About this episode
This hiatus replay features Shaykha Tamara Gray, founder of Rabata, an online institute for and by Muslim women to educate themselves in Islam. She’s also an experienced mom who has a lot to share with moms about allying with their kids as part of their mothering.
Mic drop moment 32:36 when Shaykha Tamara reminds us about the etymological relationship of the words “umm” (mother) and “imam” (one in front of whom we study, or leader), but on a lighter note at 44:15 “Shaykha Tamara: I am green beans!” Serious butterflies and chills in this episode, so don’t miss it!
Tune in at 6pm EST and share with a momsister in search of female scholarship. Remember to pray for those memorizers of Quran and scholars we have lost in the past several months, in G@z@ especially, due to a siege that was 100% manmade and 100% avoidable.
