Unveiled Voices is for Black Muslim women navigating faith, life, and becoming in a world that often asks them to shrink. Hosted by Anifah and Mariam, we have honest conversations about identity, ambition, healing, and learning how to live in alignment with who Allah created us to be.
We talk about the real stuff. Work, burnout, growth, doubt, joy, and choosing deen even when it costs approval. These are real reflections drawn from lived experience.
This space is for women at every stage of their journey who want to feel seen, supported, and reminded they are not alone. New episodes drop eve
Everything You Want Is on the Other Side of Obedience to Allah ft. Motunrayo Abdul-Mojeed
Everything you want in this Dunya and the Akhira is on the other side of obedience to Allah."
In this episode of Unveiled Voices, we sit down with Sister Motunrayo Nurah Abdul-Mojeed to unpack what it actually looks like to stop practising Islam on autopilot and start building a real, grounded relationship with Allah.
What we explore in this episode:
Breaking the Autopilot Cycle: Moving past "I pray because my parents said so" and learning who Allah actually is.
The Hijab Journey: Dealing with the fear of people thinking you're "acting brand new", unlearning Western beauty standards, and why good friends make all the difference.
Modesty vs Trends: A real conversation on modest fashion, why hijab is not just a style choice, and accepting that some outfits are just not for us.
Culture vs Faith: Moving away from fear-based parenting ("Lo lekewu"), making Islam a daily lifestyle, and how Motunrayo stood her ground on a music-free wedding.
The Quran as a Life Manual: Handling low iman, finding comfort in Surah Ad-Duha on hard days, and spotting Shaytan's tricks when you feel like giving up.
Faith in Business: Why Motunrayo started a modest bridal styling service so women do not have to compromise their values on their wedding day.
Whether you are navigating your own hijab journey, struggling with routine worship, or striving to put Allah at the centre of your life, this conversation offers an honest, practical roadmap back to your Rabb.

Trading Shame for Answers in Women’s Health ft. Dr. Muti'ah Badruddeen
“The idea that modesty means silence has added an added layer of shame.”
In this episode of Unveiled Voices, we sit down with OBGYN and founder Dr. Muti'ah Badruddeen (DeenProgress) to trade shame for answers when it comes to our bodies, our health, and our wellness.
Dr. Muti'ah opens up about stepping out of the clinic and onto social media to bridge a glaring gap: the absolute lack of safe, accessible reproductive health information for Muslim women.
We confront the cultural taboos that force generations of women to figure out their cycles and intimacy completely in the dark, dismantling the lie that modesty requires us to stay silent.
We dive deep into the spiritual and physical reality of our bodies, from unlearning the heavy emotional guilt carried around menstruation to reclaiming an Islamic connection that is spiritual before it is ritualistic.
Dr. Muti'ah strips away the stigma with clinical clarity and warmth. This is an invitation to stop whispering, own your health journey, and find your blueprint for confidence in the fiercely independent women companions of the Prophet.
