e-Muslimah

Assalamu Alaikum warahmatullahi wabaraktuhu. We often measure success by quantity, how much we earned, how many tasks we finished, or how many followers we have but in the life of a believer, the true measure of success is Barakah. In this episode, we’re exploring the subtle yet powerful signs of divine increase in a Muslim woman’s life. We discuss how Barakah isn’t about having more, but about Allah putting a special blessing in the little you have, making your time feel spacious, your wealth feel sufficient, and your heart feel at peace. By looking at the habits that invite or repel this blessing, we learn to recognize the presence of Allah’s favor in our daily routines and our relationships. As the Prophet (ﷺ) reminded us, true wealth is the wealth of the soul, and this conversation is about how to cultivate a life where every minute and every effort carries weight in the Akhirah.
"And if the people of the cities had believed and feared Allah, We would have opened upon them blessings [Barakah] from the heaven and the earth..." (Qur'an 7:96).
It’s a powerful reminder that Barakah is a spiritual result of our connection with Al-Karim (The Most Generous).

Assalamu Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu. As the month of mercy approaches, the difference between a transformative Ramadan and an overwhelming one often lies in the intention of our preparation. In this episode, we’re shifting away from the pressure of "doing it all" and focusing on the essential work of purifying the heart and detoxing our habits before the first crescent appears. We discuss how to clear the clutter of the dunya and a strained heart, letting go of grudges, mindless distractions, and old patterns, to make room for the light of the Qur'an. With a focus on attainable goals and sustainable shifts, we’re sharing practical tips to help you enter the month feeling grounded rather than rushed. Allah says, "Truly he succeeds that purifies it [the soul]" (91:9), and this conversation is about doing exactly that: preparing our inner vessels to receive the immense Barakah that Ramadan has to offer.
A Reflection for the Road:
Rajab is for planting the seeds, Shaban is for watering them, and Ramadan is for the harvest. Preparing now isn't about perfection; it’s about showing Allah that your heart is ready to welcome Him.

Assalamu Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu. We often carry a heavy weight of anxiety trying to manage outcomes, people, and circumstances that were never in our hands to begin with. In this episode, we’re discussing the essential balance between Tawakkul (reliance on Allah) and personal effort by defining what is actually within a Muslimah’s circle of control. When we stop exhausting ourselves over the "what-ifs" of the future and the opinions of others, we can finally redirect that energy toward our own character, our intentions, and our daily worship. Allah tells us in the Qur'an, "And upon Allah let the believers rely" (5:11). This conversation is about the peace that comes from doing your best and leaving the rest to the Only One who can truly govern the universe. It’s time to let go of the illusion of control and find the freedom that exists in surrendering to Al-Wakil (The Best Disposer of Affairs).

Assalamu Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu my dear sisters. In a world that thrives on constant visibility, the "Fear of Missing Out" has become more than just a social anxiety it’s a spiritual distraction that pulls us away from being present with Allah. In this episode, we are discussing how the habit of constantly looking at other people's lives quietly erodes our Rida (contentment) and creates a sense of lack where there should be gratitude. We’ll explore how to reclaim your focus, trust in your own Qadr, and realise that you can never truly "miss out" on what Allah has already written for you. It’s time to trade the anxiety of the scroll for the peace of a heart that is settled in its own journey.
A powerful reminder to keep in mind for this episode is the Hadith of the Prophet (ﷺ): "Look at those who are below you and do not look at those who are above you, for it is more suitable that you do not look down on the blessings of Allah." (Bukhari & Muslim).
Fear of missing out happens when we flip this Sunnah and only look "above" at what others have. This episode is about flipping it back so we can see our own blessings again.

In this heart-to-heart, we are exploring the beautiful, often forgotten deed of having Adab toward your ownself. We live in a world that constantly demands our energy, but as Muslim women, our first priority is honoring the Amanah Allah has placed within us. From the way we speak to ourselves in the quiet moments to the sacred boundaries we set around our time and privacy, this episode is a gentle invitation to stop being your own harshest critic and start treating your heart with the Rahma it deserves. We are diving into practical ways to protect your peace, silence the noise of comparison, and find deep contentment in the journey Allah has uniquely written for you. Grab a cup of coffee or matcha and join me for a soulful reminder that being gentle with yourself is not just self-care, it’s a beautiful form of worship. *disclaimer: the reminders in this podcast are a reminder to myself foremost before it is shared with you*
