    The Rawdah Struggle

    HAPPY THURSDAY COUSINS!!! In the final part of our Umrah experience, we talk about all things Madinah, the resting place of our beloved Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him. We also shared some tips on how to get into the Rawdah because ma sha Allah, as time goes by, Madinah is only getting busier and busier and you may face some difficulties in getting an appointment. We also discussed our time in Jeddah, the flight home (someone had a boujie experience lol), and what it's been like being back in our routines. We hope our 3 part series has either inspired you to plan your umrah and Madinah ziyara trip orrrr has made you feel nostalgic of your own past trip. Either way, we ask that Allah allows us all to return to perform Umrah, visit our Habib and perform Hajj every year! AMEEN! So grab your snacks, turn us all the way up while you clean, chill, or drive, and hang out with us like always. We appreciate every single one of you cousins – your comments, your DMs, your support.

    HAPPY THURSDAY COUSINS!!! This week we’re joined by our good friends from Coffee Break Podcast, and trust us…this episode goes everywhere. We talk day-one podcast struggles, what it’s like building a platform from scratch, awkward run-ins with listeners, and all the behind-the-scenes chaos that never makes it on camera. We also get into how they chose their name, what their families really think about the pod, and the art of learning to filter yourself (or at least trying to). Plus: editing glow-ups, future plans for both our platforms, travel stories, and yes…unfortunately sad pet stories😭 Grab your snack, turn up the volume, start your chores or go for a drive — and hang with your cousins for another chaotic, wholesome episode.

    The Journey to Islam, Family, Creativity & Purpose

    HAPPY THURSDAY COUSINS!!!!!!! We have an incredible episode for you this week with a very special guest, Cornell Jones! 🙌🏽 This one is inspiring, emotional, and powerful from start to finish. Cornell shares how he first discovered Cousin Connection, how he learned about Islam, and the beautiful (and sometimes challenging) journey that led him to revert. We dive into everything from introducing Islam to your kids, to the responsibility that comes with being a Muslim creator, to the hesitations and misconceptions he had before converting. Cornell opens up about what reverting felt like, how Umrah changed his life forever, and what it was like telling his family he’s Muslim. There are so many gems in this conversation; giving dawah to non-Muslim family, getting married after two months (yes...TWO!), and the exciting projects he’s working on including a book and clothing brand. We even talk about how the hijab inspired him in ways he never expected. Grab your snacks, go for a drive, start your chores...whatever your Thursday ritual is, and tune in for a deep, heartfelt, and uplifting episode with the cousins. Thank you all for the love, support, and beautiful messages every week.

    Balancing Life and Social Media w/ @AyshaHarun

    HAPPY THURSDAY COUSINS!!!!!!! This week is a special one because we have the one and only Aysha Harun joining us on the pod!! 🎉 From celebrating Sara’s birthday, to the now-infamous Eggstatic fiasco, to the most competitive game night we’ve ever had — this episode had us crying laughing from start to finish 😂. We also get into how to properly pronounce R.I.S. vs RIS (don’t ask… we’re still confused lol), whether we might actually be dyslexic, Vine making a comeback (??), and the question everyone keeps asking… when is Aysha coming back to YouTube?! And of course, we end off with some deeper moments — learning how to live in the moment, realizing we’re officially in our 30s now (send help), and hearing about Zohran’s New York antics firsthand 😭. Plus, we answer a bunch of your questions at the end! Grab your snack, turn up the volume, start your chores or go for a drive — and hang with your cousins for another chaotic, wholesome episode.
