What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Things are always explained in a way, I not only understand but with amazing storytelling that holds my attention (not to mention he’s very funny!) I always learn, and am always excited to listen. Whether on my lunch break or driving home, I know I’m going to understand Islam and the Quran more. Thank you for all you do!

His in depth tafseer commentary and understanding of the fitnas of our time is wholesome, helps us really ponder and marvel about the word of Allah.

I absolutely love the context in which the talks are given through a teachers prospective. I listen on the way to work. It starts my day off in a very fruitful way. Alhamduilah for all you do to bring Islam to the forefront, always trying to let the believers know how much Allah (swt) loves them, and to keep striving. Keep up the exceptional work. I always look forward to whatever comes next and share with my children and anyone I believe can receive the benefit as much as I I do. May Allah reward you for deeds. Inshallah!
