Author: NYU Islamic Center November 28, 2022 Duration: 58:52
The religion of Islam embraces cultural practice and in no way prohibits its expression unless its in conflict with religious law. In this lecture, Dr. Sheikh Faiyaz discusses how culture can be used for positive growth, but can also serve as a barrier in one way or another, particularly when it comes to marriage. The lecture is in three primary dimensions: 1- Defining Culture 2- Where is there Room for Culture in Islamic Law? 3- Cultural Barriers in Contemporary Marriages

Stepping into the vibrant, often complex world of a university student can raise profound questions about faith, identity, and purpose. The NYU Islamic Center Podcasts, presented by the Islamic Center at New York University, creates a thoughtful space to explore these intersections. Rather than offering simple answers, these conversations delve into the rich tapestry of Islamic thought, connecting timeless spiritual knowledge with the realities of contemporary life. You'll hear discussions that feel both grounded and immediate, where scholars, community leaders, and students themselves reflect on how faith informs everything from personal ethics to engaging with current events. This isn't a lecture series, but a dynamic dialogue meant to accompany you. Each episode invites reflection, offering perspectives that are both intellectually rigorous and deeply personal, all stemming from the unique environment of NYU's diverse community. Tune into this podcast for a sincere and nuanced exploration of spirituality that acknowledges the questions of modern life while drawing from a well of ancient wisdom.
