In this episode, I share how my relationship with God transformed after walking away from Christianity and, later, embracing Islam.

I didn’t leave Christianity for Islam. I left because something felt wrong. The worship felt like performance. The Trinity never made sense. And the emotional highs of church didn’t bring lasting connection with God.

Years later, Islam gave me the clarity I had been searching for: one God, no middlemen...

In this episode of Beyond The Shahada, I sit down with Crystal, a Muslim content creator and UK healthcare professional who’s made a name for herself on TikTok by turning hate comments into dawah, clapbacks into clarity, and stereotypes into strength.

We talk about:

• How she handles online hate with grace and sarcasm

• What it's really like being a visibly Muslim woman on the internet

• The pressure of being seen as the “perfe...

This week, I had to take a breath. As a mum, a revert, a creator, sometimes it all becomes a little too connecting and draining. So I’m taking my own advice, and hitting pause.

In this special re-upload, I’m sharing one of my earliest episodes that feels even more relevant today: the difference between feeling connected to Allah and actually being connected. It’s a reminder that stillness isn’t distance. And that taking time for yo...

What if the hardest part of converting to Islam wasn’t letting go of your old beliefs - but the way people treated you after?

In this deeply personal episode, I open up about what it really felt like to leave behind my life as a Christian and embrace Islam. I talk about the backlash, the accusations, the grief and the surprising peace I found through it all.

If you’re a Christian who’s ever wondered what Islam actually teaches without the media filters, without the politics, and without the cultural confusion - this episode is for you.

I’m not here to debate. I’m not here to convert you.

I’m just here to share the truths I never heard as a Christian. Truths about the Quran, Jesus, Mary, women’s rights, and the very God you already believe in.

Because Islam isn’t a new religion. It’s t...

What happens when you grow up deeply rooted in Christianity, but your questions go unanswered? In this episode of Beyond the Shahada, I take you through my personal journey, from Lutheran beginnings, Catholic school, and Pentecostal revivals… to reading the Bible cover to cover, discovering shocking truths about Paul, and ultimately, finding Islam.

This wasn’t an emotional decision. It wasn’t a rebellion. It was years of research, ...

Today’s episode is a little different, because I’m not alone. I sat down with the legendary Aussie Niqabi - Alexis: Campbelltown-born, single mum of three, founder of eco-business The Bin Chicken, and the woman who’s been making waves (and causing trolls to melt down) on TikTok with her niqab and razor-sharp Aussie humour.

But behind the viral videos? There’s a deeper story: a promise to Allah SWT after a brutal custody battle, a l...

When I left Christianity, it wasn’t out of rebellion. It was because I finally understood what I believed and what I didn’t.

This episode is a personal look into why I left church culture behind, how I found clarity in Islam, and the backlash I faced from people who once claimed to love me.

We’re talking about blind faith vs true understanding, judgment vs sincerity, and why choosing Islam was the most thought-out decision I’ve eve...
