🌍 In this episode of Muslim Makers, Silicon-Valley-raised entrepreneur Adil Abbuthalha tells how being fired from Big Tech for publicly backing a boycott led him to code Boycat in October 2023, an app that turns shoppers’ phones into a quiet economic megaphone against injustice. A single Instagram Reel sent it viral, clocking a million views and thousands of downloads in days.

Adil explains why redirecting spending can outweigh political slogans, and unveils Boycat’s next steps—Zoomies, a local-business finder, and an in-house ethical-certification programme—designed to make “spending right” effortless.
