EP 5/P1: The Faith-Fitrah Dissonance, a conversation with Wid Kattan
Part 1: In this conversation, we explore the complex topic of spiritual wounds in women, particularly within the context of Islamic psychology. We discuss the concept of spiritual lacerations, the dissonance between faith and personal experience, and the impact of cultural narratives on women's mental health. The dialogue emphasizes the importance of questioning traditional interpretations of religious texts and the need for women's voices to be heard in discussions about faith. Through case studies and personal anecdotes, we highlight the challenges women face in reconciling their spiritual identities with societal expectations and the significance of attachment styles in shaping one's...

What is Knowledge?
In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful and Compassionate What is knowledge? What distinguishes sacred knowledge? What is metafiqh? Epistemology is a branch of philosophy that deals with the theory of knowledge. Unique and brilliant in its approach, Islamic tradition has its own epistemology. Devoid of academic doublespeak and highly succinct, these lessons offer a guide to this critical topic accessible to laymen and experts alike.

﷽ The “Tree of Taqwā” was birthed from the pollen of a beautiful flower, taken from another lofty tree. The Tree of Tawhīd. أَصْلُهَا ثَابِتٌ وَفَرْعُهَا فِي السَّمَاءِ Do you not see how God sets forth parables? A good word is like a good tree whose root is firm and whose branches tower high in the sky. (Ibrahīm 14:24) Listen in to Shaykha Iman Badawi's personal 'Eid message.

S1 Ep8b Pedagogy
Elevation in scholarly level is in —not just knowing – but having the ability to employ the usuli methodology of classical scholarship. Knowledge is not a textbook, it’s a skill. We often speak of the critical importance of utilizing knowledge for devotional practice. This is only the first cycle, though. Scholars have completed this round and been raised to the next, which is scholarly practice that leads to new knowledge.

S1 Ep8a Pedagogy
When colonial powers entered Muslim lands, pedagogy was harnessed as a weapon. In erasure of the intellectual pillars of Islamic civilization, the laymen’s assuming of scholarly authority and the scholar’s assuming of the laymen’s taqlid are no worse than each other. In the dizziness of reversed realities, only full-faceted Tradition can set the Umma back on track. Where is our independent, Islamic academia?

Eid 1443 : Who was Sayyida Nafisa?
﷽ Illumined by the prophetic soul and nurtured by prophetic knowledge, our Lady Nafisa is a culmination of the excellence of prophetic inheritance, in lineage and scholarship. Until today, the minaret of her magnificence calls to us, her legacy leads us, and her spirit solaces us. If her virtues were to be distributed upon the women of the world, they would render them all saints. May Allah's pleasure and peace be upon her.
