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!

Resolutions & Reparations
🥳🥳🥳Happy New Year!
2025 was hard for me. I'm so grateful for a new year, new slate and I pray yours is even better than I pray for you all.
There's a short "episode" today. Big kudos to @faizifortexas running for Texas Comptroller. Do BIG things, y'all, even if you have to do them scared. 🙌🏾🙌🏾
⚠⚠ BUT a warning to those in the DMV: Swipe left to witness those closest to Allah, who can't communicate with words. And then listen to what I reported about @rnacoordinates behavior and their refusal to make reasonable, long lasting reparations via @muhsen.
Send them a message and find other planners who don't just do their jobs, they care about and practice DEI. Our faith requires that we be DEI, and of course, the West has colonized the term for our way of life. We are all accountable to Allah, especially when we wrong the most vulnerable among us.
No, I don't call out women, but I have zero tolerance for those who reject sincere naseeha (advice) and dig deeper into their ignorance. As always, send me your sincere naseeha and feedback. Tune in now and next week. 🎧
