In Pursuit of Knowledge

Let’s grieve Ruth Bader Ginsburg this week and talk about feminism as we end our month of Female Islamic Scholarship with Reem Shaikh. Reem is a graduate student at the Harvard School of Divinity who speaks to us about her singular path toward earning her position as a shaykha. Her goal is to provide the ummah with diverse voices in scholarship so that Muslim women don’t have their religion mansplained to them anymore. When women get and give information to each other, especially our most sacred knowledge, we protect our authentic traditions as well as the role of women scholars in Islam. Reem is #daughtergoals so say a mashaAllah during your listen.

How we ensure the preservation of Islamic American scholarship, particularly female scholarship, is explained and exemplified by Reem, who is inshaAllah one of many hopes and plans we have toward that future. Her pearls humbled your cohosts today, who have a new and much needed parenting perspective as a result of this conversation.
