*Jumah Nights 🔭 Head To Head - Yusuf Okera & Haiderali Okera | EP 50*: The Development of Azadari & The Shi'a Youth In this engaging and light-hearted yet impactful conversation, we dive into topics that resonate deeply with the younger generation. From the power of language—bridging Urdu and English in our rituals—to the artistry in eulogy composition and the complexities of poetry, we examine how these elements continue to shape Azadari in a multicultural world.
