In this episode, we’re talking about something a lot of people feel but rarely say out loud — jealousy between friends, envy, and the pressure to compare ourselves to others, especially when it comes to relationships.

We dig into how social media can make things worse — from feeling left out to seeing everyone else’s “perfect” life and wondering why ours doesn’t look the same. We also discuss the reality of the evil eye, and how oversharing online can sometimes bring more harm than good.

You’ll hear honest thoughts on:
 • Why jealousy can show up even in close friendships
 • How comparison quietly steals our peace
 • What to do when envy creeps in
 • Protecting your blessings from the evil eye
 • And what Islam teaches about guarding your heart

This is your reminder that everyone’s journey is different — and that peace comes when we stop looking outward and start focusing on what truly matters inside.

Tune in for real talk and practical reflections.

A Father’s Journey: From Seeking Knowledge to Raising A Daughter

In Father2AQueens' first ever podcast, we sit down for an intimate conversation about growth, faith, and the quiet ways life prepares us for the most important roles we’ll ever have. 

He opens up about his journey to seeking knowledge, how learning Arabic became a turning point in his life, and how the trials he faced were actually shaping him to become the father his daughter would one day need.

We talk about what it truly means to be present—not just physically, but emotionally—for our daughters, and how that presence builds the foundation for their strength, confidence, and sense of self. He shares heartfelt reflections and advice for fathers trying to show up with purpose, and for daughters learning what it means to be cherished and seen.

This episode is a tribute to the beautiful responsibility of fatherhood, and a reminder that even in our hardest moments, we might be preparing for something greater than we can imagine.
