Some love stories don't happen overnight. This one took five years, two continents, a flat-out rejection, 30 nights of Ramadan, and a letter that changed everything.In this episode, Will and Sana pull back the curtain on the five years between when they met and when they finally got married — a chapter they've never fully unpacked before. From the night Will looked Sana square in the eyes and told her they were going to get married (she did not see that coming), to the repeated proposals that went nowhere, to the moment a mother slipped a letter into a bag of food that brought a grown man to tears — this episode goes deep.They talk about what sabr actually means (hint: it's not just sitting and waiting), why bettering yourself is the only move when everything else is out of your hands, and the ripple effects of five years of patience that neither of them could have predicted.Whether you're a young person struggling to get married, a parent navigating a situation like this, or someone who just needs a reminder that the hard seasons are doing something — this one is for you.In this episode:* The night they met — and why Will knew instantly, Sana did not* The first proposal rejection and what Will did next* Working the oil rigs, 40 days of Tabligh, and four months in Bangladesh and Pakistan* Sana's journey to wearing hijab — and showing up to her graduation in it* How Sana's father went from occasional prayers to building a masjid* The Adhan that changed everything* The letter from Sana's mom, written in the last 10 nights of Ramadan* Advice for young men and women in the same situation* Why Will says he would have rejected himself tooCONNECT WITH NOORISHED:🎙️ All platforms: https://anchor.fm/salehfamilyspeaks📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/Salehfamily📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/noorishedpodcast🎵 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@salehfamilyTHE SALEH FAMILY:🔗 Everything in one place: https://salehfamily.komi.io📸 Sana: https://www.instagram.com/sanasalehofficial📸 Will & Sana: https://www.instagram.com/salehfamilyofficial🎵 TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@salehfamily▶️ Subscribe: http://bit.ly/SSBsubscribeOUR PRODUCTS:🧕 Hijabs — https://www.lalahijabs.com | Code: NOORISHED (15% off)🌍 Malaysia Relocation Guide — https://www.noorished.comWORK WITH US:📩 Collabs: [email protected]📩 Business: [email protected]

In Part 2 of our story podcast, we dive into one of the most challenging yet life-changing chapters of our lives—how Will got laid off during COVID, how we navigated the uncertainty, and how we built a business from nothing. From struggling to make ends meet to creating content online and eventually finding new opportunities, we share the highs, lows, and pivotal moments that led us to start over in Malaysia.

In this episode of our podcast, we take you on a deeply personal journey—how we met, fell in love, how Will embraced Islam, and the incredible path that led him to travel in search of knowledge about the religion. We also share the heartfelt story of how we navigated cultural differences and ultimately convinced our parents to support our marriage.

Most people know who Shaun King is, but who is he REALLY? We had the honour of sitting down with Shaun and his wife Rae and discussed their life story, how they met, how he became an activist for humanity and how they ended up in our living room for this incredible podcast.

In this week's podcast episode, we decompress our thoughts about living in Malaysia and what it really did for our physical, mental and spiritual health and well-being.

In this podcast, we interview the creative mind and founder of the popular Muslim children's show Omar and Hana - Sinan Ismail. We discuss how the show came to life and what happened to new episodes as it has been years since a new episode has been released. We also discuss the dangers of screen time for kids and what he is doing to change that.

In this episode, we explain what we have been up to since the last season of our podcast. Including having our fourth baby (our miracle rainbow baby) as well as traveling to half a dozen countries and ultimately deciding on coming to Malaysia to jump start our new life.
