How do we draw the line between his whisperings and our own thoughts? What is the relationship between these whisperings and obsessive-compulsive disorder? In this episode, host Mohamad Zaoud talks to Sr. Najwa Awad, a fellow at Yaqeen Institute and author of the paper, “Clinicians, Imams, and the Whisperings of Satan.”📫 Join the newsletter! https://yqn.io/doubletake-email-signup📨 Share your feedback! https://yqn.io/podcastfeedback👍🏻 Don't forget to follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/yaqeenpodcast📨 Share your feedback! https://yqn.io/podcastfeedback📫 Join the newsletter! https://yqn.io/doubletake-email-signup👍🏻 Follow us on Instagram! https://instagram.com/yaqeenpodcast
