In the fast-paced modern life, humans often lose balance between their duties, behaviour, and moral values. We either become too rigid or too liberal, losing sight of our faith and its core message.

In our relationship with religion and the world, Islam ordains balance and nor leaning on either side. Islam preaches prudence, and the middle path, but maintaining this balance can sometimes be difficult in changing times.

Recognising this, Awaz-the Voice has launched a thought-provoking podcast program, Deen aur Duniya. This podcast seeks to address the questions, dilemmas, and misconceptions that Muslim society faces today. With the insights of scholars, Ulema and experts, It aims to explain that Deen and Duniya are not opposites, but complementary.

The first episode of this podcast explains the inspiration behind launching "Deen Aur Duniya" and the thought and preparation that went into its launch. This program took shape after several days of brainstorming. This first episode attempts to highlight the need for discourse in today's times that neither leads to fanaticism nor alienates people from faith.

The introduction to the podcast states that Deen Aur Duniya is a new and exclusive podcast from Awaz-The Voice, which features meaningful discussions on the balance between Islam and modern life.

In its first episode, historian and columnist Saqib Salim joins Awaz-The Voice's Editor-in-Chief, Atir Khan, to discuss the show's core concept and purpose. This conversation not only explains the program's background but also gives listeners a peek into the future episodes.

This podcast attempts to dispel many misconceptions and narrow-minded view on Islam, particularly among Indian Muslims. Its goal is to empower the Muslim community to move forward with confidence, understandi the challenges of modern times, and to see their faith as integral to life, not separate from it.

Every week, the podcast will feature Islamic scholars, academics, social activists and Muslim intellectuals, who will openly discuss contemporary issues with host Saqib Salim.These will focus on topics such as modern education, the role and rights of women, conservative thinking, social change, religious understanding, and identity. These dialogues will be presented in a simple, logical, and practical manner, rather than in a didactic style, so that young people and the general audience can easily connect with them.

At a time when negativity and conflict have become the USP of news, Awaz-The Voice is treading a different path. It is the country's only digital news platform that brings positive stories and ideas about cooperation, coexistence, and peaceful living from India and around the world.

It believes that Indians share many concerns, challenges and visions for the future across religions or castes, and that this common ground can become the greatest force for uniting society.

The first podcast:

The Awaz's content not only promotes positive journalism but also encourages progressive and balanced thinking among Muslims. Din aur Duniya is an extension of this vision—a platform that bridges religious consciousness and modern life.
