Summary

**Please note that this conversation was interrupted by a few technical issues in the studio. We apologise for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.** What does it mean to be a young Muslim in Britain today? In this episode of The Thinking Youth, we sit down with Sean Ramiz to discuss his journey to Islam, the rise of anti-Muslim hatred, the far right and why Islam continues to be so deeply misunderstood. We explore how social media and digital echo chambers are shaping the way young people think, why difficult conversations still matter, and how Muslims should navigate politics, identity and injustice in Britain. Sean also reflects on Surah Ad-Duha, the difference between Islamic values and inherited culture, and the importance of remaining God-conscious in an increasingly polarised world. We also discuss Gaza and its impact on a generation, the state of dawah in Britain, and Sean shares the advice he would give to his 18-year-old self.
