wearing the niqab plays into her political and personal identity. Should she be successful, she would be the first niqabi member of a European parliament, and in this conversation she shares why this is long overdue. As she explains, struggle is a catalyst in crossing these boundaries, and now is more paramount a time than ever to rise up and be heard. -- Get in touch with us and share your thoughts!

Combining her life experiences with her line of research, Suriyah delves into the topic of inequality, touching on social mobility, islamophobia, positive discrimination and more.

The festival, held virtually for all of October, was started by Naima B Robert in the wake of the upsurge that the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement has seen over the summer. The idea has been to invite guests from all backgrounds, from poetry to comedy to entrepreneurship, to come together in this festival to celebrate Black Muslims. Our guests discuss this topic in the context of the BLM movement, touching on what it means to celebrate our identity and why it’s important to do so. The conversation also addresses the All Lives Matter (ALM) movement, internalised prejudice, and just the general discomfort that can come from tackling these issues head-on. Our guests invite you to embrace this discomfort, to let it show you areas to focus on within yourself.

The conversation opens with a series of poems Ali wrote over the course of Ramadhan and quickly moves to talk about the miracle of the poetry that comprises the Qur'an. They draw parallels between poetry and hip-hop, looking at a brief history of music in Islam, and how the Qur'an impacted it. Touching on hip-hop, the discussion delves into why the genre draws the appeal that it does, and putting forth the notion that if we began to look at the Qur'an in a different light, perhaps we would be able to draw more meaning from the words that have been arranged so artfully within it. -- Take a look at Ali's poetry on Instagram @alithesoulfulpoet and on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCt9dNDJ6l4NC2EcLAjB3FwA Listen to our podcast with Jae Deen here: https://anchor.fm/themuslimvibe/episodes/Ep-44---Jae-Deen-On-Writing-Out-The-Quran--Muslim-Influencers-and-Deen-Squad-Controversy-e3f4gj The Muslim Vibe has launched a new podcast!

Further on, Fatema talks about some of the struggles she faced in her career, reflecting on how it never was easy sailing.

Ramadhan Mubarak! This week our host Salim speaks to Iqbal Nasim of the National Zakat Foundation.  It tends to be one of the topics that isn't explored all that much, but in this week's conversation, Salim and Iqbal take a much deeper look at Zakat and how it affects our society. They look at its importance in Islam and impact on the local communities, with Iqbal sharing some of his stronger opinions on the topic, and his reasoning for why.  As he explains his logic and thinking around his approach to Zakat, this discussion leaves us wondering why we didn't share his point of view from the start.  -- Support our Ramadhan campaign! http://www.launchgood.com/TMVSyriaAppeal If you would like to help support us at The Muslim Vibe, you can do so by visiting this link: https://themuslimvibe.com/support.

A trip down memory lane walks us through the story behind singlemuslim.com, taking us through the journey of how an office above a pizza shop turned into a well-known platform with thousands of users. The platform has seen a surge in the number of users as lockdown measures have been put into place, prompting Salim and Adeem to ask one question - why? They speculate over what the reasons could be, discussing how the pandemic has affected how people get to know each other, and whether conversing online can truly substitute meeting face-to-face.

We made the trip down to Parliament this week to talk to Slough MP Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi (AKA Tan). A video of MP Tan speaking at the House of Commons a few weeks ago went viral and he passionately berated UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson over his comments about Muslim women and the lack of action from the Conservative party with regards to Islamophobia within the party.  We naturally spoke about this incident on our podcast and we also discussed his personal journey into politics and his views on diversity and representation within parliament. We put questions from our listeners to him and discussed Kashmir, historic Sikh and Muslim relations and even the (in our opinion, somewhat jarring) parliamentary traditions. (Note from Salim: I realise I pronounced Tan's last name wrong in my intro, if you're reading this Tan, I am very sorry!)  --- Big shoutout to Infocus Opticians in Baker Street, who let us record our intro and outro in their shop.
