Raising Righteous Muslims through Arabic

People often assume I've always been fluent in Arabic — but the truth is, our journey started with pressure, self-doubt, and constant mistakes.In this solo episode, I'm opening up about how hard it felt to begin teaching Arabic at home, the emotional weight of not feeling “good enough,” and how I slowly shifted from striving for perfection to embracing connection.If you've ever felt overwhelmed or unsure in your own Arabic journey, this episode is for you. You're not alone — and you don't have to do it alone either.---------If you liked this podcast, take a minute to rate it 

In this episode, I sit down with Dana, the founder of DanaLand Academy, to talk about her personal journey with Arabic—even as a native speaker—and the challenges she faced reconnecting with the language.We discuss the lack of engaging, child-friendly Arabic resources, and why simply teaching the language traditionally isn't enough—kids need to live it, feel it, and experience it.Dana shares how she brings Arabic to life through creative, fun, and meaningful approaches that allow children to build a real relationship with the language, beyond just letters and vocabulary.

Ramadhan is a time of transformation, and for Sofia, it has been a deeply personal journey of rediscovering faith, seeking knowledge, and strengthening her connection with Allah.In this heartfelt episode, Sofia opens up about growing up without a strong Ramadhan spirit, how she had to embrace Islam again and truly experience the beauty of emaan. She shares a deeply emotional period of her life, including the struggles that led to her wearing the hijab—a true miracle in her journey.We also reflect on the privilege of knowing what Ramadhan truly is, the power of the last ten nights, and how learning Arabic transformed her relationship with the Quran—from reading translations to understanding its deeper meanings.This is an episode of raw honesty, growth, and deep spiritual reminders.Follow Sofia on Instagram @Sofia.coaching.---------If you liked this podcast, take a minute to rate it 

Ramadhan is a deeply personal journey, yet it's also shaped by the places we live and the people around us.
