Episode Details

Join our hosts for Monday’s show where we will be discussing: ‘Climate Crisis’ and 'True Happiness: what can we learn from our elders?’ Climate Crisis Climate change is no longer a distant concern, with rising temperatures, extreme weather and environmental damage affecting communities across the world. But as human activity continues to impact the planet, are we creating the very crisis we are struggling to overcome? Join us as we explore the causes and consequences of the climate crisis, the responsibility we have towards protecting our environment and how Islamic teachings encourage stewardship, balance and care for the Earth. True Happiness: what can we learn from our elders? Why do people often become happier as they get older, even as health and energy decline? Join us as we look at research suggesting that later-life happiness is linked to changing priorities, emotional balance and a clearer sense of what matters. What can younger generations take from this shift in perspective — and how does it connect with Islamic ideas of gratitude, patience and focusing the heart on what truly lasts?
