The Spirit of Badr: Faith, Courage, and Strategy with Dr. Wajid Akhtar

Love the simple and human-centric approach taken here. Barak Allahu Feekum.

Just cant help crying listening to this....

As a non Muslim I love this channel the discussions and lessons. Ok back to it! 😁✌🏾🫶🏾

Please do an episode to shed light on the “geopolitical” situation in west Africa (Burkino Faso, Mali and Niger).

Whenever the doctor said that he talks to much, I wanted to hear even more!

May Allah Accept your works, and make it a means of acceptance and Guidance for the Ummah!

One more fantastic podcast,love it from the core of my heart.Allah bless you all

Subhanallah. This is so very needed. The importance of courage, thought leadership and forging a path forward for the Ummah. Allah azzawajal has given us individual talents n abilities. It’s about harnessing it to serve His Deen primarily.

Bhuddist here but i luv these podcasts n the islam it reveals ❤

Thank you for such a timely and super relevant topic. Salam 17th Ramadan.

Amazing podcast. insha'Allah can't wait for another episode on another battle!

Excellent podcast, like always, tabarakAllah.
inshaaAllah the ummah is waking up. No more mentally defeated. Learning, practicing and improving.
inshaaAllah khair.

Immensely insightful! Thank you for sharing!

Appreciated this discussion based upon the ease/essence of al Deen ul Islamiyah, which is sound nasi'ah ( advice) dhikr ( remembrance), and fikr (reflections). JAK
It is narrated on the authority of Thawbān (may Allāh be pleased with him) that he said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) said: “The people will soon summon one another to attack you as people when eating invite others to share their dish.” Someone asked: Will that be because of our small numbers at that time? He replied: “No, you will be numerous at that time: but you will be scum and rubbish like that carried down by a torrent, and Allāh will take fear of you from the breasts of your enemy and last enervation (wahn) into your hearts.” Someone asked: What is wahn? O Messenger of Allāh (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him). He replied: “Love of the world and dislike of death.”

Thank you for all you do ❤

Selam a leykoum Brother
Thanks so much for the constant and great quality of your debates. All in the Seerah of our Prophet (saw) should be a source of knowledge and inspiration for the Muslim community. Indeed he (saw) was the best human being and the Sahaba the best men around him (saw).

جزاک اللہ خیرا

Jazakallah for this, was amazing hearing about the seerah and the lessons learnt through this alternate format of a discussion - learnt a lot from you both alhamdulillah.

Love these in depth and intelligent discussions

Thank you for the episode. Is there a true transcript for the Thinking Muslim (not just the auto script here)? For new terminology, the transcript cannot capture most unfamiliar terms for deeper learning.

Thank you for bringing such a knowledgeable guest on the show. May Allah ﷻ bless you both. Ameen.

This is a brilliant channel if you want an analysis of what happened in the past.

By this time I'am convinced that people that speak gold are pretty conscious of their time. Reminds me of Sami hamdi.
On the other hand People who speak garbage seem to be going on and on.
Would love to hear more from this brother. Ma shaa Allah
Excellent episode.

Great, indeed

fantastic mashallah

Listening to this , one realizes how far we are away from Islam. People today that consider themselves as practicing muslims aren't even scratching the surface of the practice of Islam in reality. At a scary low, the state of the ummah is.

Great speaker mashallah! Our ummah needs to understand the sirat and its wisdoms for us

thanks for sharing

YOU NEED TO GET THIS GUY sahil adeem HE IS BLOWING UP

♥️♥️♥️♥️

Allah said, we have not created man kind and jinn kind except for worship.
Therefore, we should do what we do everyday with mindfulness that the end goal is to please Allah alone.

Unfortunately, many podcasts speak with great emotion and ignorance of the political, security, military and political reality in the Arab and Islamic world.
For the enlightenment of your viewers, I suggest hosting Dr. Sami Al-Arian to talk about the Zio**nist lobby in America and the pillars on which it depends for American support, political commentator Salman Al-Ansari to talk about how the Arab rulers view the Palestinian issue and the available solution options.
Dr. Mustafa Barghouti and the political options available for action in the Western world in support of the Palestinian cause.
These three are better away from people who speak for unrealistic goals or for political goals different from the primary goal of supporting the Palestinian cause.

Badr was not accidental battle.
Allah said in the Quran and gave 2 options to Muslims either fight with whole Quraish or that business caravan and Allah will give Muslims victory.
Muslims even did not go for war, they had 2 swords only with them.
Quraish were the ones who incited Muslims and brought them to battlefield.
Muslims did not prefer money and dunya but the Akhirah to prove that they are not after money but the pleasure of Allah!

know your enemy

Abu Bakar ra:,Umar ra: and Some of Muslims were Battle hardened.They did have battle experience but they were few in numbers.They were out numbered by Kuffar like 10 to 1.

The Prophet ﷺ was not illiterate, he was unlettered. Please exercise more caution!

عن عمر بن الخطاب أنه سمع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول: «لأُخْرِجَنَّ اليهودَ والنصارى مِن جَزِيرة العرب حتى لا أدَعَ إلا مُسلما».
[صحيح] - [رواه مسلم
On the authority of Omar ibn al-Khattab that he heard the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, saying: “I will expel the Jews and Christians from the Arabian Peninsula until I will not leave anyone but a Muslim . ”
[ Sahih ] - [ Narrated by Muslim ]
هُوَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَ رَسُولَهُ بِالْهُدَىٰ وَدِينِ الْحَقِّ لِيُظْهِرَهُ عَلَى الدِّينِ كُلِّهِ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ
It is He who has sent His Messenger with guidance and the religion of truth. He establishes the truth to make it prevail over all religion, even if the polytheists dislike it
Surah tawbha Aya 33

The Takeaway of Battle of Badr
Reality VS Traditional rituals
Blessed is the brain that understands the views and circumstantial requirements than asking same thing again and again like “Muslim Super Intelligent scholars”.
Scroll up 1:02:30. In many ways this particular speaker is correctly said the fact.
Its almost impossible to understand the Islam for non Muslims, Not because of Islam itself, But the selfishness/arrogance of Islamic Scholars. Just look at the content/thinking of traditional Islamic scholars today.
Wonder what non-Muslims may think about Islam!
