2025/07/24

What if the Muslim representation we’ve been fighting for is actually working against us? In this Focal Point episode, Imam Tom Facchine explores the rise of Muslim representation in media, politics, and pop culture, and why it might be more harmful than helpful. From tokenism to identity politics, we unpack how visibility without values can betray the very communities it claims to uplift. Before we celebrate inclusion, we need to ask: At what cost?

2025/05/21

A century after his birth — and 60 years after his assassination — El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz, or Malcolm X, continues to exert a powerful influence on efforts against racism and oppression from the United States to Africa. After enduring the cruelty of overt and systemic racism at a young age, Malcolm made a lifelong commitment to uplifting himself and all African-Americans. Bold and uncompromising, but also a sincere seeker of truth, he embraced Islam, performed Hajj, and traveled widely. Ma...

2025/05/15

After nearly two years since the escalation of the genocide, half the Christian population of Gaza has been killed or forced to flee by the Israeli regime. But despite Palestine being home to Christianity’s holiest sites, the Palestinian Christians being the oldest Christian community anywhere in the world, and very prominent Christian voices like the late Pope Francis calling for an end to the genocide, many Christians in the West continue to support Israel. Why? Why do Christian Zionists f...

He stood beside men who were martyred moments after smiling with him. In this conversation with Dr. Omar Suleiman, he shares what he witnessed, what the world must know, and what it truly means to love the ummah—to walk through rubble, taste the sweetness of faith, and keep returning to serve, even if it might be the last time....

Yaqeen Podcast ·

2025/05/08

Why would the Prophet ﷺ marry a child? That is the question many want answered, but before we begin to address it, we have to admit it is more than a mere question; rather, it is an accusation and judgment of character. Underneath the question lies the notion that we should be troubled by the age of ‘Aisha at marriage, that whatever her age was, it is concerning, and—worse than that—however great the Prophet ﷺ was, the age at which ‘Aisha was married to him is problematic. The controversy ove...

2025/03/29

When all else fades, only hope in Allah remains. At the moment of death, no deed will matter more than trusting in His mercy. Even the most righteous entered the Barzakh with sins—yet it was their good opinion of Allah that erased them. In that unseen world, His mercy conceals shortcomings, and His forgiveness grants peace. The gates of redemption never close to those who sincerely seek Him. So as you journey through this life, carry this truth with you: hope in Allah is not just a feeling—it...

Every soul in the Barzakh carries the weight of 'if only'. The sinner will wish they had repented. The righteous will wish they had done more. Even the martyr will long to return—not for this world, but to sacrifice themselves for Allah again. No one regrets a missed opportunity in the dunya. They only regret the deeds they didn’t do for Allah. What will you wish for when time runs out?

What happens in the heavens and the graves on Laylatul Qadr? The angels fill the skies, and destinies are written. The living pray for mercy, while the dead long for one more chance. But this night isn’t just for us—its blessings reach beyond. Your du’a can lift the souls of those who have passed, just as it can change your fate. Allahumma innaka ‘afuwwun, tuhibbul ‘afwa, fa’fu ‘anna—don’t forget to include them in the "us." NOTE: All depictions of Barzakh are purely conceptual and only vocal...

What did your Tahajjud plant for you? When the world slept, you stood in the stillness of the night, whispering to your Lord. The tears you shed in secret watered a garden unseen—one that now grows in your grave, lighting it with peace. While others fear what awaits them, you have a secret gift, waiting to be unveiled. Tahajjud is not just a prayer—it’s an invitation to nearness. And in the Barzakh, the one who stood before Allah in the night will stand closest to Him in eternity. NOTE: All d...
