Join our hosts for Thursday’s show from 4-6pm where we will be discussing: ‘War crimes stopped being shameful?’ and ‘Dying: the end?’ War crimes stopped being shameful? With constant headlines coming out of Gaza, Lebanon, and beyond, the term “war crimes” has become a daily staple of our news cycle. However, as the UN and international bodies repeatedly warn of violations, a chilling questions emerges: Have we become completely desensitised to the unthinkable? Join us as we ask if international law still holds any weight, or if the global conscience has simply moved on. Dying: the end? Dying is a universal reality, and topics such as assisted dying raise important ethical and societal questions about life, death, and human dignity. In Islam, death is not the end but a transition to the afterlife, where every soul returns to God and is held accountable. Join us as we explore these questions through Islamic teachings on death and after life death. Guests: Dr Sharon Ceon (Associate Professor in Media Psychology at the University of Salford) Ahmed Benchemsi (Advocacy and Communication Director for Human Rights Watch’s Middle East and North Africa division) Imam Anas Mahmood Producers: Iesha Khalid and Laiba Mubashar
