  • The Pursuit of Happiness: Between Secular Success and Spiritual Fulfillment
    Jan 2 2025

    What does it really mean to be happy? In this episode, we explore the modern obsession with self-help, productivity, and personal achievement—ideas rooted in secular individualism and shaped by centuries of cultural and historical change.

    We’ll examine the rise of the self-help industry, the economic forces behind the "happiness economy," and the limits of a success-driven life. Then, we’ll turn to Islam’s timeless perspective on fulfillment, offering a deeper, spiritual alternative that connects our worldly pursuits to eternal purpose.

    Tune in for an insightful journey into the true meaning of happiness and the balance between material success and spiritual peace.

  • Living in the Lens: How Photos and Filters Are Rewriting Reality
    Oct 27 2024

    In this episode, we journey back to when photos were rare and meaningful snapshots of life. Back then, images captured moments already passed—a birthday, a family gathering—and reflected reality rather than replacing it. Fast-forward to today, where 1.4 trillion photos are taken each year, and the image has, in many ways, become more significant than the event itself. From social media’s carefully curated feeds to filters that blur reality, we now live through our lenses, shaping our lives for the camera. But as we enhance and stage our lives, we face an essential question: How does this impact our connection to genuine experiences? Join us as we explore the evolution of photography and its profound effect on our behavior, self-image, and perception of reality in the digital age.
