Description

Season 2 - Episode 4: A New Hope.  In this episode of Re-Sight Islam, Qasim and Salaam venture to a distant desert where a young man, being raised by his uncle, must battle agains the odds to fulfill his destiny.
In this episode, the team explains the differentiation of the three classes of the Arab people and the meanings of some of the more common Arabic words you hear in Islam. You will also gain an understanding of how elephants, birds with stones and deadly viruses played a role in the defense of the Kaaba.  They also point to yet another unifying aspect of the world's many faith traditions.
Qasim and Salaam will draw on their knowledge of The Force as they launch into the story of how one man's destiny was shaped by the search for water and the Zamzam Well.  If you can suffer through Salaam's misguided attempt at a Disney classic, you will discover how the value of life and the futility of human sacrifice were realized in the teachings of the Q'uran.  
Have a listen, and let's break bread together!

Welcome to Re-Sight Islam, a weekly podcast presented by The Religion News Foundation. I am your host Salaam Bhatti. In this podcast we shed light on a world that politicians, pundits and preachers ignore. Here we take a second look at Islam. A look without the taboos of asking the ‘wrong question,’ but instead a frank dialogue that opens minds and fosters understanding through stories and interviews. So, join me as we have some fun learning about what unites us as we Re-Sight Islam.
