He examines Saudi Arabia under Mohammed bin Salman, particularly MBS's relationship with the UAE and Mohammed bin Zayed, and the implications of this alliance for Yemen, Somaliland, and wider regional politics, including Israel. We also discuss the kidnapping involving Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela, situating it within broader questions of power, coercion, and international politics.You can find Sami Hamdi here:X: https://x.com/SALHACHIMIIG: https://www.instagram.com/salhachimiBecome a member here:https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/membershipOr give your one-off donation here:https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/donateListen to the audio version of the podcast:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7vXiAjVFnhNI3T9Gkw636aApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-thinking-muslim/id1471798762Purchase our Thinking Muslim mug: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/merchFind us on:X: https://x.com/thinking_muslimLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-thinking-muslim/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/The-Thinking-Muslim-Podcast-105790781361490Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thinkingmuslimpodcast/Telegram: https://t.me/thinkingmuslimBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/thinkingmuslim.bsky.socialThreads: https://www.threads.com/@thinkingmuslimpodcastFind Muhammad Jalal here:X: https://twitter.com/jalalaynInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jalalayns/Sign up to Muhammad Jalal's newsletter: https://jalalayn.substack.comWebsite Archive: https://www.thinkingmuslim.comDisclaimer:The views expressed in this video are those of the individual speaker(s) and do not represent the views of the host, producers, platform, or any affiliated organisation.

We're thrilled to welcome Sami Hamdi back on The Safi Bros Podcast! In this follow-up conversation, we reconnect with a close friend of the show for an extended talk about faith, leadership, and standing firm in today's world. A huge thanks to Sami for such an amazing discussion. Don't forget to follow him on all of his socials.For the video podcast, find us on:

Since the terror attack on Bondi Beach on Sunday, many prominent people including former Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott are pointing the finger at Western governments which rushed to recognise a Palestinian state and supposedly tolerated extremism at anti-Israel protests. Others have argued that, by the very same logic, the Israeli government is culpable for the mass suffering it has inflicted on Gaza. Attention is turning, again, to immigration policies and whether multiculture - and Muslim culture - can ever work in the West. Piers Morgan uncovers the tensions that only seem to be getting stronger, first speaking to Israel's deputy foreign minister Sharren Haskel about the attack in Sydney, asking her how safe she thinks Jewish people are worldwide following the events that have unfolded since October 7. Uncensored then welcomes New York post columnist Miranda Devine, retired lieutenant colonel and IDF spokesman Jonathan Conricus, journalist and commentator Sami Hamdi, British-Palestinian Novara commentator Kieran Andrieu and Australian commentator Samara Gill. Plus, he speaks to Miss Palestine, Nadeen Ayoub, who he asks about her marriage to the son of Hamas' most-wanted terrorist prisoner.

Sami Hamdi Interview by Radio Islam

How did a leaked, Israel-commissioned poll end up calling Israel a “genocidal, apartheid country” in the eyes of the world? Why are billion-dollar media empires, Big Tech cloud contracts, and paid influencer networks all converging to sell you one story on Gaza? Who really pushed for the detention of Sami Hamdi—and what does that tell us about the future of dissent and citizenship in the West? In his latest Focal Point, Imam Tom maps the money, the media, and the smear machine—and what it means for your rights moving forward.

   In today's episode, on a still winter morning, a tiny frozen puddle becomes the beginning of a quiet moment of awareness I reflect on the beauty of our senses, how easily we overlook small everyday moments, and why career prestige doesn't always bring true fulfillment.  Later, inspired by a powerful message from journalist Sami Hamdi, I muse about his idea of intention, sincerity, and the role each of us can play in addressing both local and global inequities. In a world connected through social media, our individual choices matter more than ever. This episode is a gentle reminder for me and you to slow down, notice what's around us, and consider how small actions and mindful awareness can contribute to a more compassionate, responsible way of living, choosing intention over indifference. Love and Peace Always, Amber xoxo   P.S. If you'd like to support the podcast, please click here Thank you for your support!

America First, free speech and the pro-Israel lobby: has the tide finally turned against Israel in the West? Why has Sami taken a conciliatory approach with the Trump administration? Does he regret opposing the Democrats and Kamala Harris in 2024? Thoughts on Donald Trump and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman's recent press briefing in the Oval Office. Saudi Arabia and the UAE's cold war, Sudan and the RSF, and Türkiye and Erdogan's plans for Gaza. Hope for Islamic revival and a reminder to the Muslim ummah.

Emad Saadeh is an author, lecturer and a counselor for victims of violent crimes. A story of a Palestinian boy who was born in Jerusalem and lived there under Israeli occupation for the first 12 years of his life. His father migrates to the USA in 1973 to escape constantly being arrested and being jailed by the Israelis. The young boy and his siblings are finally reunited in 1978. The sweetness of that reunion is short lived because of his father's physical and mental abuse which drives him to flee his home for the streets of Chicago where he is introduced to the world of Chicago street gangs. He finds himself being arrested many times for his gang activities until he is eventually sentenced to state prison in 1985. In 1987 he is released so he attempts to lead a clean law abiding life but the lucrative drug trade sucks him in and is eventually arrested by the DEA, than after a jury trial he is sentenced to 160 month in federal prison. He is released after almost serving 13 years and finds a changed Chicago with a very disunited family and not much love for each other.

In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan exposes how America's shutdown is revealing shocking welfare data, investigates a Socialist-Islamist power alliance in New York City, breaks down the arrest of a radical British speaker, and answers listener questions about his years inside the CIA. Union Revolt and Welfare Shock: The largest federal workers' union — normally a Democrat ally — is now demanding an end to the shutdown, while new data reveals that most U.S. food stamp recipients live in foreign-born households. Bryan explains how this exposes a broken immigration system and a growing dependency crisis, citing research showing that long-term aid actually keeps people poorer. Socialist and Islamist Alliance in New York: Socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani leads New York's mayoral race with heavy backing from radical leftist and Muslim groups, including CAIR and Students for Justice in Palestine. Bryan unpacks the money, ideology, and political networks behind Mamdani's rise — and warns what his victory could mean for America's largest city. Trump Deports Radical British Preacher: Federal agents detained British Islamist Sami Hamdi, who was touring the U.S. with CAIR to rally Muslim and leftist activists. Citing post-9/11 counterterror policy, Bryan explains why Trump's DHS acted swiftly to revoke his visa and how Western leaders are finally confronting political Islam's infiltration strategy. Fearlessness and a CIA Life: Bryan closes with a reflection on courage, truth, and the lessons he learned as a CIA officer — from recruitment and fieldwork to his most memorable operation abroad. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: U.S. government shutdown welfare data, food stamps foreign-born households, CIS immigrant welfare use, Zohran Mamdani socialist Islamist ties, CAIR Students for Justice in Palestine, Sami Hamdi deportation DHS, political Islam infiltration strategy, Bryan Dean Wright CIA recruitment stories

Visit us at Network2020.org. Sudan's war—between the army and the Rapid Support Forces, sparked in April 2023—has entered a deadlier phase. Recent attacks on the Abu Shouk camp near El-Fasher, a widening cholera outbreak, and aid blockages that leave much of the country in need have pushed the crisis to a breaking point. We're re-running this episode to explain how a promised transition to civilian rule unraveled into open war, how Darfur's past atrocities and broader questions of accountability continue to shape today's violence, and how outside powers have amplified the fight. These headlines aren't the focus of the original conversation—but they make its analysis newly urgent.Hosted by Network 20/20, in conversation Mr. Sami Hamdi, an expert on the MENA region and the Managing Director of the International Interest, a global risk and intelligence company.Music by StudioKolomna from Pixabay.

Innā lillāhi wa innā ilayhi rājiʿūn"Indeed, to Allah we belong, and to Him we shall return.” It is with great sadness that Muhammad Jalal's wife passed away on Wednesday. She had been courageously living with cancer for over three years. She was a soul who remained obedient to her Lord to the very end and never wavered in her iman and goodness. May Allah open the doors of mercy for her and leave her good deeds and service to the ummah as sadaqah jariah for her.يٰۤاَيَّتُهَا النَّفۡسُ الۡمُطۡمَٮِٕنَّةُارۡجِعِىۡۤ اِلٰى رَبِّكِ رَاضِيَةً مَّرۡضِيَّةً ‏Allah will say to the righteous,˺ “O tranquil soul!,Return to your Lord, well pleased ˹with Him˺ and well pleasing ˹to Him˺. The Prophet (saw) said:“The most beloved people to Allah are those who are most beneficial to others.”Farhat lived this truth. May every act of kindness and dedication to our ummah she performed count as sadaqah jāriyah for her. We ask Allah (SWT) to envelop her in mercy, to forgive her sins, to make her grave a garden from the gardens of Paradise, and to reunite her with her loved ones in Jannat al-Firdaws, the highest level of Paradise. "Allahumma ighfir laha, warhamha, wa 'afiha, wa'fu 'anha.""O Allah, forgive her, have mercy on her, grant her peace, and pardon her." May her soul find rest, and may we all find strength in the legacy she left behind.Listen to the audio version of the podcast:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7vXiAjVFnhNI3T9Gkw636aApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-thinking-muslim/id1471798762Sign up to Muhammad Jalal's newsletter: https://jalalayn.substack.comPurchase our Thinking Muslim mug: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/merchHelp us expand our Muslim media project here: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/membershipYou can also support The Thinking Muslim through a one-time donation: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/DonateFind us on:Twitter: https://twitter.com/thinking_muslimFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/The-Thinking-Muslim-Podcast-105790781361490Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thinkingmuslimpodcast/Telegram: https://t.me/thinkingmuslimBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/thinkingmuslim.bsky.socialHost: https://twitter.com/jalalaynHost IG: https://www.instagram.com/jalalayns/Website Archive: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com Hosted on Acast.

Sami Hamdi first came on The Thinking Muslim two years ago on the 28 April 2023. To mark the two years we have brought together some of his choice moments that remind us of our need to fuse faith with thinking and activism.We all know how difficult it has been for food and essential supplies to reach the beleaguered people of Gaza. This, Insha'Allah, is changing. We have partnered with a charity, Baitulmaal, because now, more than ever, there is a need not only in Gaza but also in Turkish controlled Northern Syria and in all the places we routinely talk about in this program where our ummah is subject to abject poverty. We have chosen this charity because Baitulmaal is a non-profit with people on the ground who organize well-thought-out projects and serve the most needy.You can also support The Thinking Muslim through a one-time donation: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/DonateListen to the audio version of the podcast:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7vXiAjVFnhNI3T9Gkw636aApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-thinking-muslim/id1471798762Sign up to Muhammad Jalal's newsletter: https://jalalayn.substack.comPurchase our Thinking Muslim mug: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/merchFind us on:Twitter: https://twitter.com/thinking_muslimFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/The-Thinking-Muslim-Podcast-105790781361490Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thinkingmuslimpodcast/Telegram: https://t.me/thinkingmuslimBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/thinkingmuslim.bsky.socialHost: https://twitter.com/jalalaynHost IG: https://www.instagram.com/jalalayns/Website Archive: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com Hosted on Acast.

Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman and normalisation with Israel.  Turkiye, Qatar, Egypt, Jordan, the UAE and the betrayal of Gaza.

The Seerah (biography) of the Prophet Muhammad (saw) is a key reading for all Muslims. However, many view it through a lens that misses its essence. Sami Hamdi explains how we need to rethink how we view Seerah so that we can internalise it in our lives.Also, for the past 16 months, we all know how difficult it has been for food and essential supplies to reach the beleaguered people of Gaza. This, Insha'Allah, is changing. We have partnered with a charity, Baitulmaal, because now, more than ever, there is a need not only in Gaza but also in Turkish controlled Northern Syria and in all the places we routinely talk about in this program where our ummah is subject to abject poverty.

Donate to the critical aid campaign at http://btml.us/thinkingmuslimThe struggle for Gaza is not over. For over fifteen months, Israel's Western backers told us that there was no genocide taking place. Now, President Trump confirms that the Israelis have turned it into rubble. His plan, ludicrous as it sounds, is to displace Gaza's population to surrounding countries and colonize it for America, and presumably Israel. This plan has been roundly rejected by Palestinian voices and regional governments, including, with some gusto, the Saudis. At the time of recording, the ceasefire is in flux, as Hamas points out Israel's lack of commitment. Trump declares that there will be hell to pay if Israel does not commit to releasing the so-called hostages. Are we about to see Gaza—and maybe even the region—go up in flames once again?In these confusing times, we once again have political analyst Sami Hamdi back on the show.

In this second session of our 2024 roundup we have Sami Hamdi back on the show to discuss Syria in more detail. Syria is in many ways a ray of hope but also raises all sorts of uncertainties. What path will the revolution take? How do we assess Jolani and the rebel movement? What of the demands of regional and global actors, ideological and otherwise. And how does Syria navigate the US and Israel's anxieties about the new government and its Islamic colour.Let me remind all viewers that to help us continue to engage critical thought at this time, Please consider becoming a Patron. https://www.patreon.com/TheThinkingMuslimYou can also support The Thinking Muslim through a one-time donation: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/DonateListen to the audio version of the podcast:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7vXiAjVFnhNI3T9Gkw636aApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-thinking-muslim/id1471798762Sign up to Muhammad Jalal's newsletter: https://jalalayn.substack.comPurchase our Thinking Muslim mug: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/merchFind us on:Patron. https://www.patreon.com/TheThinkingMuslimTwitter: https://twitter.com/thinking_muslimFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/The-Thinking-Muslim-Podcast-105790781361490Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thinkingmuslimpodcast/Telegram: https://t.me/thinkingmuslimBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/thinkingmuslim.bsky.socialHost: https://twitter.com/jalalaynWebsite Archive: https://www.thinkingmuslim.comTimestamps0:00 – Introduction 1:34 – Ahmed Al Sharaa 11:23 – Implement Sharia?21:52 – Jeremy Bowen Interview32:47 – Role of Türkiye43:45 – Türkiye NATO member 53:41 – Trump Presidency1:01:48 – Taliban and West1:12:31 – Forgiving?

This year we have seen two Muslim countries move away from bitter dictatorships, Bangladesh and Syria. Yet the horrific scenes in Gaza remain. Any joy that comes from Syria is always muted as we endure the horrific genocide perpetrated by the west and its colonial enterprise. Gaza exposes the hollowness of an international order.The civil war in Sudan remains active, Pakistan's generals have consolidated power, and the Egyptian pharaoh seems comfortable aiding Israel in its blood-shedding and the Saudis are looking forward to selling Palestine for a US security deal.We have the pleasure of inviting Sami Hamdi back on the show to look at the year gone and the year ahead.

We thought the revolution had ended, and the millions of Syrians dispersed around the world were never to see their homeland again. This all spectacularly changed this past week, where, to everyone's surprise, the opposition was able, for the first time, to take over Aleppo and are now fighting to expand their territory. Many questions remain, and a deliberate propaganda campaign waged by Iran and Russia with the help of their social media proxies has confused many who had not followed the events.They hope to throw out false news to make us believe its all too confusing.

Full Episode 10-7-24 - In this episode, Amanda tells us a very nuanced tale of cops, grants, and identity politics. We reflect on October 7th and, whether it would be a good thing or a bad thing to reward politicians for committing genocide. Hmmm.... I'm stumped! Check out Part 2 of The Thinking Muslim's interview with Sami Hamdi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQUK_wgNJhQ

Both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have clearly stated their intentions to back Israel, and it is hard sometimes to place a cigarette paper between them.So how should American Muslims respond to the genocide. Should they abandon Harris? I am planning to visit the US very soon inshallah and will be meeting with American Muslim leaders and others as I attempt to piece together an answer to these crucial questions. But to begin the conversation, I have invited back onto the show Sami Hamdi to share his thoughts.You can support The Thinking Muslim through a one-time or a monthly donation: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/DonateSign up to Muhammad Jalal's newsletter: https://jalalayn.substack.comPurchase our Thinking Muslim mug: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/merch Find us on:Twitter: https://twitter.com/thinking_muslimFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/The-Thinking-Muslim-Podcast-105790781361490Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thinkingmuslimpodcast/Telegram: https://t.me/thinkingmuslim Host: https://twitter.com/jalalaynWebsite Archive: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com0:00 – Introduction03:00 Is there a Harris bounce in the polls 07:06 If Harris loses, Zionism loses? 13:34 Why is AIPAC worried? 20:00 Shifting US public opinion26:58 Muslims in swing states 30:01 Supporting Trump 38:19 Third-party candidates 48:21 Should we endorse Jill Stein57:39 The lesser of the two evils 1:18:00 Are US Muslims ready for sacrifice 1:39:40 Non-Muslim allies Hosted on Acast.

The brutality with which the Israelis now act with impunity is clear for the majority of the world to see, but the West remains immune to its crimes. That's partly because the West does not and cannot see Israel as anything but a benevolent project in a region that requires a Western presence. A colony. An imperial parasite whose crimes are erased by those funding its campaign of annihilation. Israel is not, as the conventional wisdom suggests, out of control. It is a project of the West. The West is Israel and Israel is the West. The two are symbiotically linked. Their destiny is one. This past week, we have seen the latest escalation, the systematic use of communications pagers and walk-in talkies to kill and maim indiscriminately across Lebanon and parts of Syria. The response in much of the Western press has been to praise the action as creative and daring. But what lay behind this escalation, what is Israel's game plan, and where do the Muslim rulers now sit, almost a year after this act of mass murder?
