This week on Geopolity's What We're Watching, we examine three stories that reveal how power, history and geopolitics continue to shape the world around us. 🔹 The US-Iran Memorandum: Peace Deal or Strategic Pause? Washington and Tehran have signed a memorandum aimed at de-escalating their conflict and opening negotiations. But does the agreement represent genuine peace, or merely a temporary pause before the next phase of confrontation? 🔹 Palestine Action Activists Jailed Four Palestine Action activists have received lengthy prison sentences following a raid on an Israeli arms manufacturer. We examine the legal significance of the case, the use of terrorism-related sentencing provisions, and what it could mean for political activism and civil liberties in Britain. 🔹 Transatlantic Slavery and the Reparations Debate African and Caribbean leaders have renewed calls for reparations and formal apologies for the transatlantic slave trade. We explore the geopolitical implications of the growing reparations movement and the debate surrounding historical responsibility. Join us as we break down the stories our analysts are watching and explain why they matter. 🌍 Geopolity provides independent geopolitical analysis, helping you understand the forces shaping our world.

America didn’t sign this deal out of strength but out of desperation. So why did Trump concede so much to Iran? In this podcastI break down the US-Iran MoU and what was really forcing America’s hand. We look at the Strait of Hormuz, the strategic oil reserves, and how it all ties back to debt, the bond market, and the petrodollar.

When Iran's own survival was threatened, red lines suddenly disappeared, strategic advantages were used, and risks that once seemed impossible became possible. So the question is unavoidable: If these tools existed for Iran, why weren't they used when Gaza was being destroyed? Source : https://youtube.com/shorts/aSNEYN_BfiY?si=Su8P_5uVMF8MsHq5

Trump gives in to Iran

👀 A must-listen discussion that challenges everything we think we know about freedom, justice, and liberation. Juneteenth commemorates the end of visible slavery—the chains, the plantations, and the ownership of human beings. But what if slavery didn’t disappear? What if it simply evolved into invisible forms of servitude that still shape society today? From systemic oppression and economic dependence to political manipulation and global injustice, the speaker forces us to ask: Did slavery truly end—or did it just become harder to see? A powerful discussion on freedom, oppression, and the liberation that Islam offers to all of mankind.

What is geopolitics, and how can understanding it help make sense of the world? In this Geopolity Podcast, we explore the foundations of geopolitics. From the rise of tribes and kingdoms to the invention of the modern nation-state, this episode examines the forces that shape global affairs and determine why some nations become powerful while others struggle. We discuss the importance of geography, history, foreign policy, technology, military power, economics and national strategy. We also explore how geopolitical analysts approach international events, separate signal from noise, and build a framework for understanding a complex world. Whether you are new to geopolitics or looking to strengthen your analytical skills, this episode provides a practical introduction to the concepts that underpin international relations and global power. ⏱ Chapters 00:10 - Intro 01:01 - Where is the best place to begin with Geopolitics? 04:54 - How was the nation state invented? 09:58 - The Role of History 14:22 - The Importance of Geography 17:37 - Making Sense of Foreign Policy 22:44 - How do you follow 200 nations in the world? 25:40 - The Role of Technology in Geopolitics 28:04 - Power Dynamics: Military, Political and Economic 30:54 - The Global Power Rankings 37:24 - Conclusions #Geopolitics #InternationalRelations #ForeignPolicy #WorldPolitics #Geography #Strategy #NationStates #GlobalPower If you like this podcast and want to learn more about the issues raised, please check out website http://www.thegeopolity.com

Arab Muslim Rulers Need To Be Held To Account

Riots have erupted across Britain again from Southampton to a pogrom in Belfast. But who actually benefits when crime becomes a trigger for racial violence? This is how outrage gets manufactured, and who profits from keeping you angry. In this video we break down the two crimes behind the 2026 riots, the politicians and media figures who exploited them, the two-tier outrage at the heart of it all, and the foreign hands stirring division in Britain from Tel Aviv to Washington to Moscow.

In this week's What We're Watching, our analysts examine three stories that reveal the growing strains in the international system. First, reports suggest the Pentagon has raised concerns about Israeli espionage efforts directed at American negotiators involved in talks with Iran. While allies routinely gather intelligence on one another, some U.S. officials believe recent Israeli activities have crossed a line, highlighting growing tensions within one of Washington's most important strategic relationships. Next, we look at the war in Ukraine, which has now lasted longer than the First World War. More than four years after Russia's invasion, the conflict remains locked in a costly stalemate. We assess how Russia adapted its economy and military, Ukraine's dependence on Western support, and what the war's longevity tells us about the future of the conflict. Finally, we turn to Pakistan-administered Kashmir, where deadly protests have erupted following a government crackdown, internet shutdowns, mass arrests and a dispute over reserved legislative seats. We explore the political status of the territory, the roots of the unrest, and why the protests could have wider implications for the region. Join us as we break down the geopolitics behind the headlines. ⏱ Chapters 0:00 Intro 0:10 Pentagon Raises Spying Threat Level from Israel 1:31 Ukraine's War Is Now Longer Than World War One 2:43 Deadly Protests in Pakistan-Administered Kashmir If you like this podcast and want to learn more about the issues raised, please check out website http://www.thegeopolity.com

The Islamic year begins with Hijrah, but do we understand why the Sahabah chose it as the starting point? This was not just a migration, nor a spiritual memory to revisit once a year. It marked a shift from weakness to authority, from scattered suffering to a mission of justice for mankind. In an age of massacres, silence, and political paralysis, this talk confronts the Ummah with the meaning of responsibility of all Muslims before it is too late.

Hijrah-Celebrating What We Abandoned What does Hijrah really mean — a date to celebrate, or a warning we forgot? This talk challenges the comfort of empty remembrance and forces the Ummah to confront the power, dignity, and responsibility buried inside that historic turning point. How do we take up the responsibility?

Israel’s Plan to Control the Water

A rift is emerging between the US and Europe over competing visions of the future direction of AI. The future of global AI standards depends on whether Europe and the US can achieve pragmatic alignment or if the digital landscape will succumb to jurisdictional fragmentation.

Iran fired on Israel for the first time since April. America told both sides to stop. Israel ignored them. And Iran is walking away from this looking stronger than when it started. In this podcast I break down the real objectives of each side, why America is desperate for an off-ramp it can’t reach, and why Iran is no longer just fighting to survive.

Genius Strategy – U.S. Dollar Dominance

We worry about leaving behind money, houses, and inheritance, but what if what we leave behind becomes a burden against us? This address confronts the reality of death, fatherhood, legacy, and allegiance to Allah. It asks a question every Muslim must face before the grave asks it first: Is Islam merely an identity, or is it complete submission to the Rabb who legislates and commands? A reminder that comfort, delay, and excuses cannot protect us when death arrives.

America Wanted To Avoid This One Problem Suffered By Empires

Israel has invaded Lebanon six times since 1978. Every time the justification changes. The geography never does. In this video we trace Israel’s real objective in southern Lebanon from the first Zionist maps drawn in 1897, to Ben-Gurion’s private diaries, to Smotrich saying it out loud on Israeli radio in 2026. This war is not simply about Hezbollah or creating security buffers. We cover the Litani River, the Syrian dams, the Jordan River diversion, and what it means for the Muslim world when an occupying power controls who gets water and who doesn’t.

Surah Al-Balad begins with a shocking refusal: Allah does not swear by Makkah while His Messenger ﷺ is being threatened within it. What does that reveal about sacred places corrupted by tyranny? This powerful discussion tears into the arrogance of those who spend wealth to fight the truth, thinking no one sees them and no one can overcome them. From Quraysh to modern empires, the same delusion repeats — but the Qur’an exposes it with terrifying clarity.

Today — June 5th — marks the wound of 1967, the day Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa fell under occupation. But the real question is not only how Aqsa was taken — it is why the Ummah remains trapped behind flags, borders, and excuses while Allah will ask: what did you do?

How Arab States Help Fund the American Empire

This week on Geopolity’s What We’re Watching, our analysts examine three developments that could have significant geopolitical consequences in the months and years ahead. Iran Rejects Trump’s Terms Despite repeated claims from Washington that a nuclear agreement is close, Tehran has pushed back, insisting that no final deal has been reached. We examine the ongoing standoff, Iran’s demands for sanctions relief, the strategic importance of the Strait of Hormuz, and what the failure of the US-Israel pressure campaign means for the balance of power in the Middle East. Israel Continues to Seize Gaza Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced plans to expand Israeli control over Gaza from 60% to 70% of the territory. We break down what this means for the ceasefire agreement, Israel’s long-term objectives, Palestinian displacement, and the broader implications for regional stability. Japan’s Population Drops by 3 Million Japan’s demographic crisis continues to deepen. With a shrinking workforce, rapidly aging population, and one of the world’s lowest birth rates, we explore why Japan’s population decline matters not only for Tokyo, but for the future of the global economy and the international balance of power.

What happens when tyrants mock the truth while Allah says: “We know what they say". In the ending of Surah Qāf, their lies become the doorway to a greater reality: life, death, resurrection, and the final return. The lesson is clear: do not be shaken by their words — persist with the Qur’an before the Day no one can escape.

Will Iran Collapse

Why has Hajj become harder while the Ummah is told to remain silent? When access to the House of Allah becomes tied to money, permission, power, and political loyalty, something far deeper has gone wrong. Is the path to Allah’s House truly open — or has it been surrounded by wealth, borders, politics, and control? The Sheik confronts the uncomfortable reality behind our sacred obligation and the solution.

The Mihna refers to an event during the rule of the Abbasid Caliphate where ulema were pressured to accept the Mu'tazali view of the Qur'an as being created, rather than the mainstream position of it being the Word of Allah.

Source: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DY0uA5zuUGo/?igsh=cDA0a3Rtem5hdWhv Traslatiion (English) - Every Eid al-Adha, millions of Muslims revive the rituals of Ibrahim عليه السلام. We sacrifice. We make takbeer. We remember submission to Allah سبحانه وتعالى. But Ibrahim عليه السلام did not leave behind rituals alone. He left behind a legacy of leadership, sacrifice, and obedience to Allah سبحانه وتعالى in every aspect of life. The Prophets after him did not only teach people how to worship privately. They governed by revelation. They carried justice to society. They ruled by what Allah سبحانه وتعالى revealed. From Dawud عليه السلام to Muhammad ﷺ, Islam was never separated from authority, leadership, and the responsibility of caring for the affairs of humanity. And the Prophet ﷺ did not leave this Ummah as an Ummah of scattered individuals. He established a state in Madinah that carried Islam to the world as mercy, justice, and guidance. But today, more than 100 years after the destruction of the Khilafah, look at the condition of the Ummah. Gaza burns. Al-Aqsa remains occupied. Sudan bleeds. And humanity itself suffers under systems built upon greed, oppression, and power. This Eid is not only a celebration. It is a reminder of responsibility. A reminder that this Ummah was meant to lead. Meant to carry Islam completely. Meant to revive the deen in society, governance, and life. The rituals of Hajj teach us unity. The sacrifice of Ibrahim عليه السلام teaches us submission. The takbeer reminds us that Allah سبحانه وتعالى is greater than every tyrant, every empire, and every false system that dominates the earth today. So let Eid not end with celebration alone. Reconnect yourself to the mission of this Ummah. Reconnect yourself to the Quran. Reconnect yourself to the work of dawah and revival. Reconnect yourself to the obligation of working for the return of Islam as a complete way of life. May Allah سبحانه وتعالى accept our sacrifices. May He unite this Ummah once again. May He allow us to witness the return of dignity, justice, and the banner of Islam raised once more. Eid Mubarak to the Ummah of Muhammad ﷺ 🌙

Abu Huraira narrated that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "If one says one-hundred times in one day: ‘Laa 'ilaha illallahu wahadahu la sharika lahu, lahul-mulku wa lahul-hamdu wa Huwa 'ala kulli shay'in Qadir.’ (None has the right to be worshipped but Allah, the Alone Who has no partners, to Him belongs Dominion and to Him belong all the Praises, and He has power over all things (i.e. Omnipotent)), one will get the reward of manumitting ten slaves, and one-hundred good deeds will be written in his account, and one-hundred bad deeds will be wiped off or erased from his account, and on that day he will be protected from the morning till evening from Satan, and nobody will be superior to him except one who has done more than that which he has done."

The full Talbiyah declares: “Labbaik Allahumma labbaik. Labbayka la shareeka laka labbaik. Innal-hamda wan-ni‘mata laka wal-mulk. La shareeka lak.” Meaning: Here I am, O Allah, here I am. Here I am, You have no partner, here I am. Indeed, all praise, all blessings, and all sovereignty belong to You. You have no partner. Reflection: More than a chant, it is a declaration of Tawheed, submission, and loyalty to Allah alone. It reminds the Ummah that all praise, blessing, sovereignty, and authority belong to Allah سبحانه وتعالى. From an Islamic and ideological perspective, the Talbiyah calls Muslims to live as one Ummah, reject all partners with Allah in worship and rule, and carry Islam as a complete way of life.

this week on Geopolity’s What We’re Watching, our analysts break down three geopolitical stories: 🇵🇸 Gaza: Trump’s “Board of Peace” under scrutiny Six months after the US-backed “Board of Peace” took over Gaza’s administration, the humanitarian crisis continues to deepen. Aid restrictions, collapsing infrastructure, disease outbreaks, and mounting civilian suffering raise serious questions about whether the initiative has delivered peace—or merely political cover. 🇪🇺 Ukraine and the EU: Membership by another name? Germany’s proposal for “associate membership” for Ukraine could represent a major shift in Europe’s strategic approach. Is this a genuine pathway toward integration, or another symbolic gesture as divisions within Europe persist? 🇨🇳🇷🇺 Putin in China: Partnership or dependency? Vladimir Putin’s visit to Beijing was rich in symbolism—but what did Russia actually gain? As the Ukraine war drags on and Moscow’s economic pressures grow, we examine whether Russia’s relationship with China is one of strategic partnership—or increasing dependence. #Geopolitics #Gaza #Ukraine #Russia #China #Trump #Putin #XiJinping #europeanunion What our analysts are watching and key events they are keeping an eye on 0:00 – Intro 0:10 – Trump’s ‘Board of Peace’ Has Only Brought More Death and Suffering to Gaza 1:33 – EU to offer Ukraine ‘associate membership’ 3:04 – Putin Visits China If you like this podcast and want to learn more about the issues raised, please check out website http://www.thegeopolity.com

Every generation has its Pharaohs, its elites, and its oppressors who believe no one can reach them. But the Qur’an does not tell the stories of destroyed nations as history alone — it delivers them as a warning, a reminder for patience, and a source of certainty for those standing against falsehood. This tafseer of Sūrah Qāf 50:32–36 tears through the arrogance of tyrants and asks: do we truly believe that Allah’s power is greater than theirs? Listen closely — because the reminder only benefits the one whose heart is awake.

When blood is spilled, the world searches for excuses — but who dares to confront the root disease? The Sheik's address cuts through the noise of Islamophobia, racism, and political hypocrisy to expose a deeper crisis gripping humanity. Are Muslims merely victims begging broken systems for protection, or carriers of a divine message the world desperately needs?
