Will Perry represents the men of the masjid for us today and boy is he gracious about it because we really dug into him: Where are all the men when it comes to DV in the Muslim community? Good news! The urban legend of the Muslim American Posse is well and alive, so sisters, you have your soldiers available to you if you’re willing to call on them. Brothers, build more posses.
Unique POV we gain from Brother Will who takes us upstream to remind Muslim men, and in many cases teach for the first time, their role as protectors of women in Islam (if you want to scream, “We don’t need protection,” please relax and take a decaf. No bigger feminists than us here). MIDC works with many middle aged men who have never been married and have to re enter the ummah after decades of incarceration and trauma that fuels the dysfunction of some marriages. This happens to Muslim and non Muslim FYI.
How do we prevent another Muslim mom from dying when we can prevent it?  Find out what MIDC is doing and help them continue this work through the community’s trauma after Alwiya's untimely death, and ask how to support the affected family. May Allah SWT grant her the highest level and protect her daughter from any harm seen or unseen. Ameen.

Hope comes on anonymously today to discuss her experience of emotional abuse–the scars that NO ONE SEES. Find out the walls that women in this situation run into: from perpetuating cycles of emotional abuse, cultural toxicity and the dearth of healing resources (including finances) that don’t permit them to leave.
Have you ever wondered if what you’ve experienced is abuse? Hear what Hope has to say and understand that what an abuser considers benign, he (10X more likely to be “he”) will make her believe it is, too.
If you need help, call the National Domestic Hotline just to talk and explore what you’re experiencing: 1-800-799-7233. As always, you can DM us or email [email protected] if you don’t know about the culturally competent, Muslim-friendly local hero organizations near you.

This is a special REPLAY of Madiha Schader’s experience of hiding the painful details of her emotional abuse from family and friends. The cultural reasons she did this are very clear in her story. She’s not unique, especially because her lived domestic violence wasn’t always physical. Mental, emotional, verbal abuse, financial/social isolation, witholding necessary care, and unreasonable demands from a place of control that endanger a person’s psychosocial wellbeing are equally suffocating, and a matter of life and death. Madiha’s freedom came through her own son and her body. Find out how her closest friends identified what was happening and supported her until she was able to decide it was time to save herself. If you know someone you suspect is in danger of physical violence or mental oppression, help her using the resources listed below. Don’t wait until your phone rings with the worst news ever; text her and let her know you’ve got a listening, non judgmental ear and shoulder for her. If you’re someone who is in danger, having kids WILL NOT change an abuser towards you and might direct abuse toward your kid(s).
