Description

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!
