Islam is growing in Japan in ways that surprise almost everyone.
In this special episode, Dr. Yasir Qadhi visits the Kobe Masjid, the first mosque ever built in Japan and one of the only buildings that survived World War II.
This story is not only about the structure.
It is about the early Muslims who built it with their own hands, the elders who protected it through war and hardship, and the new generation of Japanese Muslims who are discovering Islam today.
Join us as we walk through a living symbol of resilience, speak with the community members who preserved its history, and explore how Islam continues to grow in a place far from its earliest heartlands.
History is not found only in archives. It lives in the people who keep it alive.
