Nobody knows her real name. But this "Uncontested Pirate Queen of the Western Mediterranean" certainly earned her title: the Sayyida al Hurra, the Free and Independent Woman. From child refugee fleeing the Spanish Inquisition, to ruling Governor of Tetouan, to the Sultana of Morocco - Sayyida was never one to follow the path society had laid out for her. Author Laura Sook Duncome helps us uncover the mystery of the one and only actual Pirate Queen.

We also cover how to start your healing journey which includes therapy and, when appropriate, medication, and most importantly the need for support in overcoming the effects of abuse.

Welcome to episode 86! We are celebrating our three year anniversary of the show with a topic that kicked it all off for us: a kickass female pirate. In this episode we meet al-Sayyida al-Hurra, a queen of her city-state of Tétouan in present-day Morocco. Due to a lack of formal navy against the might of the Portuguese and Spanish fleets, she created one out of privateers and pirates. Her ragtag crews terrorized the European ships and the plunder from them gave her city unprecedented wealth. For this episode, Laurel is flying solo but Kt will be back along with a special guest for episode 87 and our final episode of season three! *~*~*~*~*~ The Socials and Patreon!

In this episode, we explore Surah al-Furqan (25), verse 74 of the Noble Quran, where Allah responds to believers' heartfelt supplications for righteous spouses and offspring who bring joy and promote piety and virtue. We focus on the life of Umm al-Momineen Khadija bint Khuwaylid (peace be upon her), the beloved wife of Prophet Muhammad (blessings of Allah be upon him and his family), whose unwavering support and devotion exemplify the essence of this verse. Khadija's significance extends beyond her role as the Prophet's wife. She was the first person to embrace Islam and played a pivotal role in its propagation, earning her the title of "Umm al-Mu'minin" (Mother of the Believers). Despite facing immense hardships, including economic difficulties and social ostracism, Khadija remained steadfast in her faith and support for the Prophet and the Muslim community. Her legacy serves as a timeless example of faith, resilience, and compassion, inspiring generations of Muslims worldwide. We also draw parallels between the verse under review and the life of Imam Ali (peace be upon him), who exemplified the Quranic principles of commitment to family, seeking divine assistance, and aspiring for moral and spiritual excellence. Practical tips from today's reflection include a commitment to family, seeking divine help in upbringing, and aspiring in prayer. As we reflect on the teachings of Imam Ali (peace be upon him), let us strive to emulate his unwavering commitment to family, reliance on divine assistance, and aspiration for moral and spiritual excellence in our own lives.

Als Kind wurde sie 1492 aus Spanien vertrieben, Jahrzehnte später führte Sayyida al-Hurra vom heutigen Marokko aus eine Flotte von Korsaren gegen die Schiffe der Europäer. Sayyida al-Hurra führte ihre Stadt Tétouan zu wirtschaftlichem Reichtum - der auch auf Kidnapping und Versklavung beruhte.

Our Deen, Islam, is complete and whole and we adhere to this way of life with so much pride and honor. But then there are some who act with a dangerous concoction of zealotry, ignorance and a lack of wisdom that start's to exclude other Muslims. The vicious cycle of sectarianism begins and not even a mere hint of difference is tolerated. As we stand at the cusp of the new Hijri year, we seek to heal what unnecessarily divides us. Join us today to be inspired by a legendary descendant of Rasulullah, an immigrant in a new land that was newly blessed with Islam, a true healer of sectarianism.
The Story of Sayyida Mariam's A.S. - Mufti Yusuf Moosagie by Radio Islam
﷽ Illumined by the prophetic soul and nurtured by prophetic knowledge, our Lady Nafisa is a culmination of the excellence of prophetic inheritance, in lineage and scholarship. Until today, the minaret of her magnificence calls to us, her legacy leads us, and her spirit solaces us. If her virtues were to be distributed upon the women of the world, they would render them all saints. May Allah's pleasure and peace be upon her.
From Ching Shih, a Chinese pirate who presided over a fleet comprised of some 80,000 men (Blackbeard had 400!), to Anne Bonny who famously ran away from an arranged marriage to don trousers and brandish a pistol in the Bahamas, to Sayyida al Hurra, an Islamic queen who ruled the Western Mediterranean, these women are often forgotten by history. Now, this edgy, wow-worthy illustrated book shares these daring women's lives and proves that they have made their mark in pirate lore and the high seas. Each pirate profile includes a dramatic original poem presented against a backdrop of gorgeous full-color art by award-winning illustrator Sara Gomez Woolley. Each profile is followed by fascinating information about the real life and times of these daring (and dangerous!) women. Vetted by the world's leading pirate experts and historians, this book is a cool and edgy gift. It's also perfect for any curious kid who dreams of adventure and for parents who are eager to show their tweens and teens that history is more diverse, daring, and surprising than what is typically found in textbooks.

Sunday March 20, 2022 After covering the first tragedy in the "Year of Sadness," the death of Abu Talib, this episode discusses the second and third tragedies: the death of Sayyida Khadija and the response of the Thaqif tribe in Ta'if when the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) went there to invite them to Islam. It also explores his return to Mecca and his effort to present Islam to the outlying Arabian tribes during the Hajj season, which led to him encountering a small tribe from Yathrib who would come to play a significant role in the history of Islam: the Khazraj.
This week's internationàle destination is North Africa, by way of the Iberian Peninsula. Sayyida al-Hurra, who is known by that name even though it's not actually her name (it's all explained in the episode don't worry), was a refugee from Granada who helped makeover a ruined city, then was named its governor, and also hung out with a very famous (alleged) pirate!!

Continuing with our theme of pirate queens, we take you back to the early 16th century in Northern Africa where we take a closer look at the life and reign of Sayyida al Hurra, the last woman in Islamic history to hold the title al-Hurra or Queen. After fleeing the Reconquista in Spain, Sayyida's family would settle in Northern Africa as refugees. As they worked to unite their fellow refugees to create a unified Morocco, an informal navy of privateers assembled to serve up revenge against the Spanish and Portuguese forces that drove them out of their homeland. And Sayyida al-Hurra is the driving force behind this battle for control over Morocco and the Strait of Gebraltar. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
Sayyida al-Hurra -- which translates roughly as "Lady who is free and independent" in Arabic -- was born as Lalla Aicha bint Ali ibn Rashid al-Alami. Aicha was queen of Tétouan from 1515–1542 -- and she was a pirate queen. And she is considered to be one of the most important female figures of the Islamic West in the modern age.

A Timeless Role Model for Humanity
We begin this class with an overview of historical and contemporary representations of Sayyida Bilqis in pre- and non-Muslim traditions, observing some examples of the decline in the way she is portrayed, particularly over the past century. The second part of the class focuses on the Qur'anic verses of her story with Nabi Sulayman AS in surah al-Naml. We see the majesty and humbleness of Nabi Sulayman, the deep intelligence of Sayyida Bilqis and the sensitive dynamics between Prophet and creation. Most importantly, we see how light became transformed to illumination in the process of guidance and the discovery of true faith for this most blessed woman seeking the Straight Path. Finally we ask ourselves: What are the blinding lights in our lives that prevent us from seeing the true nature of things and how they really are? What are we seeking that actually stops us from finding the truth? What is Sayyida Bilqis really leading us to in her role as one of the most revered Queens in human history?
What does the story of Sayyida Zulaykha and Nabi Yusuf alayhi salam in the Qur'an really tell us about women, passion and acting on it? In this episode we explore the events of the attempted seduction as described in the Qur'anic text, and examine three interpretive methods for understanding those events. We look at classical tafsir literature, poetry and modern feminist attempts at interpretation about women and passion and ask: Are these interpretations really misogynistic? Really? Do modern feminist interpretations of the Qur'an really see those events in the way they are intended to be understood? If these verses are so 'anti-women', why did al-Jami write an 8000 line poem on the love between Sayyidna Yusuf and Zulaykha? Why do some feminist interpretations of Sayyida Zulaykha make the case that a woman's sexual "agency, autonomy and authority" are so praiseworthy, when it resulted in the imprisonment of an innocent young man ? We also consider how to apply the methodology of spiritual purification to renew and fix our distorted ideas about women and female empowerment, then look at two brief examples of wise women and how to use our feminine gifts with wisdom by putting them in their rightful place.
Alhamdulillah this class on the woman of the Hajj - Sayyida Haajar - coincided with the first day of the 10 days of the sacred month of Dhul Hijja - the month of the Hajj. We discuss how Sayyida Haajar became part of the family of Nabi Ibrahim (Alayhi salam), we look at some 17th century European artwork depicting her 'banishment' to the desert. We talk about the deep meanings of the details of her story and her foundational role in establishing one of the pillars of the greatest earthly and cosmological pilgrimage of the Hajj. We finish our discussion with some reflections on how the Hajj and the Sacred House. the Ka'abah, connect us to the chronology of the universe through various events in ancient history and to our big future in the afterlife in which we hope to be amongst those who are blessed with witnessing the Divine Countenance eternally.
This class takes us on a journey from the creation of men and women (our forefathers Sayyidna Adam and Sayyida Hawwa on them be peace) and the establishment of the principles and practices of their relationship in the metaphysical, unseen world, to looking at the consequences of nonadherence to those principles and practices in the contemporary world today. We consider some definitions and an explanation of what 'Metaphysics' is, then we examine aspects of the Quranic verses about Sayyidna Adam and Sayyida Hawwa that exemplify that in the the dynamic between men and women. Finally we look at some of the issues that concern women on the straight path, and compare them with the conflicts and confusion that modern feminism has brought us. Please note: This week the question and answer session is included, as it is a continuation of our discussion in the class and raises important issues that many of us might have thought about before. It begins at 1 hour 12 minutes into the recording.
The story of Sayyida Asiya provides several opportunities to examine the lives of the many women in the story of Nabi Musa (AS), and we study the Qur'anic verses and hadith which address them all. This class also engages with surah al-Tahreem and the stories of the six women who are mentioned in it, and how it is a very important surah about the family and fealty to the Straight Path. We conclude by examining the three Prophetic diagrams that were mentioned in Episode 2 and how we have come a full circle in our understanding of how they integrate and what place the four best women we have talked about so far occupy with regard to those diagrams. We also ask ourselves which path do we have fealty with...what ideas and systems of thought do we think will help us achieve our goals and aims in life, and to what extent do they agree with the Straight Path of Islam? *Apologies for the sound quality of this recording as it is not the best.
Before exploring the explanations of the events and meanings of the life of Sayyida Maryam, the Mother of 'Isa may peace be upon them both, we look at the what storytelling is and its role in the Qur'an. We also examine some of the scholarly arguments about whether Sayyida Maryam was a prophet or not, and how we should approach understanding her story from within our contemporary, intellectual milieu.
Our brief study of the life of the leader of the women of the Ummah on earth and in the celestial realm focuses on how to connect with her rank and emulate her in our daily lives. But to do this, we need a sound way of understanding her life story. What framework of understanding do we apply to find what we need from the events in her life? What are some of the events in her life that we can directly relate to in our time? *The opening salawat translation is courtesy of muwasala.org
In this class, we explore and analyze three distinct yet interrelated topics: A Prophetic educational methodology which includes a specific hadith on the four best women in Paradise. Ancient Arabia: Contexts and Contradictions. We discuss particular concepts in the social, cultural and economic context in which Sayyida Khadijah peace be upon her was born and lived before the advent of Islam. This includes the two extremes of venerating the female on the angelic level and engaging in femicide from fear of poverty. Where is the 'middle way' of the fitra, the primordial human disposition in this context, and do men really hate women? Lessons from the life of Sayyida Khadijah al-Kubra, peace be upon her. We look at several aspects of her history, including how she was the first Believer, how she nurtured this new religion in its very difficult early years, at her role as a facilitator in its flourishing and how at a late age in her life she became the most perfected exemplar of true faith and certainty.
Remembering Sayyida Zainab (RA), the daughter of Sayyidina Imam Ali bin Abi Talib (RA) and Sayyida Fatima Zahra (RA). Her Urs is on the 14th of Rajab. When she passed away.
