Salaam Alaykum, Welcome back to The Rogue Muslim podcast. This year, i'm starting a new series inspired by the Emma Guns Show. It's a practice of cultivating 26 habits through the course of the year – and in this case, cultivating 26 spiritual habits. Here is the Pre-Check-In for Habit #14, which is to recite the verse of Basmalah before each act. Have a listen to hear what I hope for it, and why i'm doing this. I would love to hear how you did with it, if you joined along! In this episode I discuss: - why I think this is necessary - the power of reciting the verse and it’s various commentaries - the bounties of reciting it - and more I hope you enjoy this series, and if you would join in on any of the habits, or cultivate your own, I would love to hear your reflections!
