Embracing Islam: Ayana Jihye Moon's Path to Purpose

[@thejapanesemuslimah]

This interview was very interesting. As Muslims from East Asia, I am very close to Korean Muslims, and they are very confident, and I think Japanese Muslims have a lot to learn from them.Ayana has been a Muslimah longer than me, so I can relate to some of problems that she mentioned. And I also love Islam more after seeing Muslims in Malaysia and Indonesia. The interviewees' questions were very pertinent and I really enjoyed this interview very much. May Allah SWT bless you all.

Here, KJ and Sharil , i am proud of your adab. I watched several interviews of her with a renowned Indonesia ulamak; disappointed when they quickly become 'mengatal', very cringe worthy. But you guys, are simply the best!

She reminds me of Ustazah Asma Harun, she got multiple businesses and people might see it in a different ways like "cukuplah tu, beribadat pulak".. but no, she keeps on working.

I would like to suggest Alif Satar for his Geng Subuh movement for your next guest.He's prolly few of the known leading youth,theres infact so many of the unsung youth leaders bt lets start with Alif 1st. And,can you make a 30minutes educational segment introducing races in Malaysia.Our children nowdays only knew of the 3main races but with this segment,you can introduce 1 race per segment...say a Lun Bawang rep or a portugese Melaka rep or an orang asli rep....its a never been done in any Malaysian podcast before but im hoping it will be an eye opener and least sow a spirit of unity amongst us.ty

[@sofiyahrahmat8225]

With two hosts like KJ and Shahril I am sure we can hear many interesting stories from Alif.

[@acesf93]

Pandangan saya, KJ dan SH perlu simplify english yang digunakan supaya flow conversation lebih baik, terutamanya bila guest punya english is 2nd or 3rd language. I think some of the questions can be further simplified so that we can get a better explanation from the guest

[@zahaby8505]

I saw that her thirst for knowledge which relates to what she said about akal, intellect, love to study, understand culture etc. had made her wanting to know more about Islam. Also based on her story. Its like Allah has choose her too to go through the path and eventually in future make a path for more Korean especially to maybe one day embrace Islam or at least be more visible and significant. Personal experience. Went to Korea in 2010 vs Japan. Korea seems like a closed door & foreign for Islam compared to Japan. Even their awarnes on Halal & Halal Food certified body came way more later. Imagine Seoul Central Mosque in Itaewon serounded with really "interesting" (read: lorong haji taib kind of) place 😅

KINDRED STORIES IS ONE LEVEL HIGHER THAN KELUAR SEKEJAP.

[@0900370pian]

I disagree. Keluar Sekejap has more influences and although politic based, it touches various other branches as well such video of the week, reading of the week, number of the week etc. I learned more on Keluar Sekejap than Kindred Stories. Kindred Stories focus more on Islam related issues and the experiences of the guest.

[@RoamingCosmos]

Its depend on the contexts,. Because keluar sekejap is not focus on the person more to the issue/topic that involve certain individual, while kindered stories focus on the individual that involve certain issue/topic.. However this is just my point of view,.

[@amirah-ishak88]

This is the importance of Islam and intellect in our religion, because we need people who have this kind of thinking, that's why Rasullullah attracts people to Islam with morals and wisdom, not forcing or expecting people to convert to Islam, the fact of guidance belongs to God, for me to make people interested with Islam in the best way is the way of Rasullullah and Al Fateh, more intellectual and technological in Islam, because everything that non-Muslims take from Islam but unfortunately Muslims themselves do not appreciate the advantages of Islam itself..
