Thinking Muslim & Ansari Podcast COLLAB! Muhammad Jalal, host of the The Thinking Muslim, visits from across the pond to break the stereotypes that American Muslims have about their British counterparts. Mohammad Jalal opens up about the origin story of The Thinking Muslim, the death of his beloved son, the most impactful guests on the thinking muslim. And both analyze american and european muslim strategy for living and politics. Who was right? The repression of french muslims, the global muslim strategy. The civilizational spark needed to bring back the muslim ummah. And the great potential for Muslim power.
