As the sacred season of Dhul Hijjah draws near and millions prepare their hearts for Hajj 2025, join us for Episode 4 of Journeys of Faith: Stories of the Prophets in Hajj.

This episode highlights the inspiring story of Prophet Ishaq (AS), the blessed brother of Ismail (AS), whose miraculous birth and prophetic lineage continue to shape the legacy of monotheism.

In this thoughtful conversation, Aleem, Amr, Mustafa, and Jawahar dive deep into:

  • The miracle of Ishaq’s birth in Prophet Ibrahim’s old age, a testament to Allah’s infinite power
  • How Ishaq (AS) carried forward the prophetic line, including his sons Ya’qub (AS) and Yusuf (AS)
  • The unique but intertwined legacies of Ishaq (AS) and Ismail (AS) in Islamic tradition
  • Why Ismail is closely connected to Hajj, while Ishaq’s descendants shaped later prophetic histories
  • Practical reflections on asking the impossible from Allah — trusting in His kindness and power, just like Ibrahim and his family did
  • How to find hope in unanswered prayers, knowing Allah always plans what is best for us

Whether you’re preparing for the pilgrimage or seeking inspiration in your faith journey, this episode invites you to reflect on trusting Allah’s wisdom and embracing the blessings He grants — even when they seem impossible.

Listen now & reflect:
How can we deepen our trust in Allah, asking boldly from the One who created everything?
