  • the child we never got to hold
    2025/12/13

    In this deeply personal episode, I share my journey with infertility and the loss of a child we waited over four years for. I speak about the before, the during, and the after the hope, the heartbreak, and the moments that changed me forever.


    I reflect on the impact of the people around me, the words that stayed, and the silence that followed. Through an Islamic lens, I explore the hadith that speaks of children who pass away and are granted Jannah children who refuse to enter until their parents are allowed to enter with them.


    This episode is a reflection on grief, faith, unanswered duʿāʾ, and trusting Allah through profound loss.

  • Its ok to want to take your hijab off
    2025/12/02

    In this episode, I open up about something deeply personal my real, unfiltered journey with hijab and later, the niqab. Not the Instagram-perfect version. Not the polished “I woke up one day and felt spiritually transformed” story. But the actual struggle. The fear. The doubt. The weight of becoming visibly Muslim in a world that doesn’t always welcome it.


    I talk about what it felt like to take those early steps, the internal battles that no one sees, the comments from the community that made it harder, and the courage it took to keep going anyway. And most importantly, I speak to every sister who’s struggling… every sister who wonders if she’s the only one finding this difficult… every sister who feels like her efforts aren’t enough.


    You’re not alone.

    We are all navigating this journey in our own imperfect, beautiful way.

    And the fact that you even try the fact that you take one step toward Allah, even when you feel scared that is something powerful. Something honorable.


    This episode is an honest conversation, a gentle reminder, and a heartfelt hug to every woman carrying her faith on her shoulders every single day.


    Tune in, take a breath, and let’s walk this journey together behind the veil and beyond it.

  • Why are grown men obsessed with young girls ?
    2025/11/17

    In this episode, we speak openly about the realities our communities often pretend don’t exist grooming, manipulation, child marriage, and the ways power and silence allow harm to continue. We break down how predators operate, step by step, why victims often don’t recognize it, and how cultural and religious denial can protect the wrong people while leaving young girls vulnerable. Expect honest, unfiltered conversations about boundaries, accountability, and the systems that fail to protect the most vulnerable. We explore the emotional and psychological impact of grooming, the shame unfairly placed on victims, and how to create safer spaces for the next generation.


    This episode isn’t just about listening it’s about speaking. If you’ve experienced or witnessed these issues, we encourage you to share your story, add your voice, and help break the silence. Your experiences matter, and together we can start changing the narrative, holding power accountable, and protecting the next generation.

  • her death taught me how to live
    2025/11/02

    In this intimate episode, I open up about my mother’s final moments with cancer and the most beautiful memory I hold of her. Through her death, I learned one of life’s hardest and holiest lessons: that self-love is not selfish, it’s sacred. I reflect on the prophetic teaching where Allah’s Messenger ﷺ reminds us to care for ourselves first, then our families, and then others with what remains. This episode is a gentle reminder to every eldest daughter the caretaker, the peacemaker, the one who always holds it together that you cannot pour from an empty cup. It’s time to return to yourself with mercy.

  • What if polygamy isn't the problem?
    2025/10/18

    This isn’t an easy conversation.

    Polygamy is one of those words that makes people flinch especially women.

    It’s been used to wound, to justify, to control.

    But it’s also been deeply misunderstood.


    In this pisode of The Seeking Covering Podcast, I sit with two women a first wife and a second wife to talk about what it really feels like to live inside that verse everyone quotes.


    We talk about heartbreak and faith, jealousy and surrender.

    About what justice looks like when love is divided, and what faith feels like when your heart is breaking.

    It’s raw, it’s uncomfortable, and it’s real.


    This isn’t about defending or condemning polygamy.

    It’s about listening really listening to the women who live it.

    It’s about the weight of being tested by what’s allowed, and the courage to find Allah in the middle of it all.


    The Seeking Covering Podcast where faith gets personal.

  • The Weight of Manhood in Islam
    2025/10/05

    What does Islam really expect from men?


    In this episode, we explore the Qur’anic idea of qiwama not as control or privilege, but as amanah: a weight of responsibility, mercy, and accountability before Allah. We revisit the examples of Abu Bakr, Umar, and the Prophet ﷺ to uncover what true manhood looked like in their lives: sacrifice, humility, and service.


    But we also face the uncomfortable truth how today many men chase authority while abandoning responsibility, and how cultural double standards distort the balance that Islam set.


    This episode is a reminder, a challenge, and an invitation: for men to rise to their responsibility, for women to know the dignity Islam grants them, and for our communities to return to the prophetic model of justice and mercy.

  • marriage is not a destination
    2025/09/22

    In this heartfelt episode of Marriage Is Not the Destination, I sit down with Sister Fatima Sab a modern Muslim matchmaker, for a candid and deeply needed conversation on the full journey of marriage: the before, the during, the divorce, and the after.


    Together, we unpack not only the hopes and joys of marriage but also the challenges and fears that many women face, especially when contemplating leaving unhealthy or abusive relationships. We reflect on the Qur’ānic vision of marriage as a space of tranquility, affection, and mercy as Allah says in Sūrat al-Rūm (30:21): “He created for you from yourselves mates so that you may find tranquility in them, and He placed between you affection and mercy.”


    We also explore Sūrat al-Ṭalāq (65:2–3), where Allah promises that even after separation He will provide for both parties from His infinite provision. This divine reassurance speaks directly to one of the greatest fears many women hold: the fear of financial instability and raising children alone after leaving a harmful relationship.


    This episode is an honest, faith-centered discussion about what healthy marriage can look like, the courage to walk away when it is no longer safe, and the unshakable trust in Allah’s mercy and sustenance at every stage.

  • The envious woman
    2025/09/09

    This week on The Seeking Covering Podcast, I speak to my sisters about a hard truth that sometimes, women become other women’s worst enemies. Behind the smiles, there can be secret envy, silent grudges, and quiet competition.


    But our Deen calls us to something higher. The Prophet ﷺ taught us to love for our sisters what we love for ourselves, to support rather than destroy, to lift each other with sincerity and compassion.


    In this episode, I want to peel back the layers of envy, reflect on how it poisons our hearts, and remind us of the beauty of a heart that loves for the sake of Allah. Because healing begins when we let go of envy and choose love instead.
