The Power of Words: Sami Hamdi on Stage

Help us expand our Muslim media project here: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/member... Donate to our charity partner Baitulmaal here: http://btml.us/thinkingmuslim Welcome to our very first LIVE show on The Thinking Muslim, featuring Sami Hamdi. In this special session, we explore some of the most pressing intellectual and spiritual questions facing the Muslim Ummah today. From reflecting on why Fatih continues to hold such deep significance to the Ummah, to examining the power of words in shaping narratives, we dive into how language can uplift, influence, and even be weaponised. We also discuss how we can make our words more impactful, analyse the ongoing battle between truth and propaganda, and reflect on the importance of trusting in Allah’s (SWT) timing when it comes to victory. The session concludes with a live audience Q&A, addressing key questions from the community.
