Episode Description
Hurunnessa Fariad of Sister Act podcast joins Zaiba and Uzma today to discuss how her marriage abruptly ended and under the most unique of circumstances. The video on this one is a must watch, so we’ve linked it below (YouTube) so you can see Uzma’s blooper. Poker face much?
We talk about abandonment, women led households as a more common situation worldwide and in America, financial stressors, facing and raising resilient daughters alone. Hurunessa is a pillar of her active Muslim community and a poster child for what true freedom of body and faith look like. Define “broken home,” do better for our single mom sisters who’ve been with their kids all the time way before this pandemic was a thing, get our divorced sisters remarried (in the manner of the sunnah that Muslim men don’t want to follow), and stop identifying ourselves by our marriage status! Our jobs are to not only break the cycles of trauma that lead to divorce but also to prevent the further traumatization of single moms after the fact.
For any single moms or moms in the middle of a divorce out there, let us know what you think and how we can help do better for you. Check out our links below for Muslim centered resources.
