Manage episode 505232891 series 3688715
In the second episode of a three-part series, Ustadh Ubaydullah Evans sits down with celebrated author Umm Zakiyyah for an intimate and powerful discussion on her latest book, But Do You Feel Safe With Him?. Recorded live at Beni Adam, a luxury consignment shop in Pilsen, IL, nestled in a growing corridor of Muslim-owned businesses, this conversation explores emotional, spiritual, and relational safety within Muslim relationships and marriage.
Can men learn about manhood, respect, and accountability from a book written for women? Ubaydullah picked up Umm Zakiyyah’s book to understand women’s experiences—and discovered a mirror that challenges all readers.
In a time when meaningful dialogue is often lost to labels and polarization, this live discussion breaks through the noise. It is a space for honest reflection, healing, and growth—for both men and women.
