In this episode, they explore the growing use of artificial intelligence — including ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Grok — to answer Islamic questions. As more people turn to AI for guidance on halal and haram, relationships, and personal struggles, the conversation asks whether these tools can truly understand Islamic morality, intention, and lived context, or whether they are limited to surface-level information without hikmah.The discussion also touches on recent controversy surrounding Grok on X (formerly Twitter), highlighting how AI systems continue to generate problematic responses and spark backlash when moral boundaries are crossed. Ahmed and Sayed Ali unpack why AI will keep making mistakes, why it cannot grasp accountability or ethics in the Islamic sense, and the dangers of outsourcing religious understanding to machines.
