Could China End America’s Grip on the Muslim World? Ft. NewsBaba
<p>In this episode of The Thinking Youth, we sit down with Mahfuz Talukder for a deep and wide-ranging conversation on the changing global order, the decline of unipolar Western dominance, and the emergence of China as a civilisational and geopolitical superpower. As the balance of power shifts eastward, we explore what this transformation could mean for the Muslim world politically, economically, and strategically. Especially on today's key visit of US President Trump to China... the world is watching closely. </p><br><p>Together, we examine whether the world is entering a catastrophic shift and whether Muslim-majority nations are prepared to navigate it with clarity and long-term vision. The discussion explores China’s growing influence, the opportunities this presents for Muslim states, and the difficult moral and political questions that inevitably arise alongside strategic alliances.</p><br><p>We also confront some of the most pressing issues of our time: the treatment of Uyghur Muslims, the question of Taiwan, Xi Jinping’s long-term ambitions, and whether China’s current restraint on the global stage is temporary or strategic. Beyond statecraft and diplomacy, the conversation reflects on hard power, economic leverage, civilisational confidence, and the realities of building alternative alliances in a rapidly changing world.</p><br><p>As global instability intensifies and old assumptions begin to collapse, this episode asks a critical question: are we witnessing the beginning of a new world order - and if so, what place will the Muslim world occupy within it?</p><br><p>Comment your thoughts below !</p><br><p>Follow NewsBaba on TikTok:</p><p>https://www.tiktok.com/@mahfuztalukder</p><br><p>Subscribe for more conversations on geopolitics, strategy, and the ideas shaping our world.</p><br><p>Follow us on: </p><br><p>IG: / thinkingyouthpod </p><br><p>TikTok: / thinkingyouthpod </p><br><p>Subscribe to our Youtube channel for more: / @thethinkingyouth </p><br><p>Subscribe to the Thinking Muslim Podcast: / @thethinkingmuslim </p><br><p>Subscribe to Mosaab's Substack: https://notmosaad.substack.com</p><br><p>Subscribe to Arhaam's Substack: https://substack.com/@mohammadarhaamm...</p><br><p>Disclaimer:</p><p>The views expressed in this video are those of the individual speaker(s) and do not represent the views of the host, producers, platform, or any affiliated organisation.

<p>In this thought-provoking episode, The Thinking Youth sits down with Dr. Khalid El-Awaisi for a deep and reflective conversation recorded in Ireland on Al Aqsa Mosque and the Ummah. The discussion covers some of the most pressing political and moral questions facing the Muslim world today, while also reflecting on broader global dynamics, responsibility, and the role of young people in shaping meaningful change.</p><br><p>Dr. Khalid El-Awaisi engages in an honest exploration of current events, particularly focusing on Palestine and the situation around Al-Aqsa, while also examining wider questions of political strategy, global power structures, and the state of Muslim engagement with these issues.

Why Humiliation Fails: Dawah, Power & Changing Muslim Mindset | Sami Hamdi
<p>In this episode of Thinking Youth, we are joined by Sami Hamdi to dive into some of the most pressing emotional and spiritual challenges facing young Muslims today.</p><br><p>We begin with a powerful introduction before addressing the reality of open hatred and Islamophobia, including how to respond when individuals like Valentina Gomez and others publicly express hostility toward Muslims. This segment focuses on speaking with wisdom, strength, and purpose when addressing wider audiences.</p><br><p>As the conversation deepens, we explore the concept of a mindset shift granted by Allah (Swt). What does it mean to be spiritually aware? And how often are we blind to guidance that’s right in front of us? This section invites reflection on faith, growth, and self-awareness.</p><br><p>Finally, we turn inward to examine the role of parents in shaping who we are today - from our beliefs and values to our political perspectives. How should we navigate disagreements? What does Islam teach us about maintaining respect while thinking independently?</p><br><p>This episode is a call to reflect, grow, and engage thoughtfully with both the world around us and our inner selves. Let us know your thoughts in the comments!</p><br><p>Follow Sami Hamdi here:</p><p>X: https://x.com/SALHACHIMI</p><p>Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salhachimi/?hl=en</p><br><p>Subscribe for more conversations on geopolitics, strategy, and the ideas shaping our world.</p><br><p>Follow us on: </p><br><p>IG: / thinkingyouthpod </p><br><p>TikTok: / thinkingyouthpod </p><br><p>Subscribe to our Youtube channel for more: / @thethinkingyouth </p><br><p>Subscribe to the Thinking Muslim Podcast: / @thethinkingmuslim </p><br><p>Subscribe to Mosaab's Substack: https://notmosaad.substack.com</p><br><p>Subscribe to Arhaam's Substack: https://substack.com/@mohammadarhaamm...</p><br><p>Disclaimer:</p><p>The views expressed in this video are those of the individual speaker(s) and do not represent the views of the host, producers, platform, or any affiliated organisation.
