Title: Consumerism: buy more, be happy?

Synopsis: You may have heard the saying 'He who dies with the most toys wins!' The world is chasing the pursuit of more things, more stuff, in a quest to be happy. But does this pursuit help one achieve inner peace? Will buying more, truly make you feel better in the long term?

In this episode of Pathway to Peace, Sufyan Farooqi and Arif Khan explore this notion, examining current trends and analysing expert opinion; as well as looking at what Islamic philosophy says in relation to one's quest to achieve true happiness and inner peace.
