While travelling home on a busy train, I experienced a situation that left me feeling quite uneasy. A man was loudly expressing a lot of hatred, including comments about Muslims and Palestinians.

I found myself looking around the carriage, thinking: What would I actually do if this escalated and I became the target?

We often talk about reporting hate crime, but perhaps we also need to talk more about *practical ways to keep ourselves safe when we find ourselves in an unsafe situation.*

That’s why I think learning self-awareness and self-defence is becoming increasingly important for us as sisters.

🥋 Martial Arts / Self-Defence Taster with Daniyaal’s Martial Arts Academy

Insha’Allah, I’m attending the taster session on Wednesday 2 September at 6.30pm.

Daniyaal is offering a taster session, so why not book on and come along? It would be great to have a few An-Nisa sisters there together.

Saema and Asma would like to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us today for our workshop on Islamophobia and understanding your legal rights.

We had a fantastic turnout, with an engaged audience who contributed to some thoughtful conversations and meaningful discussions. It was wonderful to see such a strong community spirit in the room.

The conversation doesn't end here. Please take a look at the IRU website and follow their social media channels. They are an independent charity providing legal guidance and support to people affected by Islamophobia, and they do incredible work that deserves our support.

Thank you to Sajid and Jagdish from Himmah for joining us and for generously allowing us to use the Hub. Thank you also to Safdar for the delicious food that everyone enjoyed.

Finally, a very special thank you to Majid Iqbal and Eram Malik from the Islamophobia Response Unit for sharing their expertise, knowledge and time with us. We are incredibly grateful.

Thank you all once again. We look forward to continuing these important conversations and working together to challenge Islamophobia in our communities.

Our June Neurodiverse group meet up explored three qualities every mum already has, even if we sometimes forget:

• Perseverance – Hajar (AS)
• Trust in Allah – the Mother of Musa (AS)
• Dignity – Maryam (AS)

It was lovely hearing everyone’s stories & sharing a few laughs during our dysregulation scenario!

Today’s reminder:

Wherever Allah has written for your child to reach, trust that He has also chosen you to help them get there. 🤍

Our next meet up is Friday 24 July
