Do you struggle to with boundaries with regards to family, husband, and in-laws?
How much would it mean for you to know that your decisions are in line with what your Lord wants?
How much would it mean for you to stop feeling like aspects of the Deen are against you and instead connect with EVERY hadith and verse?
Revival is to connect and ultimately – love – Allah and His Messenger ﷺ fully.
About the Course
This course will not only be paradigm shifting but life-changing, inshaAllah. Sha.Shaista will be teaching using hadith along with usuli principles and fiqh to understand and hopefully revive the spirit of Madinan society: namely the spirit of the female Companions; their spirituality, their boldness, their confidence as well as their peace, fulfillment and joy. The course will help you recognize and rid the non-Sunnah ideals in your life and help you plant and nourish Sunnah ideals. It will teach you how the Sunnah outlook on life and navigate life’s big issues within that framework.
It will cover life skills through the paradigm of the Sunnah. We will constantly delve into ahadith to see how rulings and general principles are truly enacted upon. It will be an in-depth study of ahadith related to family and household – all the while understanding these from a women’s scholarly perspective ie never going against principles and teachings of the Deen therein.
There are rulings/hadith we have heard or that have been used as a weapon against us/women. These issues need to be addressed so we can let go of any barriers that prevent us from loving Allah and His Messenger ﷺ unconditionally, the way we were meant to; that most sweetest love that is the only thing that can fill your heart and nourish your soul. This is the way of Madinan Society: unshakeable faith and unconditional love. Let’s revive that!
This course will show women how the Deen has their back; for you to know that Allah, Mighty and Majestic, wants for you eternal happiness and success. It will give you a glimpse of Madinan society, the strong women that the society bred under the auspicious leadership and Prophethood of our Beloved Master Muhammad ﷺ. You will be in awe of the beauty of the Messenger ﷺ, and inshaAllah grow in love for him and your Lord. InshaAllah this course will help you get closer to Allah by showing you the deep wisdom and care He has for His servants, male and female alike.
This course is unique. As someone with a strong fiqh and hadith background as well as familiarity with self-development and coaching, Sha.Shaista has developed this course to be a marriage between Deen and life-skills coaching. It will include self-awareness and self-development exercises to help women break away from what is keeping them from their true spiritual potential.

Testimonials
It removed wrong ideas I had (and didn’t know I had) about the role of women in islam, especially as wives. The stories increased my love for the Prophet sala Allah alayhi wa salam more… I feel I have more pride and “Izza” as a Muslim woman. —MA
The topics chosen for each week were holistic, relevant and really important. I liked the simplicity of your presentation as it made it easy to follow and understand. You dropped some amazing gems, and made it safe for us to share and feel heard. You were interactive and encouraged us to think for ourselves and make notes. Your teaching style is authentic and straightforward, you use language that’s understandable. I convinced my friend Sofia to join this course, she’s an Arab, I am a Pakistani but she I both still discussed found this course so beneficial and easy to understand. —MM; UK
I appreciate you explaining ahaadith from a woman’s perspective, it’s rare.
The stories of the Sahabat and going back to Rasuul Allah ﷺ for all things.
