Episode Eighteen of the Middle Ground Podcast
May 1
[
﷽
Welcome to Episode Eighteen of the Middle Ground Podcast. I am joined again by my brother Dawud Aleman. We discuss a recent encounter of a young man who came to Middle Ground, seeking some clarification on how to explore the truth-claims of Islām, to which I introduced the idea of Christianity being a “black box” when it comes to ascertaining its truth-claims. We explore this and other themes as it relates to understanding how Islām and Christianity are different and also how a non-Muslims assumptions about Christianity may problematize understanding Islām according to its own criteria. As usual, we discuss all topics in light of the Qur’ān and statements from the Prophet, ﷺ.
