Description

Episode 02 | From Prison Walls to Sacred Lands

In this episode, Shaykh Anis Ahmed speaks with Imam Bilal bin Asif — a prison chaplain and Hajj & Umrah guide — to explore two vastly different yet spiritually rich environments: the prison system and the sacred cities of Makkah and Madinah.

Imam Bilal shares real-life experiences and valuable reflections on:

  • The emotional and spiritual challenges faced by Muslim prisoners

  • Memorable moments and lessons from leading pilgrims during Hajj and Umrah

  • The shared themes of patience, sincerity, and reliance on Allah

  • Practical advice for those preparing for the sacred journey of Hajj or Umrah
