Authentic Knowledge from Authentic Sources - Through our panel-discussions, the Isnad Academy seeks to bring the views of experts on important, current-affairs to the attention of our listeners. In the 'Information-Age', access to information has never been easier, but access to misinformation is equally easy. In Islam, the 'isnad' or chain of transmission is the mechanism by which authentic knowledge could be sifted from inauthentic material. This system is what allowed Islam to maintain a high level of preservation, even centuries later. The Isnad Academy seeks to bring the classical orthodox teachings of Islam to a contemporary audience and context.

In this gripping and urgent conversation, M. Irshaad Sedick sits down with analyst and political commentator Sami Hamdi for an unflinching look at the Gaza genocide, global power games, and the silence of Muslim leaders. This isn’t about headlines, it’s about what’s happening behind closed doors, and what we, as the Umma, must do about it.

From Iran and Trump’s foreign policy to the betrayal of Palestine by those sworn to defend it, Sami exposes hard truths with clarity and conviction. He explains why the ICJ case matters, how South Africa stood tall when others remained seated, and what real action, not just emotion, looks like.

This is not just a video. It’s a wake-up call. If you believe in justice, if you believe in dignity, if you believe in the power of the people, watch this. Share it. And be part of the Umma in motion.

In this heartfelt and inspiring episode, we sit down with Mawlana Sedick Bailey, a 78-year-old scholar and the oldest graduate of the late Mawlana Taha Karaan (may Allah have mercy on him). Mawlana Bailey shares his remarkable journey of seeking knowledge across decades, reflecting on what it means to be a lifelong learner in service of faith and community.

We discuss:

• His early days of study and what drew him to sacred knowledge

• The impact and legacy of his teacher, Mln Taha Karaan

• How he continues to learn and grow even in his late seventies

• The role of humility, patience, and purpose in the pursuit of ‘ilm

Whether you’re a young student or a seasoned teacher, Mawlana Bailey’s story is a powerful reminder: it is never too late to learn, and the path of knowledge is lifelong.

In this powerful episode of the Isnad Academy Podcast, host M. Irshaad Sedick sits down with M. Muhammad Carr to explore a profound lesson from the Night Journey (Isrā’ and Mi‘rāj)—the dire warning against riba (usury/interest).

🔹 How does riba impact our spirituality, economy, and society?

🔹 Why is riba considered worse than drinking alcohol in the Quran?

🔹 What practical steps can we take to transition to Sharia-compliant alternatives?

Through insightful discussion, our speakers unpack the Quranic prohibition of interest and its consequences, drawing lessons that remain relevant today.

🕌 Islam is holistic—it does not separate spirituality from finance. If we seek to strengthen our connection with Allah (Most High), we must also ensure that our financial transactions align with His divine guidance.

In this podcast episode, we chat with Jamaaludeen Khan for some practical coaching guidelines for kicking off 2023 on a positive note.

Quote from Shaykh Nuh Ha Mim Keller: "When she has her first baby, she must manage for another life even more dependent on her personal sacrifices. By the second, third, or fourth child, her days and nights belong almost entirely to others. Whether she has a spiritual path or not, such a mother can seldom resist a glance at the past, when there were more prayers, more meanings, more spiritual company, and more serenity. When Allah opens her understanding, she will see that she is engaged in one of the highest forms of worship, that of producing new believers who love and worship Allah. She is effectively worshipping Allah for as many lifetimes she has children, for the reward of every spiritual work her children do will be hers, without this diminishing anything of their own rewards: every ablution, every prayer, every Ramadan, every hajj, and even the works her children will in turn pass on to their offspring, and, so on till the end of time. Even if her children do not turn out as she wishes, she shall be requited in paradise forever according to her intention in raising them, which was that they should be godly. Aside from the tremendous reward, within the path itself it is noticeable that many of those who benefit most from khalwa or 'solitary retreat of dhikr' are women who have raised children. With only a little daily dhikr and worship over the years, but much toil and sacrifice for others, they surpass many a younger person who has had more free time, effort, and 'spiritual works.' What they find is greater because their state with Allah is greater; namely, the awe, hope, and love of the Divine they have realized by years of sincerity to Him."


- Shaykh Nuh Ha Mim Keller

A panel discussion on the life and impact of the monumental scholar and our teacher, Mufti, Mln Taha Karaan RA (1969 - 2021). Ml Taha Karaan was a Shafi’i scholar born in Cape Town, South Africa to a family renowned in both its maternal and paternal lineage for Islamic scholarship.

Ml Taha is the founder of Darul Ulum al-Arabiyyah al-Islamiyyah as well as the mufti of the MJC. He is an internationally acclaimed scholar that has mastered a number of sciences.

His students have described him as divinely-gifted with encyclopedic knowledge; possessed of a near-photographic memory; an insatiable bibliophile within the Islamic sciences and without; a teacher that never ceases to inspire; endowed with an elegant calligraphic hand and a penchant for poetry; thoroughly unassuming, pleasant, brilliant and tender-hearted.

His loss has been sorely felt throughout the world and tributes have flowed in from all over the world.

May Allah bless him with the highest station in Paradise and continue his legacy in this world.
