In this episode, we speak openly about the realities our communities often pretend don’t exist grooming, manipulation, child marriage, and the ways power and silence allow harm to continue. We break down how predators operate, step by step, why victims often don’t recognize it, and how cultural and religious denial can protect the wrong people while leaving young girls vulnerable. Expect honest, unfiltered conversations about boundaries, accountability, and the systems that fail to protect the most vulnerable. We explore the emotional and psychological impact of grooming, the shame unfairly placed on victims, and how to create safer spaces for the next generation.

This episode isn’t just about listening it’s about speaking. If you’ve experienced or witnessed these issues, we encourage you to share your story, add your voice, and help break the silence. Your experiences matter, and together we can start changing the narrative, holding power accountable, and protecting the next generation.

In this intimate episode, I open up about my mother’s final moments with cancer and the most beautiful memory I hold of her. Through her death, I learned one of life’s hardest and holiest lessons: that self-love is not selfish, it’s sacred. I reflect on the prophetic teaching where Allah’s Messenger ﷺ reminds us to care for ourselves first, then our families, and then others with what remains. This episode is a gentle reminder to every eldest daughter the caretaker, the peacemaker, the one who always holds it together that you cannot pour from an empty cup. It’s time to return to yourself with mercy.

This isn’t an easy conversation.

Polygamy is one of those words that makes people flinch especially women.

It’s been used to wound, to justify, to control.

But it’s also been deeply misunderstood.

In this pisode of The Seeking Covering Podcast, I sit with two women a first wife and a second wife to talk about what it really feels like to live inside that verse everyone quotes.

We talk about heartbreak and faith, jealousy and surrender.

About what justice looks like when love is divided, and what faith feels like when your heart is breaking.

It’s raw, it’s uncomfortable, and it’s real.

This isn’t about defending or condemning polygamy.

It’s about listening really listening to the women who live it.

It’s about the weight of being tested by what’s allowed, and the courage to find Allah in the middle of it all.

The Seeking Covering Podcast where faith gets personal.
