About this listen

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.
