The Muslim Podcaster

On 29th April, a knife attack in Golders Green quickly became more than just an isolated incident. Labelled as terrorism and framed around antisemitism, it soon fed into a wider debate around pro-Palestinian protests and the phrase “global intifada.”

In this episode, we unpack what actually happened, how the narrative developed, and why language is now at the centre of the conversation. Are political terms being redefined? And what happens when protests start being linked to extremism?

We also discuss the role of media framing, Keir Starmer's response, and whether fear is being used to justify tighter control over public expression.

The Iran war has dominated headlines — but beyond the question of who won, what does this actually mean for the Muslim world?

In this episode of The Muslim Podcaster, I am joined by Rash and JK as we break down the outcome of the Iran conflict, the ceasefire, and the wider implications of what we’ve seen unfold.

More importantly, the discussion turns to what this reveals about the current state of the Muslim world — are Muslims simply reacting to global events, or is there a deeper issue at play?

Plenty to think about.

In this episode, I'm joined by brother Mahfuz, AKA Newsbaba, to break down the war in Iran, geopolitics in the Middle East, and what this conflict means for the US, Israel, and the wider world.

Everyone is asking who wins this war… but that’s the wrong question.

What happens if Iran is not defeated?

We explore how Iran's survival of this conflict could shift the balance of power, affect global energy routes, and reshape how the US, "Israel", and the wider world operate moving forward. From the Strait of Hormuz to regional alliances, this goes beyond surface-level analysis and looks at the deeper implications most people are missing.

This isn’t just about war… It’s about power.

In this episode, I’m joined by my co-hosts, Rash and Kam, for a discussion about the unfolding conflict among Iran, the United States and "Israel".
 
Together, we examine the key questions surrounding the war: why the attacks on Iran took place now, what strategic interests may be driving the escalation, and what the potential consequences could be for the region and the wider world.
 
We also discuss Iran’s strategic position regarding the Strait of Hormuz, the challenges the United States faces in managing the conflict, and the broader geopolitical dynamics shaping events in the Middle East.

In this episode, I’m joined by Mahfuz Talukder (NewsBaba) to discuss geopolitics and why Muslim political awareness is essential if the Ummah wants to change its situation.

We discuss what geopolitics actually is, why politics cannot be ignored, and why the Ummah cannot change its situation without understanding the global power structures shaping the world today.

Are Muslims politically aware enough? Do we understand how power operates? And can meaningful change happen without that understanding?

This is a foundational conversation.
