Description

Season 2 - Episode 11 - Friends and Allies -  In this episode of Re-Sight Islam, Qasim and Salaam take a look at an issue that is all too common in today's society - the bullying of people because of their differences - and how we can each step up to stop it and become the Friends and Allies that we all need.
Using today's headlines, personal examples from their own lives and the historical precedent set in the history of Islam, Qasim and Salaam explain how ignorance and fear can be overcome by knowledge and compassion.
The team reaches back to 90's pop culture references and, in a flashback, explain why "Saved by the Bell" was never Qasim's favorite show!  Find out what the Q'uran teaches about the respect of women, what it really means to be "sent to the pirncipal's office", and how do you answer the question "You're a Muslim, right?"

Welcome to Re-Sight Islam, a weekly podcast presented by The Religion News Foundation. I am your host Salaam Bhatti. In this podcast we shed light on a world that politicians, pundits and preachers ignore. Here we take a second look at Islam. A look without the taboos of asking the ‘wrong question,’ but instead a frank dialogue that opens minds and fosters understanding through stories and interviews. So, join me as we have some fun learning about what unites us as we Re-Sight Islam.
