Description

What do we mean when we talk about Muslim futures? In the opening episode, we set the stage for a journey into imagination, resistance, and radical possibility. We unpack the concept of "Muslim futures", why it's necessary, what it challenges, and how centering Muslim experiences can reshape our collective visions of what's to come. From speculative fiction to community organizing, from theology to technology, we look at how futures thinking intersects with Muslim life and thought. Throughout the series, we’ll return to two key questions: Who gets to imagine the future? And what happens when Muslims take the lead?
