Mommying While Muslim
Mommying While Muslim is a one of a kind podcast where American Muslim moms share their experiences to raise second generation kids. Having experienced both pre and post 9/11 America, they're acutely aware of the unique challenges their families face on top of the regular messes that all moms share. Mommying While Muslim is a space to take back their stories, and tell those no one will air on the news or portray fully or fairly in the media. Host Uzma Jafri is mom first, careerwoman second, and global citizen at heart. She meets taboo topics head on because she wasn't allowed to do it growing up, not at home or at school and work. Her aim is to better her immediate household, community, and her momsisterhood the world over by telling the truths sometimes people don't want to face or to hear. Not everyone has these privileges, and she is eager to learn as well as share her own experiences. Always looking to give back, MWM finds women and families who need a mic because no one needs a voice; they just need an opportunity to speak. Besides tough social issues, MWM tackles political ones because when laws affect kids, we're coming for them as well as the ones who make them! There's no lane that doesn't get taken here. Along the way, MWM recruits momallies for Muslim Americans who have been inordinately targeted for the last 20 years. True moms know that ALL our children deserve to be safe, loved, and happy, and we bust every yellow brick on the Islamaphobic road to make sure they all are. If you like good trouble, this one's for you!

Epidemic of Muslim Porn Consumption
Like almost every episode this month, there’s explicit content so please be mindful of tiny ears within listening range.
Dr. Madiha Tahseen from The Family & Youth Institute joins us today to discuss what The FYI research has learned about porn consumption in the Muslim American community, its effects, and how to prevent it. There are some super surprising facts to learn today, not the least of which is a spike in Muslim porn viewership during the pandemic, but shocking to us: religious kids watch porn, too.
This is neurological issue as well as a behavioral issue, so please listen in to find out how to help Muslim children and family members avoid the path to porn addiction. The first step is to listen to this episode, and the second, per Dr. Tahseen is DON’T FREAK OUT (loosely translated). No Kitty Catty about it ;).
What are porn consumption tells, resources if porn is a problem in your Muslim household, treatments, and prevention? It’s all in this episode and the Shownotes on your podcast app.
Dropping at 6pm EST tonight on Apple podcasts, Stitcher, iHeartRadio, Amazon Music, ask Alexa, or click on our link in bio. Share this episode with your momcrew to add to their mommying toolkit!
