| Lessons from the Life of Sawdah bint Zama'a (RA) | 11 Sep 2025 | 00:32:45 | |
I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack. Not the end of a horror film, but the end of a troubling journey of work, life and love lost with a happy ending. Don't be scared. I owe you the completion of the Sahabiya Series, so here's this week's episode on Sawdah bint Zam’a (RA), the second wife of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. While it's hard to find English language information on her, it is possible alhamdulillah thanks to shayookh out there interpreting those texts for us. Tune in to hear the 6 lessons I learned from what I found, and how they help me mother and live right now. For Muslimahs today who are navigating faith, family, and societal expectations, this is a good listen! Links: 1. Mothers of the Believers Pt. 6: https://youtu.be/OcPOZd1edec?si=k0SfYDEttKzAowV7 2.

| Healthy Muslim Marriages | 28 Feb 2025 | 00:54:10 | |
Are we talking about sexuality and intimacy the right way? How we navigate these subjects can make or break our relationships; with our partners, and later on, with our kids if we don't learn how to be sex positive. Too often, these discussions are academic or purely rule-based, leaving little room for emotional depth, vulnerable connection, and the nuanced challenges couples actually face. In this episode, @coachmeganwyatt helps us explore emotionally intelligent thoughts and conversations about sexuality and intimacy. Her approach certainly sheds more light on how we understand marital duties versus rights, and how we spiritually connect with our partners. We also unpack some common marital challenges that cross her professional desk, from mismatched expectations to unspoken needs, and discuss where couples—and even community leaders—go wrong in addressing these issues. This is a conversation you don’t want to miss. Tune in now, and let’s start asking the right questions to have uncomfortable conversations. 🎙️💬 Links:

| SERIES Muslim Moms Overcoming Inferility: Muslim Moms and IVF | 28 Apr 2023 | 01:00:11 | |
| Rabia Rajab is a survivor of infertility and IVF 🌟. Call it mother's intuition, but she knew before the doctors did about how tough her journey was going to be and initiated a decade long trip that would make most of us cut and run. Certainly, the Force (and the 4th) are with her. 💰 The costs of treatments are not only financial, but as you'll hear, social and emotional as well. For anyone considering it, this is a MUST listen💕. 👨👩👧👦 Rabia and her husband did not have a supportive community of Muslims going through the same process. That's on all of us, y'all. That is not okay. We need to fix that by speaking up about infertility awareness and treatments🤝. Note: Make sure you swipe left. Tune in at 6pm EST on Apple podcasts, Stitcher, Amazon Music, or head to our website landing page and listen there. #IVFjourney #Infertility #MuslimsAndIVF #HopefulParents #EmotionalSupport #CommunityLove #FindYourVoice #notalone #muslimmoms #muslimfamily #musliminfertility Did you know you can send us a text?

| Muslim Moms’ Instructional Favorites | 30 Mar 2023 | 00:47:48 | |
Fahd Al Binali of IQRA Network joins us today to discuss his role in creating the platform to teach Quran and Islamic studies without children hating either or both. His specific interest in gearing education toward Western audiences is especially important because it focuses on application of these principles in students’ lives. This requires innovatively training and treating instructors in an organized way with accountability on all sides. IQRA fosters the relationship between teachers and students instead of the fear and dread that a lot of us experienced when learning Quran. We certainly didn’t have teachers with such integral preparation to engage Muslim American kids in our childhoods. Uzma’s experience with the platform has been exemplary and her son is busily memorizing Juz ‘Amma, angry at her for not doing so herself. IQRA’s created a monster! Listen to this episode for a free course offered by IQRA Network to one blessed listener, and the first person to get the code word to us via DM or email at salam@mommyingwhilemuslim.com will win.

| Muslim Moms’ Emergency Favorites | 24 Mar 2023 | 00:32:44 | |
@browndages co-founder Instisar Bashir joins us today to describe the product she created with her husband in order to provide POC with options to cover up their wounds with products that actually blend in with their skin. For too long, we’ve had to explain the mainstream bandaids when people can clearly see them on our darker skin when it’s really not relevant to discussions at hand. Can we just cover them up and move on already? Heal in silence! Find out how this mompreneur created Browndages with NO EXPERIENCE in creating such a product and ended up on Shark Tank. There they won the support of no less than 3 Sharks, including Mark Cuban, who committed his NBA franchise to wearing only Browndages. This is a terrific example of how to support Black owned businesses AND to learn how to pursue our mompassions.

| The Gender Health Gap Effect on Muslimahs | 21 Feb 2025 | 00:35:15 | |
Dr. Sadaf Lodhi OBGYN is back on the podcast this year to discuss the gender health gap and how it creates even more barriers for women, especially in marginalized communities of Muslim American women: from the Black community to asylees, immigrants, and refugees. Sick women don’t have the luxury of having sex positivity in their homes when their basic needs won’t be met, and are in fact sabotaged by the state. We talk about trauma, cell memory, cultural competency, and funding cuts that directly impact how we fare in the American pseudo-healthcare maze that’s hard to navigate when we DO speak English. No visit with Dr. Sadaf Lodhi is complete without talking about mindset on the path to unlearning guilt and shame, and embracing sex positivity. There’s also lots of good news on the horizon with Dr. Lodhi and we hope you catch it towards the end of this episode. Share it with a friend and let us know how you’re working on building your sex positive home. Links: 1. Find Dr. Sadaf Lodhi OBGYN on IG 2. Find Dr. Sadaf Lodhi on the web 3.

| Living Momsisterhood | 24 Nov 2022 | 00:57:06 | |
Dr. Jamillah Karim with academic qualification as long our wingspans joins us today to dispel several Muslim biases vs polygyny: she’s educated, she’s financially capable, she’s independent, she’ authoritative, she’s confident, and she CHOOSES polygyny as a way of life for herself. She is both frank about her support of it as a source for authentically loving and supporting Muslim sisterhood, as well as recognizing the role of jealousy in polygyny. She does an excellent job of weighing pros and cons aloud in this episode so if anyone has never entertained both sides of polygyny, consider doing it. Hear about how polygyny serves her spiritual purposes, which in and of themselves are enviable mashaAllah. Did you know you can send us a text? Feedback, questions, or recommendations welcomed! 1.

| BONUS Replay: But He Doesn't Hit Me | 21 Oct 2022 | 00:57:20 | |
This is a special REPLAY of Madiha Schader’s experience of hiding the painful details of her emotional abuse from family and friends. The cultural reasons she did this are very clear in her story. She’s not unique, especially because her lived domestic violence wasn’t always physical. Mental, emotional, verbal abuse, financial/social isolation, witholding necessary care, and unreasonable demands from a place of control that endanger a person’s psychosocial wellbeing are equally suffocating, and a matter of life and death. Madiha’s freedom came through her own son and her body. Find out how her closest friends identified what was happening and supported her until she was able to decide it was time to save herself. If you know someone you suspect is in danger of physical violence or mental oppression, help her using the resources listed below. Don’t wait until your phone rings with the worst news ever; text her and let her know you’ve got a listening, non judgmental ear and shoulder for her. If you’re someone who is in danger, having kids WILL NOT change an abuser towards you and might direct abuse toward your kid(s). Did you know you can send us a text?
