Killing innocents: The onslaught on Gaza continues with over 30,000 dead and it's not just Palestinians but aid workers who are getting targeted. However, Israel claims the killing of innocent people is ‘unintentional’ and ‘happens in war time’. However, some of the videos of these hits on social media would have us questioning if it really is unintentional. Furthermore, what measures should be taken to protect innocent people and civilians when in war?  Dajjal: Dajjal is the great deceiver, a sign of the latter days, and the advent of the Promised  Messiah and Mahdi. But, is Dajjal a one- eyed creature, that the Messiah will come  to kill literally? Who is the Dajjal of our age, and how can we be protected from it? Join us as we discuss the truth about Dajjal in Islam, and preventative measures we can all take.

Repeat of an Interactive show recorded on 25th February 2024. Synopsis: In this week’s episode of Pathway to Peace, we examine a topic that resonates deeply with the essence of Islam - Random Acts of Kindness. In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it's easy to overlook the transformative power of a smile, a helping hand, or a kind word. However, Islam postively promotes the notion that these seemingly small acts can have a monumental impact on the lives of others, reflecting the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) who exemplified mercy and kindness in all his interactions. Throughout this episode, we will explore the Islamic perspective on random acts of kindness, drawing inspiration from the Quran and Ahadith. We will share heartwarming stories that highlight the beauty of kindness, discuss practical ways to incorporate it into our lives, and reflect on how these acts can serve as a powerful tool for spreading love and unity within society.

We’ll mention how in many cases, law itself evolves from religion and morality. Through doing so we’ll seek to combat the critiques of those who describe religious doctrine as outdated and instead prove that the Holy Qur’an is a scripture for all times.

Episode 32. The Theme for this show is ‘World Crisis and the Pathway to Peace’. We shall be looking at teachings which provide the practical means of establishing peace by delving into the 9 fundamentals to establish everlasting peace that have been shared by the fifth califh of the head of the worldwide Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in his book titled ‘World Crisis and Pathway to Peace’ which is a compilation of the speeches that he had delivered to world leaders. The first poem is a translation of a persian poem by the great poet Hafez Shirazi of the 14th century whose collected works are regarded by many Iranians as a pinnacle of Persian literature. His poem is about the recognition of the creator and titled ‘Footprints’ and is read very eloquently by brother Mobashar Khan from Aldershot in the UK. The second poem is titled ‘Pathway to Peace’ and is from the very talented poet sister Rizwana Aziz from Southwest London, and brings focus to a very important point in establishing peace which is the need to have Absolute Justice. The third poem is from the very wise intellectual words of sister Bushra Khan, a Physician from East Sussex, UK, with her poem titled: Global Family, and focuses on another vital ingredient in establishing global peace, and that is the need to have global unity among nations. Our fourth poem focuses on another aspect needed to attain global peace, and that is the need to reject extremism. and from sister Ruttab Noor from Canada with her beautiful poem titled: Pray for the World. Another vital component in establishing peace is the need for equality, including economic equity, and the next poem was written by one of America’s most notable contemporary poets, Maya Angelou, who captures an essence of inequality in a unique and profound manner. The poem is titled, ‘I know why the caged bird sings’, and is delightfully read by young sister Adan from Washington, USA. Eradicating poverty is also vital in establishing peace, and the next poem paints the grim reality which many children are faced with across the world. It is written by Francis Duggan and titled Poor Children, and superbly read by young brother Yusuf Ahmad. Another component of establishing peace is the need for nuclear disarmament and the elimination of weapon profiteering. The final poem highlights encapsulates the dire consequences of a nuclear bomb. This poem was written by Robert Ilson, titled ‘Going Splat’ and is being wonderfully read by young sister Miss Aroosa Akram from Slough UK.

Episode 30.The Theme for this show is ‘Her Majesty the Queen’. On the 8th of September 2022, Queen Elizabeth 2nd died in the United Kingdom, at the age of 96. She had reigned for 70 years and had thus become the longest reigning British monarch in history. Upon her passing, she was succeeded by her eldest child, now known as King Charles III. The country and the world paid countless tributes to this noble Queen in almost every way, and we shall now hear a few poetical tributes which I hope will give you a small essence of the great monarch that she was. The first poem is from the Poet Laureate Simon Armitage, who had written this to mark the Queens death. It has two verses, or stanzas and nine lines, and the first letter of each line when taken together spells out Elizabeth. It is read very eloquently by brother Munir Rafiq and is titled ‘Floral Tribute’. The second poem is from Sir Ian Duncan Smith, Member of Parliament in England, who read a tribute to her late Majesty the Queen in the House of Commons on the 9th of September 2022 where he also quotes some poetical verses. The third poem was written by the poet Joanne Boyle following the sad passing of Queen Elizabeth II which seems to encapsulate the feelings of the nation and is being read by the talented sister Faiza Mirza. We then hear the National anthem which was sung on the 12th of September 2022, after King Charles III gave a historic address to MP’s in parliament for the first time where he paid tribute to the Queen The next poem has some ancient background and is actually about Queen Elizabeth the first, so it’s almost 500 years old, and is believed to have been written by William Shakespeare. Apparently he wrote this poem at the back of an envelope and this was probably composed as an epilogue for a performance of a play in the presence of the queen. The poem is titled: “To the Queen" and is being read by brother Salim Ullah. Our final piece for this show, is a special prayer for an equally special Queen. A prayer which epitomises the love that one person has for the whole of mankind and one that is extended to even the Queen. In 1897, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, who claimed to be The Promised Messiah (peace be upon him), wrote the book Tohfa-e-Qaisariyyah, which translates ‘ A Gift for the Queen’, which he wrote on the occasion of the Diamond Jubilee of Her Majesty Queen Victoria. We shall hear the English version of a portion of this beautiful prayer within this book which was recited in six languages.

Furthermore, what measures should be taken to protect innocent people and civilians when in war?  Dajjal: Dajjal is the great deceiver, a sign of the latter days, and the advent of the Promised  Messiah and Mahdi.

Episode 132 - Islam and the News Media. Islam’s portrayal in Western news media has not exactly been positive. Over the years, we’ve seen many outreach and community cohesion projects by our Ahmadiyya Muslim Community around the world, delivering the true message of Islam. Yet, the negative coverage continues. Today, we will discuss how Islam is portrayed in the news, the possible reasons why it is portrayed in such ways, how, for all its claims of objectivity and reliability, even the most trusted news corporations get away with such a distorted and baseless portrayal, and the impact this has on ordinary Muslims in Britain and around the world.

A chance to listen to a repeat of a topical discussion programme recorded on 26th April 2024. Killing innocents: The onslaught on Gaza continues with over 30,000 dead and it's not just Palestinians but aid workers who are getting targeted. However, Israel claims the killing of innocent people is ‘unintentional’ and ‘happens in war time’. However, some of the videos of these hits on social media would have us questioning if it really is unintentional. Furthermore, what measures should be taken to protect innocent people and civilians when in war?  Dajjal: Dajjal is the great deceiver, a sign of the latter days, and the advent of the Promised  Messiah and Mahdi. But, is Dajjal a one- eyed creature, that the Messiah will come  to kill literally? Who is the Dajjal of our age, and how can we be protected from it? Join us as we discuss the truth about Dajjal in Islam, and preventative measures we can all take.

Episode 27. Victim Mindset. “I am miserable, therefore; I am” is the victim mindset of assuming no control and responsibility over one’s life while hurting the people offering support. This passive-aggressive behaviour is increasingly causing resistance to the progression of a peaceful society and tipping the scales favouring the burden of problems and decreasing solutions or, rather, the willingness to reach one. In this episode of sisters on Air, we aim to study the different presentations of the victim mindset and evaluate its detrimental impacts on the population. We will also answer the question of how women, living in this modern world in search of equality, can overcome beliefs of feeling victimised.
