Assalam walaikum loves! Whooo that's a title 😮‍💨 this episode is truly a vent to get everything that's been weighing heavy on me off my chest, and a discussion on the recent case within our Muslim community that has truly hurt so many people. I hope you can take something from it InshaAllah. Whoever you are, wherever you are - I'm so glad you're here, and I can't wait to grow with you along the way <3
