Ep 35. What Does Being Religious in Islam Mean?
09/07/2017 Duração: 48minThe idea of being religious often conjures up to the mind the image of one being divorced from the material world to engage in ritual practice with the purpose of attaining nearness to God. However, from an Islamic point of view this is an extremely narrow understanding that limits the scope of what Islam is meant to encompass as a way of life. While devotion to ritual practice is highly encourage and praised, it certainly is not the only way to get close to God. Indeed, Muslim scholars have considered that the ritualistic night vigil for a student or a scholar is to study and write. From this the division of transitive and non-transitive acts of worship was developed, where in which the merit of the action is evaluated based on whether its benefit is restricted to the person performing it or more widespread to benefit the whole community. The topic addressed in this episode is on the question of religiosity in Islam, which encompasses much more than simply holding prayers and fasting. Website http://www.anda

Ep 25. On Brain Studies of Men and Women
26/03/2017 Duração: 30minNeuroscience is a fascinating field, and scientists working in this area have produced a great body of research that has a direct impact on numerous medical conditions. In addition, findings from brain studies continue to shed insight into the physiological underpinnings correlated with behaviour. However, too often we fall prey to our own success and impose unwarranted conclusions to extend the relevance of neuroscience studies beyond the questions they were intended to answer. Topics discussed in this episode include the goal of brain studies, significance of differences between brain regions, the role of meta-analysis studies, and what the difference between male and female brains means but, more importantly, what it doesn't.
