Podcasts about Quran

The Bible has endured generations of skeptical scrutiny. The Quran and Hindu scriptures hasn't and cannot endure the same level of scrutiny.   So what has archaeology actually uncovered? @DineshDSouza joins me to ask: Are the stones telling a different story?

When any Muslim worships, from anywhere in the world, they orientate themselves towards Mecca. Whether in a mosque, at home, or outdoors, this act of orientation is a prerequisite of prayer. So much so, in fact, that it is easy to take this for granted, without wondering how this came about, and what Muslim—and non-Muslim—scholars thought about it over the centuries. In this episode, we explore the origins, implications and debates about qibla, or sacred orientation, from the verses of the Quran through the inter-religious dialogues of the medieval period and the evidence of early mosque architecture. Nile Green talks to Ari M. Gordon, author of Sacred Orientation in Late Antiquity and Early Islam (Routledge, 2026).

(Get a FREE CALL): https://mindful-muslimah.com/qualify-20-minute-call-ytad2026/ -----Almost 50% of Muslim marriages are struggling, and 70% of the time it's women initiating the divorce. Why are so many of us walking into marriage excited, then finding ourselves unsatisfied within a year or two? In this episode, we're talking about what men actually want, straight from the voices of men.We talk about:

A Muslim caller from Senegal joins to defend Islam—but Marquett zeroes in on one issue: the Quran's original language.If the Quran was revealed in Arabic, can someone who doesn't understand Arabic claim to have actually read and fully understood it?The debate becomes increasingly intense as Marquett challenges the caller on translations, prayer, language, and religious conviction.⸻

In this episode of Crossing Faiths, John Pinna speaks with Aiden Simardone about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, shifting American political dynamics, and the role of alternative media and discourse in shaping public understanding. Simardone details his research methodology as an analyst and podcaster, outlines his critique of Zionism as an ideology distinct from Judaism, and argues that evolving demographic attitudes in both the United States and the Jewish diaspora are weakening unconditional support for Israel. The discussion covers the legal and moral implications of the war in Gaza, potential domestic accountability for citizens participating in foreign military actions, and economic and demographic vulnerabilities within Israel. Simardone advocates for a single-state solution ensuring equal rights for all inhabitants alongside economic redistribution, while predicting that an eventual decline in U.S. intervention will coincide with a broader shift toward a multipolar Middle East. Aidan Simardone is a geopolitical analyst and immigration lawyer. His writings on international relations have appeared in Newsweek, Jacobin and The Cradle. Aidan's legal advocacy has been featured in The Guardian, Al Jazeera and CBC. He hosts the Simardone Show and produces videos on current events and Global South history on social media @aidansimardone. In 2023 he received media attention for being "The Smartest Man In Canada" after a street interview went viral.

Marquett sits down with a Christian and a Muslim for a heated debate over Christianity, Islam, Jesus, faith, slavery, colonialism, and whether religion can truly be judged by its results.The conversation quickly intensifies as Marquett challenges both sides: If a religion claims to come from God and produce moral people, what happens when its followers commit atrocities in its name?The debate goes even deeper into whether Jesus is God, the Trinity, the Quran and Hadith, ISIS and religious extremism, Christian colonialism, the Trans-Saharan slave trade, Islam's relationship with Africa, and whether believers use a double standard to defend their own faith.Three perspectives. Three radically different worldviews. Which argument actually survives the scrutiny?⸻

We explore the preservation and authenticity of Hadith, why the Sunnah is essential to understanding the Quran, and how astronomical data and early manuscripts provide compelling evidence for the historical accuracy of Hadith.

In today's tafsir, we respond to critics of the Quran who claim that Muslims cannot agree on the meaning of its verses. We examine the meanings behind the word "curse" and explore how God's blessings are often hidden behind life's difficulties.

What if changing your life starts with changing what's happening within you?If you're anxious about your future—worried about your job, school, finding a spouse, money, or whether your life is going in the right direction—this conversation is for you.We're joined by Muhammad Ubaidy to explore how Islam can change the way we understand ourselves, our struggles, and the future we're so often afraid of.We talk about the Quran, the nafs, self-awareness, sin, spiritual discipline, rizq, dua, destiny, and what it means to truly trust Allah. Muhammad explains why we aren't simply our thoughts, how our past can shape the way we experience life, and how hardship can become part of our spiritual transformation.What do you do when you've made dua but feel like nothing is changing? How do you stop overthinking your future? Can you change your destiny? What does it actually mean to have tawakkul and trust that Allah has a plan for you?We also explore the stories of the Prophets and how their lives can help us understand the different states we experience within ourselves.If you're struggling with anxiety, uncertainty, your faith, your purpose, or fear about what's coming next, this episode offers a deeper Islamic perspective on finding peace, strengthening your relationship with Allah, and learning to trust what you cannot yet see.JOIN OUR WEBSITE MEMBERSHIP! @ https://ansaripodcast.comThank You for Your Support!*The Debt Clinic*: https://www.mydebtclinic.com/ansari*Provision Capital:* https://www.provisioncapital.com00:00 The Quran Rewires Your Subconscious11:52 Our Partners13:26 Change what's within…21:12 Can You Convince Allah to Change Your Destiny?30:20 Can You Speak Things into Existence?40:27 How do You Live with yourself when so Sinful?49:25 What if You've Made Dua but Lost Hope?58:46 What if Your past comes to chase you?01:01:50 Final Thoughts01:02:24 Speed Round Questions01:07:01 Connecting to Quranic Dua01:15:30 Outro#spirituality #islam #motivation #quran #selfimprovement #subconsciousreprogramming #tawakkul #innergrowth #wealth #rizq #islamicmotivation *Listen on All Audio Platforms:* https://tr.ee/JeX-ILYSyj*Follow The Ansari Podcast**Instagram:* https://instagram.com/ansaripodcast*TikTok:* https://tiktok.com/@theansaripodcast*Twitter/X:* https://twitter.com/ansaripodcast

Big Jolt to Muslims: High Court के इस आदेश के बाद मचा मुसलमानों में हाहाकार | Quran & Manusmriti

In today's episode of The Atheist Experience, Godless Engineer, Sofia Spina, and Kelley Laughlin tackle divine command theory, biblical atrocities, and the question of whether God's treatment of children can ever be justified.Quincy-TX argues the Bible proves God because it's a physical book, just like maps prove locations exist. The hosts challenge whether a book's existence proves its supernatural claims. Does the Quran prove Allah? What about biblical contradictions and commands to harm children? Quincy insists atheists choose hell, but can't explain why divine command theory makes genocide moral.Jeff-PA asks why the hosts won't repent and defends Old Testament commands. The discussion turns to Numbers 31's sex trafficking of virgin girls and Deuteronomy 21's war bride laws. Jeff claims the New Covenant supersedes these commands, but struggles when asked if God's nature changed. Why would an unchanging God order child harm in one era but condemn it in another?God's Son-MD claims stabbing babies can be merciful and rape builds character and individuality. He argues God intentionally created suffering to develop human traits. The hosts challenge whether a being who commands evil can be called good. The call ends when the caller pivots to anti-LGBTQ bigotry.Steven-CO insists previous callers were pagans, claims God is balanced rather than purely good, and refuses evidence beyond scripture. He repeatedly makes racist claims about Edomites being white people. When asked for evidence, Steven deflects. Why should anyone accept claims without demonstration?Thank you for joining us this week!

We'll talk about why historical context matters, how to approach difficult passages, and what Israel's story teaches us about God's faithfulness.In this episode: Why understanding the backstory can change how we read the Bible  How the Old Testament points us toward Jesus  What happens when culture starts shaping our definition of success  What it means to read the Old Testament for inspiration without treating it like a modern rulebook  How God's faithfulness gives us something to trust when our own stories feel unfinished Plus, we tackle a question from the Q-Bar about the history of the Quran.JOIN US SUNDAY!

In this episode of Crossing Faiths, John Pinna speaks with Naweed Kawusi, a former Colonel in the Afghan National Army and author of The Bleeding Nation, about his harrowing escape from Afghanistan during the 2021 collapse and his transition to life in Brazil. The conversation delves into the complex history of foreign intervention in Afghanistan, with Kawusi arguing that the nation's "Gordian knot" of problems stems from a cycle of ethnic grievances and reliance on external benefactors rather than internal accountability. They explore the failures of the previous Republic, the self-interested legacy of Afghan warlords, and the strategic nature of the current Taliban regime. Ultimately, Kawusi emphasizes that long-term stability requires a shift away from "quick wins" and toward grassroots education and a unified Afghan identity that transcends historical divisions and foreign agendas. Naweed is a retired colonel who served with the Afghanistan National Defense and Security Forces, beginning with the Afghan Commandos in 2002 and then again from 2019 with the Afghanistan National Police. Before the fall of Kabul in 2021, he oversaw support and outreach to over 130,000 police families across Afghanistan's 34 provinces. Before that, he served as Director General of International Cooperation at Afghanistan's Ministry of Interior, where he led the ministry's development effort in rebuilding the Afghanistan National Police within the mandate of the Law and Order Trust Fund for Afghanistan (LOTFA), a 22-nation reconstruction fund. He founded the Kabul Institute, an Afghan-led policy and research organization focused on governance, accountability, and peacebuilding in Afghanistan, and teaches at the University of São Paulo. He is the author of The Bleeding Nation: Superpowers, Ethnic Politics, and Afghanistan's Collapse and The Brave and the Corrupt, forthcoming by McFarland Publishers. Naweed also serves as COO of EOPA (Elected Officials to Protect America), where he oversees the organization's overall operations and strategic direction. He is also a member of the Military Writers Guild, a global non-profit network of service members, veterans, civilian analysts, journalists, and writers dedicated to advocating for, collaborating on, and promoting military affairs and security-related writing.

We break down exactly how Islam's system of primary and secondary sources works, why the Quran and Sunnah are inseparable pillars, and why the modern "Quran-only" movement collapses under basic Islamic and linguistic scrutiny.

On this episode of The Ash Said It Show, host Ash welcomes Indy Pederson, a provocative author, adventurer, and researcher whose work challenges the very fabric of human history, geopolitics, and reality itself. Pederson joins the show to discuss his groundbreaking two-volume work, Sacrificing Humanity—a blistering exposé merging modern UAP phenomena, ancient religious prophecy, and covert geopolitical secrets. Indy breaks down the modern Galileo Moment, discussing why recent Congressional hearings on UAPs signal a terrifying realization that humanity is not the center of the universe and is dangerously close to a self-inflicted nuclear war. He details the alarming frequency of UAPs disabling nuclear missile command and control systems, as well as the physical toll and injuries inflicted on launch site personnel. The discussion dives deep into the prophetic script of every major world religion—from biblical scripture and the Quran to Hindu texts and Hopi prophecy—asking whether ancient warnings of Armageddon were meant to alter our path or push us toward a destructive end driven by malevolent forces.

Dr. Jay Smith on Islam's Origins: Sources, Mecca, Muhammad, and the Quran Larry interviews Dr. Jay Smith, a Christian Islamicist and polemicist, who presents a visual, source-based critique of Islam's origins focused on four areas: the reliability and timing of Islamic sources, the historical plausibility of Mecca, early evidence for Muhammad, and the compilation and preservation claims of the Quran. Smith argues that key Islamic biographies, hadith, tafsir, and histories appear 200–300 years after Muhammad and were produced far from Mecca and Medina, that early external and geographic evidence does not support Mecca's centrality or even early existence, that early inscriptions and coinage suggest a later development of distinct Islamic identity and the term “Muhammad” as a title, and that multiple qira'at and manuscript variants challenge the claim of a single unchanged Quran. He concludes by urging Christians to use this material to point Muslims to Jesus and the Bible.

In this episode of Crossing Faiths, John Pinna speaks with John Havens about the intersections of artificial intelligence, human dignity, and holistic well-being. Reflecting on his 2016 book Heartificial Intelligence: Embracing Our Humanity to Maximize Machines, Havens argues that the rush to automate and replicate human intelligence must be grounded in clear boundaries, ethical disclosures, and genuine care for human flourishing rather than mere economic productivity or artificial engagement. Throughout their dialogue, the two explore the psychological, ecological, and spiritual consequences of generative AI and large language models, warning against dangerous anthropomorphism and unvetted deployments that risk mental health harms, environmental resource drain, and the uncredited scraping of creators' work. Ultimately, Havens advocates for shifting focus away from narratives of human obsolescence toward the empirical science of positive psychology, life satisfaction, and grounded community relationships—such as the simple, irreplaceable value of baking bread and personal connection—asserting that true fulfillment and human worth exist independently of technological mediation.

In this video, we explore why Muslim youth are drawn to hadith rejection and Qur'an only ideologies, tracing the pattern back to broken hearts and harsh treatment within religious communities, before turning to examples from the Prophet's ﷺ life that model compassion over harshness, and laying out why the sunnah is essential to properly understanding and practicing Islam.

Did you know that there is an Aya in the Quran honoring a Jewish Rabbi? It's an incredible story of respect and recognition that's often overlooked. Stay tuned till the end of today's Tafsir, and we will tell you all about it. Let's begin.

What happens when we spend so much time looking at what others have that we lose sight of what Allah has already given us?In this episode of Quran Conversations, Dalia Mogahed is joined by her teacher, Imam Mohamed Magid, to reflect on verses 131–133 of Surah TaHa.The conversation begins with Allah's warning not to gaze longingly at the beauty and luxuries others have been given in this world. What looks like success may simply be a test, and what Allah provides is ultimately better and more lasting. Imam Magid reflects on the danger of becoming captivated by appearances, wealth, status, and material success, especially when what we admire may have been built through injustice or harm.In this episode, you will learn:

Patrick answers a wide range of questions from naming children after saints and the nuances of choosing Old Testament versus New Testament names to the subtle reverence Catholics bring to sacred images and Eucharistic practices, even when these collide with interfaith customs in hospital chapels. The discussion winds through what truly fulfills the Sunday Mass obligation post-COVID, explores Catholic marriage validity for non-Catholics and atheists, and lands on the thorny art of sharing moral beliefs without sounding judgmental. Denise (email) - Is it preferable to name a baby after a New Testament person rather than an Old Testament person? I understand that there is nothing wrong with using an Old Testament name, but is it better to use a New Testament one? And is using a saint's name the best of all? (01:00) Mark (email) - I recently received a Divine Mercy visor clip for my truck. When I’m not using the visor to block the sun, Jesus is upright and watching over me. However, when I need to block the sun with the visor in order to see better while driving, the image is upside down. I worry that having The Divine Mercy image upside down while using my visor is somehow disrespectful. What is your opinion? (05:00) Emily (email) - According to Redemptoris Sacramentum (paragraphs 183–184), every Catholic has a serious duty to protect the Eucharist from any irreverence or abuse. What can I do when a hospital chapel has a tabernacle (but no crucifix), the tabernacle is pushed to the side next to Muslim prayer rugs and Qurans, an electric sanctuary lamp, and a multi-religion pillar on the main altar? (06:35) Theresa - Is it okay to watch Mass online instead of physically going to Mass when it doesn't work out with things going on in your life? (11:25) Sebastian - What authority governs non-Catholic marriages that they must have children? How can we live an upright life voicing concerns but not be a morality cop (14:43) Anne - I'm a Roman Catholic Chaplain for a hospital. We have electric light in our chapel where Jesus is, but it’s also interdenominational chapel. (27:25) Sean - How would you help a close parish friend who is suddenly consuming marijuana? (35:56) Cyra – If someone is baptized Catholic marrying baptized Christian, and not married in faith or not wanting kids, is that a valid marriage? (38:36) Lisa - Priest asked a family to bring home the blessed sacrament for the weekend. Is that okay to do? (45:40)

We all hear about how radical Islam is a threat to the "western world" and how Muslims beat women, slaughter gays, hate dogs, and despise Christians. But is that really true? What are the actual sources of these accusations; and would you believe evidence that proved without a doubt that these were malicious lies told about Islam for some nefarious purpose. Suppose they were; what would that mean for the people who believe them, and for those who have peddled them since before 911. Most people would be shocked to learn that the Quran, Hadiths of Muhammad, and Islamic legal systems all condemn the abuse and murder of women. An-Nisa 4:34 begins our journey. Many would probably be shocked to learn that the one reference to punishing a wife is actually a relatively universal practice that is meant to be a ritualized, symbolic punishment and not anything more. Most surprising of all, however, is that statistical data where it is kept seems to indicate that Christian households experience far more physical, sexual, and spiritual abuse than Muslim households.https://quran.com/an-nisa/34https://www.churchtimes.co.uk/articles/2023/23-june/news/uk/christian-teaching-linked-to-domestic-abuse-research-finds*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

The episode critically examines the claims of Islam, the historical evidence of Jesus' crucifixion, and the reliability of the Bible. It challenges the Quran's denial of Jesus' crucifixion and the claim that Muhammad was foretold in Scripture.

So sis, is it actually possible to find a good man the real way, especially after divorce? The answer is not always, unless you have a few critical things in place first, and one of them changes everything.We talk about:

Can we really trust the Bible—or is it merely a collection of ancient stories that has been changed over time?In this episode, Joel Settecase explains why Christians can confidently receive the Bible as the true, authoritative, and preserved word of God. You'll learn what makes Scripture unlike every other religious book, how its 66 books present one unified message, and why archaeology and manuscript evidence support its historical reliability.Joel also addresses common objections, including:• “The Bible is just a book of fairy tales.”• “It has been corrupted through centuries of copying.”• “The books of the Bible were chosen by later church councils.”• “The Bible is no different from the Quran, the Book of Mormon, or other religious texts.”You'll discover what the Dead Sea Scrolls reveal about the preservation of the Old Testament, how the early church recognized the books of the New Testament, and why textual variants do not undermine any essential Christian doctrine.The episode also explores the “impossibility of the contrary”: attempts to disprove Scripture must rely on logic, morality, and the orderly nature of the universe—realities that only make sense within the biblical worldview.Ultimately, defending the Bible is not merely about winning an argument. It is about pointing people to Jesus Christ. Scripture reveals that we have sinned against a holy God, but Jesus died for sinners, was buried, rose from the dead, and now offers forgiveness and eternal life to everyone who repents and believes.This was a talk I gave at Hope Reformed Baptist Church in Coram, NY.

The Quran verse that justified enslaving 700 American sailors, and the war it triggered just years after the Revolution. In this episode, historian Bill Federer reveals the forgotten story of the Barbary pirates: a demand rooted in Islamic scripture, a 20% tribute tax that drained the U.S. federal budget, and the American sailors who spent years chained in the dungeons of Algiers, Tunis, and Tripoli. Lance Wallnau and Federer trace how this crisis forced the Founders to build a stronger federal government, one capable of raising a navy and standing up to a threat most Americans have never been taught about. Along the way, they unpack Jefferson's direct meeting with a Muslim ambassador who cited the Quran to justify the enslavement of non-believers, and how that confrontation shaped early American foreign policy. It's a story about scripture used to justify conquest, and a young nation forced to decide what it would fight to protect Podcast Episode 2199: The Verse In The Quran That Started a War With America | don't miss this!
