Deen chats with Husna – Details, episodes & analysis

In this episode I spoke about Ruqayyah Bint Muhammad (pbuh) and connected her story to how Islam Honors Daughters.

This episode was about Fatimah (r.a.). I pondered upon her knowledge, courage, strength and modesty.

In this episode, I talked about hijab and its true meaning.

In this episode of the Islam Honors Women series, we dive into the life of Khadijah (r.a.) — not just as the beloved wife of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, but as a successful, respected businesswoman who managed trade, hired agents, and led with intelligence and dignity. We explore how her example challenges common cultural beliefs that discourage women from working, and how Islam itself never restricted her ambition. With Qur’anic references, we separate culture from religion, reminding ourselves not to label something halal or haram without knowledge (Qur’an 16:116).

This episode is a reminder that Islam uplifted women from the very beginning, and Khadijah (r.a.) stands as a timeless symbol of faith, leadership, and empowerment.

Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah! I spontaneously decided to this podcast haha :)

I hope you enjoyed listening to this first episode. I know it was a very deep start but I have been thinking about this topic for quite a while now and wanted to share everything I found about this, as well as my own point of view towards this holy & divine marriage.

I have posted the visual version of this episode on my YouTube channel (Husna Jolay) so you can check that out as well especially if you are curious about my reactions when I was sharing my thoughts haha :)

Stay tuned for the next episode of season 1 of Deen Chats with Husna podcast. By the way, yes, I have named season 1 as “Islam Honors Women” because I mostly want to cover topics like Women in Islam.

Jazakallah khair for tuning in! May Allah bless you!

In this episode I talked about a very special, courageous and strong female sahabi Ummu Imarah. I hope you will benefit from this episode.

In this episode I spoke about Hajar (a.s.) & her legacy of Sa’i.

In this episode I spoke about Asiya (a.s.) and how her life is filled with lessons not only for us muslim women but for all muslim believers.

In this episode, we talk about Sayyidah Khadijah (رضي الله عنها) beyond the title of a “businesswoman.”

She was a woman of deep faith, wisdom, dignity, and purpose — whose wealth was a means, not an identity. Her success was rooted in sincerity, trust in Allah, and unwavering support for the truth. This episode reminds us that Islam does not measure women by productivity or profit, but by taqwa, character, and intention — and that true success is far greater than worldly achievement.

This episode is all about Asma bint Abu Bakr and her life.
