The aftermath of the Day of Ashura means we have a lot to reflect on, and a lot to work on. We're joined this week by Sheikh Azhar Nasser of the USA, who guides us on understanding the mission of Imam Hussain (as) through a number of lenses. We review why Karbala does not receive global media attention, how to propagate the message of the Imam, and tackling misconceptions of Karbala - like did the Shia kill Imam Hussain, was Karbala a political tug of war, and much more. Not to be missed!

Our heartfelt condolences to you all on the sorrowful tragedy of Ashura. Together, we mourn the martyrdom of Imam Hussain (as), along with his noble family and loyal companions. This week, we’re honoured to be joined by the esteemed Sheikh Jaffer H. Jaffer from Toronto, who guides us through the deeper meaning of Imam Hussain’s (as) mission. His courageous stand against Yazid son of Mua'wiyah,reshaped the trajectory of Islam and inspired generations. Together, we explore the political, spiritual, and social dimensions of Karbala, and reflect on the timeless lessons drawn from his unmatched character and unwavering resolve.

How do we introduce Imam Hussain (as) to others? Why don't more people know about such a monumental figure in human history? Have we failed as a community in bringing his message to others? This week, we're joined by Ahmed's brother, Mohamedali, and Muntazir Rai - both key figures within Who is Hussain (www.whoishussain.org). They talk to us about their learnings from transmitting the message of Karbala to the non-Muslim, how to approach the conversation and how we can improve it.
