Dear Lifesaver Podcast – Ep#1: The Role of Sacrifice in Transforming Yourself

Welcome to the Dear Lifesaver podcast!

On the Dear Lifesaver podcast we’re tackling some big questions we have about aid in the 21st century, finding out what it takes to save a life, and exploring how faith factors into all of this…

The biggest question is, could you help save and transform more lives by learning something new about humanitarian aid?

Episode #1: The Subject of Sacrifice with Dr. Wajid Akhter

Dr. Wajid is Vice-President of the British Islamic Medical Association and the International Director of FIMA Lifesavers. Amongst his many achievements, he’s the founder of Charity Week, a staggeringly successful annual global initiative that rallies together students across the world to raise stunning amounts for orphans and children in need – in the space of just days!

As this episode was released during the sacred month of Dhul Hijjah we spoke to Dr. Wajid on the subject of sacrifice in light of Hajj period and the significance of Ibrahim’s (AS) own story of sacrifice. We asked Dr. Wajid how to effectively carve out space in our individual lives to benefit others, and what role sacrifice plays in that journey!
