Why Disability Is a Dealbreaker for Most People? w/ Rabia Khedr
Manage episode 492655600 series 3565222
What happens when love meets real honesty, deep faith, and a few assumptions that need challenging? In this episode, we speak with Rabia Khedr, a blind Muslim woman, community leader, and mother of four, whose story flips the narrative on what it means to marry with a disability. From confident conversations with her future husband to surprising acceptance from her in-laws, Rabia's journey breaks barriers and stereotypes. This episode asks you to listen a little closer, not just for inspiration, but for the assumptions you didn't know you had.
