Softness is Not Weakness (part 1)
Show notes
Assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh my dear sister,In this episode, we begin our series, “Softness Is Not Weakness: Lessons From the Women of Islam.”In a world that can make us feel like we need to be harder, louder and less sensitive to be strong, I want to explore a different kind of strength, the strength of a woman whose heart remains soft because it is anchored in Allah.In part 1, we will talk about the lives of Maryam AS and Khadijah RA and reflect on what it truly means to be soft without being weak, gentle without being powerless, and feminine while carrying immense strength.A reminder that softness is not something we need to grow out of. Sometimes, it is one of the most beautiful forms of strength Allah gives us.
