I am pleased to announce a new collaboration with the Dhawq Podcast! Going forward I will be editing and publishing new episodes on my channel. The content aligns much with my own and even involves real scholars of the field, so I hope you all enjoy! The new episode on ibn Arabi and his prophetic archetypes is now up.
You can find it on Spotify and Apple Podcast as well.
