We don't talk about hijab, why is that? In this episode, we talk about what hijab means to us, and why it's a topic we're hesitant to discuss. Hijab has been a booming topic lately from balaclavas to the french hijab ban, these issues got us talking amongst ourselves and forced us to have the conversations we were avoiding. Our thoughts? take a listen.

Is that the part two, the sister episode, the sequel of A Love Anthology? Why, yes it is! Hafsa and Istahil continue the conversations and ask their guests about how they perceive and experience dating. From finding someone you fancy to shooting your shot to first dates to dating apps. We got optimism, we got pessimism, we got straight up depressionism.

Tune in for a rollercoaster of an episode.

We're back after disappearing for a month. We decided to start with our 1 or 3 dates series early this year! 1 or 3 dates is our annual Ramadan series. This episode was sponsored by Ramadan & Juliette.

In this episode, we have Khadijah Thomas, founder of Ramadan & Juliette (a small Black Muslim-owned Ramadan decorations shop). She told us about the inception of Ramadan and Juliette and the importance of getting into the spirit of Ramadan. We are always hyper-aware of the Holiday (Christmas) spirit, but how often do we make an active effort to feel Ramadan before its arrival? We talk about that and much more.

CorOOONa vAYrus! We're nearly a week into self-imposed isolation and social distancing and we tired. Some of us are going into work as "key workers" and some of us are big babies complaining about relaxing at home (can you tell who wrote this bio?). Today, Hafsa, Ikran, Istahil and Umalkhair talk about what they've been going through. Hafsa and Umal provide insight into the inner workings of healthcare during this trying time. STAY HOME AND STAY SAFE LISTENERS!

Since we dropped the last episode, new feelings have come to light. Okay, not new feelings, more like re-discovered/UNCOVERED feelings. Hafsa's stressed and she feels like it's her duty to unburden herself onto Ikran- and by default you guys, our dear listeners! Listen to them attempt to unpackage those deeply repressed emotions and enjoy!!!

OUR MERCH IS HERE: www.abwaanchronicles.com/shop SEASON THREE FOLKS! And we're starting off with a bang! One of our most listened to, most loved and most critiqued episodes was episode 3 - are men trash? With it being an all women podcast, we thought we should revisit the discussion with a sprinkling of male input. We were joined by the ultimate twitter troll, Abdulkhaaliq, who explained why #MenAreTrash is unacceptable and should not be used. Hafsa and Istahil brought their A game and explained why they believe #MenAreTrash should not be offensive. Were you swayed by either side of the arguments? Take a listen, and let us know what you think!

Hadith on Purity - The man who went to Paradise for purifying his heart: Musnad Ahmad 12286

Hadith on being an arms length away from jannah but being of the people of the hellfire "... verily one of you performs the actions of the people of Paradise until there is but an arms length between him and it, and that which has been written overtakes him, and so he acts with the actions of the people of the Hellfire and thus enters it..."

*NEW SERIES!!!* Abwaan Shorts is basically going to be short filler episodes we release between our monthly/biweekly episodes. More content for your head tops. In this ep, Hafsa and Istahil are just venting about racist white people white-peopling and black folk with intrinsic self hate attempting the same behavior but failing miserably
