Podcasts about salafi

You've been told Allah hears and sees — but then you're told “Don't take it literally.” You hear about His Names and Attributes — and it's all explained away as metaphor. How did something so clear become so confusing? Because the ʿAqeedah of the Salaf was replaced — by opinions, philosophy, and reinterpreted religion. This poem, Al-Ha'iyyah by Ibn Abi Dawud, brings it all back. Thirty-three lines that defended the truth when people tried to distort it — especially about Allah, His Names and Attributes, and the very foundations of belief. In this session, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan explains: - The right stance towards the companions رضي الله عنهم — and why it's non-negotiable - The proper affirmation of Allah's Names and Attributes - How the Jahmiyyah and Muʿtazilah were intellectually dismantled - Why the Salafi creed is clear, consistent, and preserved If you're tired of confusion and want to be grounded in what the early generations were upon — this is where you start.

Read Djene's piece in Compact Magazine here: https://www.compactmag.com/.../neoliberalism-with.../...   For many Syrians, the events of December 2024 had a surreal quality. After nearly a decade and a half of brutal civil war, it had seemed that the regime of Bashar al-Assad had fended off any serious challenges to its authority. Assad and his supporters may not have been able to deliver a killing blow to the various opposition forces in the country, but they had managed to confine them to the country's periphery. That all changed in late November, when Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), a Sunni Islamist group led by former al-Qaeda militant, Ahmad al-Sharaa, launched a lightning offensive from its stronghold on the Turkish-Syrian border, which brought an end to more than half a century of Assad family rule within a matter of weeks.   Check out our new bi-weekly series, "The Crisis Papers" here: https://www.patreon.com/bitterlakepresents/shop   Thank you guys again for taking the time to check this out.

The past several days have seen horrifying sectarian massacres in Syria. Over 1,000 people have been killed, mostly Alawites and some Christians, in Latakia and Tartus. The perpetrators? Sectarian death squads from HTS, led by Syria's new president, Mohammed al-Jolani—formerly the leader of Al-Qaeda in Syria.Western media is whitewashing these atrocities, falsely framing them as “revenge” against pro-Assad remnants. But the truth is clear: Syria is now controlled by Salafi jihadists who openly target minorities. How did this happen? What is the reality on the ground? And why is the media complicit in covering up genocide?Veteran war correspondent Elijah Magnier joins Dispatches for a special live episode to break down the facts the media won't tell you.

Har du någonsin känt press att "välja sida" inom islam? I dagens avsnitt samtalar Salih med Salim om grupperingar bland muslimer och behovet av tillhörighet.I samtalet utforskar de den känsliga balansen mellan gemenskap och sekterism. Våra gäster delar med sig av personliga erfarenheter om hur grupplojalitet ibland kan stå i vägen för islams grundprinciper.Lyssna för att höra hur vi kan fokusera på det som verkligen förenar muslimer – Koranen och Sunna – istället för att fastna i etiketter som "salafi" eller "sufi".

Ustadz Sofyan Chalid bin Idham Ruray, Lc. - Jadilah Salafi Sejati

Far too ignorant of the histories of the rest of the world, being aware of only the accomplishments of Greece, Rome and Europe, Westerners have been made to believe that their societies represent the most superior examples of civilization. However, the Western value system stems from a misconception that, as in nature, human society too is evolving. The idea derives from the hidden influence of secret societies, who followed the belief in spiritual evolution of the Kabbalah, which taught that history would attain its fulfillment when man would become God, and make his own laws.Therefore, the infamous Illuminati gave its name to the Enlightenment of the eighteenth century,which claimed that human progress must abandon "superstition," meaning Christianity, in favor of "reason." Thus the Illuminati succeeded in bringing about the French and American revolutions, which instituted the separation of Church and State, and from that point forward, the Western values of Humanism, seen to include secularism, human rights, democracy and capitalism, have been celebrated as the culmination of centuries of human intellectual evolution.This is the basis of the propaganda which has been used to foster a Clash of Civilizations, where the Islamic world is presented as stubbornly adhering to the anachronistic idea of "theocracy." Where once the spread of Christianity and civilizing the world were used as pretexts for colonization, today a new White Man's Burden makes use of human rights and democracy to justify imperial aggression.However, because, after centuries of decline, the Islamic world is incapable of mobilizing a defense, the Western powers, as part of their age-old strategy of Divide and Conquer, have fostered the rise of Islamic fundamentalism, to both serve as agent-provocateurs and to malign the image of Islam. These sects, known to scholars as Revivalists, opposed the traditions of classical Islamic scholarship in order to create the opportunity to rewrite the laws of the religion to better serve their sponsors. Thus were created the Wahhabi and Salafi sects of Islam, from which were derived the Muslim Brotherhood, which has been in the service of the West ever since.But, the story of the development of these Islamic sects involves the bizarre doctrines and hidden networks of occult secret societies, being based on a Rosicrucian myth of Egyptian Freemasonry, which see the Muslim radicals as inheritors of an ancient mystery tradition of the Middle East which was passed on to the Knights Templar during the Crusades, thus forming the foundation of the legends of the Holy Grail. These beliefs would not only form the cause for the association of Western intelligence agencies with Islamic fundamentalists, but would fundamentally shape much of twentieth century history.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Israel, the most hated country in the world, has decided to pick a fight with the most loved, Ireland. Refugees flow into Lebanon.

After helping to overthrow leader Bashar al-Assad, Israel destroyed Syria's military capabilities and is seizing territory, annexing the Golan Heights and occupying more land. The Al-Qaeda-linked Salafi-jihadist rebels who now rule Syria, led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), have allowed Israel to do this. HTS leader (and former Al-Qaeda chief) Abu Mohammad al-Jolani said "We are not looking to engage in a conflict with Israel". Ben Norton reports.

The Syrian government was overthrown, and Salafi-jihadist rebels led by a rebranded version of Al-Qaeda called Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) took power in Damascus. US President Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu boasted of helping topple Bashar al-Assad. NATO member Turkey played a key role as well.

Send us a textThe conversation explores the rise of Christian nationalism and the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) in American politics. The guest, Matthew Taylor, discusses the theological and social shifts within the religious right, the influence of charismatic Christianity, and the role of violence in their beliefs. The conversation also delves into the four quadrant model of American Christianity and the impact of charismatic leaders like Paula White. The chapter titles could include 'The Rise of Christian Nationalism', 'Understanding the New Apostolic Reformation', 'The Theology of Violence', and 'The Paradox of Empowering Women'. The New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) movement, led by figures like C. Peter Wagner, has had a significant impact on American Christianity and politics. The NAR combines charismatic worship music with political activism, using worship as a way to insert religion into public debates. This worship music industrial complex has enculturated the far right of America to see themselves as the true worshipers of God, standing against the idolatry and demonic realm that surrounds them. The NAR movement is on the upswing, with its ideas becoming more mainstream among American evangelicals. It has also infiltrated the militia movement and white nationalist scripts.Buy the book: https://a.co/d/5yUwxSeGuest Bio:Matthew D.

Olin Giles interviews Thomas Samuel, a former, radical salafi Muslim who encountered Jesus. In his new autobiography, Thomas Samuel describes his gut-wrenching conversion experience from radical Salafi Islam to becoming a follower of Jesus Christ. From a young age, Thomas was a devout Muslim who memorized the entire Quran, led prayer in the mosque, and dreamed of jihad and martyrdom. However, his life was turned radically upside down when Jesus came to him in a series of dreams, setting in motion a chain of events that would ultimately cause him to rebel and leave Islam while searching for truth in various world religions, none of which brought peace to his tormented soul. Thomas offers a window deep into the daily life, faith, and worldview of the Salafi community. He also outlines the moral, historical, and philosophical problems he found in the Quran and the earliest biography of Muhammad. These inconsistencies caused him to leave Islam and run for his life to Jesus. Website: https://www.radicaltruth.net Donate: https://www.radicaltruth.net/donate

We're back for season two, and we're kicking it off by talking to Dr. Matthew D. Taylor about that weird An Appeal to Heaven flag that got Justice Samuel Alito in so much trouble!

His book, Scripture People: Salafi Muslims in Evangelical Christians' America (Cambridge University Press), offers an introduction to the oft-misunderstood Salafi movement in the U.S. by way of comparison with American Evangelicalism. He is also the creator of the acclaimed audio-documentary series  “Charismatic Revival Fury: The New Apostolic Reformation,” which details how networks of extremist Christian leaders helped instigate the January 6th Insurrection. His next book, The Violent Take It By Force: The Christian movement that is threatening our democracy (Broadleaf Books), will be published in Fall 2024. He joined Kelly and John to talk about the threat to democracy the flag represents, and offered his thoughts about what we can still do to break the spell of Christian Nationalism in America.

From the Engelsberg Ideas Archive. The organisation that emerged under the name ISIS is not simply a terrorist group. It is a hybrid organisation comprised of a proto-state, a millenarian cult capable of attracting recruits from far beyond its borders, a network of Salafi jihadist groups, an organised criminal ring and an insurgent army led by highly skilled former Baathist military and intelligence personnel.

The state of Yemen in 2023 is precarious. After the Arab Spring revolution descended into civil war, the Houthis have cemented their power over large swathes of Northern Yemen, while the traditional ruling parties have fractured and, in many cases, disintegrated. In this final episode of our mammoth exploration of the history of Yemen - and indeed season 4 of Conflicted - we bring things up to the modern day, stepping back from historical narrative to try and make sense of what has happened and what it means for the country and the region. Over the course of this season, we've taken listeners through all the historical antecedents to modern Salafi Jihadism from Ahmad Bin Hanbal in the eighth century to Sayyid Qutb in the 1960s. We've looked at the Muslim Brotherhood, President Erdogan of Turkey, Iran, and their proxies across the region like Hezbollah. And now, as the conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza continues, we can see so many of the themes and ideas that we've talked about this series playing out in real time. This final episode, which sees us joined for the final time by Yemeni political activist Baraa Shaiban, attempts to make sense of current events in Yemen and beyond in the context of  Salafi and Shia jihadism. We ask what the future holds for the Middle East, and what we can learn from the tumultuous history of the region as the world attempts to bring peace to the geopolitical situation of today.

Foundations of the Salafi Da'wah _ Lesson 7 by Albaseerah

The Status of the Sunnah in Islaam • The terms/words sunnah, Salafi, etc. are all praiseworthy • 2 types of sinners • The Sinner who is aware the he is sinful • This individual commits sins while knowing himself to be sinful, and is under the threat of punishment • This is because he is opposing the command of Allah, and the Sunnah of the Messenger (salallāhu ‘alaihi wasallam) • This individual may be led to success through Tawbah/Repentance • The other is the sinner who leaves off the Sunnah due to doubts • This individual is considered to be from the people of desires and they are worse than the first, as he will believe he is upon the truth and will not repent/make Tawbah • You must question the deeds that you have put forth • The Sunnah is of great value, like treasure is in a worldly sense, so one must protect it • The Companions were the original protectors of the Sunnah, and they are all trustworthy • People become higher in our view when they are praised by scholars and trustworthy people, so what about the Companions, who were praised by Allah in multiple places in the Qur'ān • Those who question the character about the Companions are doing so in order to bring about doubts about the Sunnah • Anas Ibn Mālik narrated little from the Messenger (salallāhu ‘alaihi wasallam) out of fear of narrating that which is not from the Sunnah, and he was from the Mukthireen (Those who narrated the most) • Narration: “Whoever lies about me intentionally, then let him take his seat in the fire.” • The Companions didn't just narrate whatever they heard, unlike many speakers today • People have been afflicted by their desire for fame/leadership, so they speak without confirming that they are narrating from the Sunnah • That which you narrate can be a means for someone's guidance/salvation, so be sure of it! • Study/Revision of the Hadith brings it to life • The Messenger of Allah (sallallāhu alaihi wa sallam) said, “There will not cease to be a group of my Ummah uppermost upon the truth. They will not be harmed by those who forsake them, until Allah's affair comes to pass and they are uppermost.” [Reported by Muslim]' • The people of Hadith are the people who will be saved from the misguides and the fire, so upon you is to be amongst them, therefore study: • The Book of Allah • The Sunnah • The lives of the companions • The Tābi'een • The Tābi Tābi'een • The A'Imma (Scholars upon the Sunnah, the Muhaddithīn, Mufassirīn, etc.) • Within all of this revelation and commentary of it, is a means for a person's Istiqāma

Thus were created the Wahhabi and Salafi sects of Islam, from which were derived the Muslim Brotherhood, which has been in the service of the West ever since.But, the story of the development of these Islamic sects involves the bizarre doctrines and hidden networks of occult secret societies, being based on a Rosicrucian myth of Egyptian Freemasonry, which see the Muslim radicals as inheritors of an ancient mystery tradition of the Middle East which was passed on to the Knights Templar during the Crusades, thus forming the foundation of the legends of the Holy Grail. These beliefs would not only form the cause for the association of Western intelligence agencies with Islamic fundamentalists, but would fundamentally shape much of twentieth century history. https://amzn.to/3PhwVPnThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/1198501/advertisement

After finishing our extensive exploration into some of the most colourful and fascinating characters in Islamic History - figures who influenced modern Salafi jihadism as we know it today - Conflicted aims its sights on a modern group with an equally significant position in the Muslim world. This is a group whose nebulous, clandestine structure makes them tricky to unravel. A group based in Egypt but with tentacles across the Middle East and beyond. A group who once boasted our previous subject, Sayyid Qutb, as a member. The Muslim Brotherhood. But who are they really? How are they structured? And are they the radical Islamists that many claim, or in fact a moderate group with relatively modest aims? In this first of two episodes on the Muslim Brotherhood, we try to unlock their structure, discovering how they function in countries across the Muslim world, to answer these questions and more.

The later part of Ibn Taymiyyah's life saw continued invasions from Mongol Hordes from the outside, and a battle against Sufi mystics in his own society. And for the man himself, it was defined by a continuation of one thing more than any other: a zeal against irreligion. While confronting the Mamluk Sultan and preaching anti-Mongol fatwas, he cemented himself as the great mediaeval scholar and warrior he is now remembered as. And he set an ideological precedent which modern Salafi jihadists continue to follow to this day. This week's episode of Conflicted sees us delve into the latter part of Ibn Taymiyyah's thrilling life to understand what it can tell us about the Middle East today, and how the ripples of his fundamentalist ideology continue to influence the thought of so many radical Muslims.

Foundations of the Salafi Da'wah - Lesson 6 by Albaseerah

In this enlightening episode, we are joined by special guest Matthew D. Taylor, PhD, as we delve into the intriguing world of the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR). Together, we'll explore the beliefs, origins, and impact of the NAR, shedding light on its relevance to both religious and political spheres.Dr. Matthew D. Taylor, a respected expert in religious studies, brings his wealth of knowledge to guide us through the complexities of the NAR. We'll uncover the teachings of C. Peter Wagner, the seminary professor who coined the term "New Apostolic Reformation" in the 1990s, and explore the transformative influence he had on Pentecostal Charismatic Christianity.Join us as we examine the role of apostles and prophets in church leadership, as emphasized by the NAR. Together with Dr. Taylor, we'll discuss how this movement challenges established structures and fosters new perspectives on leadership within faith communities.Through engaging conversations, we'll explore the growth of the NAR and the rise of self-proclaimed apostles and prophets, as Dr. Taylor provides insights into their significance in shaping modern Christianity. We'll also delve into the unique structure of the NAR, which prioritizes personal connections over traditional denominational hierarchies.In addition, we'll tackle the concept of strategic spiritual warfare—a topic that sparks debate within the NAR. Dr. Taylor will shed light on the belief in territorial spirits and their supposed influence over physical regions, as well as their role in the NAR's approach to prayer and spiritual battles.Here's the series we reference on the program- Charismatic Revival Fury: The New Apostolic Reformation https://www.straightwhiteamericanjesus.com/series/charismatic-revival-fury/Guest Bio:Matthew D.

In recent decades many attacks have been launched against the concept of taqlid [following a school of Islamic law]. Opposition has ranged from being mild with degrees of acceptance to malicious attacks. Certain extreme elements have gone so far as to brand those who follow a madhhab [school] as mushrik [polytheist]. Much of the opposition has been a result of misunderstanding the realities of this concept.

Foundations of the Salafi Da'wah - Lesson 4 by Albaseerah

Who are the Salafis, and what are the roots of Salafism? What does it even mean to be Salafi? Why is Salafism concerned with ethics of visibility and bodily regulation? Why, when, and how did Salafism become significant?  In his latest book, In the Shade of the Sunnah: Salafi Piety in the 20th Century Middle East (University of California Press, 2022), Aaron Rock-Singer explores these questions and many more about Salafism. Rock-Singer situates Salafism as a movement whose core logic is shaped by questions that emerge distinctly during modernity even though the movement derives its claims to legitimacy from claims to continuity with early Islamic history. In other words, Salafism is a distinctly modern project that is not rooted in the Islamic legal, textual, or ethical tradition, given that many Salafi practices aren't rooted in Islamic texts. As a result, Salafis finds themselves in a challenging textual position when seeking religious, textual justification for some practices, such as gender segregation or not praying in shoes. How, then, does Salafism legitimate and ground itself? How is their claim to authenticity premised on continuity with the Islamic seventh century? To answer these questions, Rock-Singer takes a few specific issues, such as gender segregation, beards, the length of the robe or pants, as potent ideological sites that are connected in significant ways to Salafism's project to regulate social space. These issues were not applied in the early 20th century or prior but became significant in the mid to late 20th century in a specific social and political context. So, for instance, the beard matters not just because it's an attempt to emulate the Prophet Muhammad but because it's a visual way of identifying the commitment to emulating Muhammad, to make clear who a Salafi is. In our discussion today, Aaron talks about the origins of this book, its major contributions and findings, the roots of Salafism, its ideas of worship and tawhid (i.e., oneness of God), Salafism's textual and political challenges, the significance of the regulation of social space, questions of authenticity and continuity, and the issues of beards, praying in shoes, gender segregation, and the length of one's robe according to Salafi practice. Shehnaz Haqqani is an Assistant Professor of Religion at Mercer University. She earned her PhD in Islamic Studies with a focus on gender from the University of Texas at Austin in 2018. Her dissertation research explored questions of change and tradition, specifically in the context of gender and sexuality, in Islam. She can be reached at haqqani_s@mercer.edu.

Foundations of the Salafi Da'wah - Lesson 2 by Albaseerah

Violent Islamic extremism is affecting a growing number of countries in sub-Saharan Africa. In some, jihadi Salafi organizations have established home bases and turned into permanent security challengers. However, other countries have managed to prevent the formation or curb the spread of homegrown jihadi Salafi organizations. In Salafism and Political Order in Africa (Cambridge UP, 2021), Sebastian Elischer provides a comparative analysis of how different West and East African states have engaged with fundamentalist Muslim groups between the 1950s and today. In doing so, he establishes a causal link between state-imposed organizational gatekeepers in the Islamic sphere and the absence of homegrown jihadi Salafism. Sebastian Elischer is an associate professor of political science at the University of Florida. His research is focused on political Islam, violent extremism, and ethnicity, and democratization in sub-Saharan Africa. He is the author of Political Parties in Africa: Ethnicity and Party Formation (Cambridge University Press, 2013) Sally Sharif is Simons Foundation Canada Post-Doctoral Fellow at the School for International Studies at Simon Fraser University.

Last month, the George Washington University Program on Extremism published a report called, “Mayhem, Murder, and Misdirection: Violent Extremist Attack Plots Against Critical Infrastructure in the United States.” To talk through that report and a recent Lawfare article on the topic, Lawfare managing editor Tyler McBrien sat down with Ilana Krill, a research fellow at the Program on Extremism, and Seamus Hughes, the program's deputy director. They discussed the white supremacists and Salafi-jihadists who make up these movements, the encrypted channels through which propaganda and plans are spread, and what's to be done to protect critical infrastructure in the United States.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.
