158 – Language: our primary source of communication. But it’s also more than that; it signifies where we’re from, it is used to influence and persuade, it is turned into the most moving of poetry. Why does language have such a profound effect on us? Why is it that a British person flinches at the use of the word “pants” instead of “trousers”? What does it mean if immigrants are described as “floods” and “swarms” in the media? We explore all this and more—looking specifically at how the language used to represent Islam, whether in the media or classic literature, has affected perceptions of Muslims.

Episode 39. Hijab: A Mode of WorshipAlong with all of Islam's teachings towards men and women, the veil helps to create the peaceful society that the religion nurtures. The hijab has several layers of wisdom and blessings. It may not give complete protection against evil, but it can alter the wearer's tenacity in the same way that prayer has a greater impact on our inner states rather than just our outside circumstances. Since human nature is immutable, the laws that must govern our discipline should likewise be based on tried-and-true basic ideas. Man's nature being immutable, the need to shed this outer layer of modesty does not exist, even so, some see the hijab as an outdated ritual.
