The Still Point
The Still Point offers short reflections on the Qur'an, the spiritual path of the Prophet of Islam, and calming prayers for people seeking clarity, rest, and direction. Each episode explores a verse, a word, a prayer, or a theme in simple English with the beauty of the Arabic preserved. Episodes are short (usually under ten minutes) and designed for quiet moments — after Fajr, during a commute, or before sleep. The goal is not lectures, but reflection: one idea, one verse, one turning of the heart.

It is a deep, quiet tiredness in our minds and our hearts. In this episode, we explore the word رَبِّ (Rabbi) from Surah Al-Fātiḥah — a...
