Journalism done in the right way always comes with a huge cost.Gaza has made it clear. Godi Media in India tells us the opposite story. Journalism has become mere puppetry in the hands of Modi.
Maktoob media and Shaheen Abdulla have a different story to tell. Over the years, they've strived to make truth reach the masses, which has disturbed the state in not a small extent. Recent freeze of their twitter account tells the rest.
Join us as we chat with Shaheen Abdulla over his experiences at field, especially of his coverage of the Delhi pogrom and the Rohingya issue
In this episode of Uppu Podcast, we delve into the heart of occupied Palestine, where the Qur'an is not just read, it's lived. In a land ravaged by war, genocide, and relentless oppression, the people of Gaza hold fast to the divine words of the Qur’an not merely as scripture, but as a way of being. They are the living tafasīr, breathing life into the verses through their courage, patience, and unwavering faith. As bombs fall, homes collapse, and families are torn apart, the Qur’an remains close to their hearts, guiding every breath and step. Huffādh continues to recite sacred verses under rubble. Children memorise ayahs in refugee tents. Mothers whisper divine promises of justice and mercy to their young, even while grieving unbearable losses. We reflect on how the Qur'an becomes a shield in the face of genocide, how its message echoes in every act of Palestinian endurance, and how the world beyond Palestine watches some in awe, others in silence. This episode is a powerful reminder that while the world may try to erase a people, their faith cannot be destroyed. Palestinians are not just living with the Qur'an. They are living Qur'ans. Witness a testament to divine connection, human resilience, and the unshakable power of belief.
