Join our hosts for Tuesday’s show from 4-6pm where we will be discussing: ‘Cost of Living Crisis’ and ‘Artificial Influence: Are we becoming too dependent?’
Cost of Living Crisis
The cost of living is putting increasing pressure on households across the UK, with rising housing, energy, food and everyday costs making it harder to make ends meet. Join us as we explore its impact on different communities and the Islamic perspective on financial responsibility, wealth and social welfare.
Artificial Influence: Are we becoming too dependent?
AI is becoming part of almost every aspect of our lives, but are we becoming too dependent? Are we gaining convenience at the cost of creativity, reflection and wisdom? Join us as we explore how AI is changing the way we think, learn and live — and what Islam teaches us about knowledge, reflection and tawakkul.
