Book for The After Maghrib 2026 Event: https://www.aftermaghrib.com/book

In this deeply moving episode, we sit down with sister Maya Azzawi, a SEND advocate in our community, as she opens up about her journey navigating her son’s autism diagnosis and the unexpected way it brought her closer to Allah. Maya speaks candidly about the emotional weight families carry behind closed doors - the grief, the guilt, the love, and the unwavering hope that rarely get spoken about in our community. We explore the stigma around disability within the Shia community, why so many families feel unseen, and how cultural expectations often silence those who need compassion the most. Maya shares what she wishes people understood about raising a neurodiverse child, the barriers individuals with disabilities face in our mosques and social spaces, and the small but powerful ways we can create more inclusive, loving environments. This episode had us in tears, and is one that will truly transform the way you perceive disability forever.Without your support we cannot any make of these possible, please consider becoming a monthly partner - https://www.aftermaghrib.com/donate

Featuring Fatima Sohawon - https://www.instagram.com/solaceinfaith/

As we enter 2026, we are joined by Fatima Sohawon, a Trauma-Informed Parent Coach whose work goes far beyond parenting. Fatima breaks down how we can set meaningful, aligned goals for the year ahead and why discovering our true purpose starts with tuning in, not looking outwards. In a time where social media shows us curated success stories and unrealistic expectations, pushing us to comparison, burnout and chasing goals that were never ours to begin with, Fatima gives us practical strategies to filter out this background noise and approach goal-setting with a more self-compassionate and focused mindset.

If you’re ready to step into 2026 with a clearer, gentler and God-centred approach to self-improvement, this episode is for you.
