When most people hear the word philanthropy, they think of wealthy donors, historic foundations, or big names from the early 20th century. But in this episode, we explore a much deeper and more meaningful understanding of philanthropy through an Islamic lens. Drawing from the teachings of scholars like Peyton and Moody as well as Dr. Shariq Siddiqui, we uncover how Islam expands the concept of giving to include intention, mindset, and a constant state of wanting to do good.

In this thoughtful episode, we break down how Muslim philanthropy is rooted in baraka, sincerity, and a worldview where even the intention to do good is rewarded. From the Quranic framing of philanthropy to the role of volunteerism, wealth, and service, this conversation offers a powerful reminder that giving is not just an action but a transformational way of life. Tune in to understand how philanthropy can elevate your purpose, deepen your faith, and strengthen your relationship with Allah.
