Description
Authentic knowledge from authentic sources.
In an age when anyone can record a video and call themselves a scholar, Islam has never been carried that way. It moves from teacher to student, across generations, back to the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace). That chain has a name: isnad.
Hosted by Shaykh Irshaad Sedick in Cape Town, this podcast is built on that principle.
ROOTED, the flagship interview series, sits with the scholars of South Africa who went to the source and came home, and asks what it cost them to get there.
Alongside it, Studio Chats brings single conversations on whatever the moment asks of us, from Qurbani to Gaza to the state of Islamic education. The Ramadan series, Unlocking Hearts, I Am Near, Tafakkur and Understanding Juz Amma, are kept complete so they can be followed from the first day.
More than 175 episodes since 2021.
