Supporting, protecting, uplifting, and even loving these women is part of our faith practice. We need teach that to Muslim men and the sons they are raising. — PolitiTweet.org

Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo

I am inspired by the mothers of the believers, the female companions of the Prophet (pbuh), generations of women Islamic movement leaders, and my sisters who fight alongside me. — PolitiTweet.org

Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo

You need to also raise your sons to amplify, celebrate, uplift, and support the women who are on the frontlines. We can’t do this work without our communities and families. — PolitiTweet.org

Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo

I didn’t say this to the man at the restaurant, but I will say it here in hopes that others who are raising their daughters to be activists and leaders will read it. That’s not enough. — PolitiTweet.org

People are willing to support it from a distance, support it in concept, but not quite so eager to support it in their homes, at the expense of their comfort or a daily home cooked hot meal. — PolitiTweet.org

Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo

This was harder. The path that Allah chose for me requires that I work long hours, putting my life and body on the line, to protect my community. It apparently also has an impact on how my courtships go. — PolitiTweet.org

Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo

He is a good man and was kind, but that doesn’t change the impact of what was said. This isn’t about him, it’s about our communities. Ask anyone to recount the exact words that are used when a promising relationship ends, and they won’t be able to. It’s hard. — PolitiTweet.org

Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo

He said, “I want my daughter to grow up to be like you but I don’t think I have what it takes to support your work as a spouse and I don’t want you to change for me.” What? How did that work? — PolitiTweet.org

Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo

I looked to my friends, how could this be? Why those words, why today? He couldn’t have known. Just a couple of days prior, a man I had met ended our brief courtship using similar words. — PolitiTweet.org

Zahra Billoo @ZahraBilloo

So I replied, “you’re too kind. Ameen! JazakaAllah khair. No, InshaAllah she’ll grow up to be better than me.” I hugged the kids, we took pictures, and they went back to their table. As I sat back in my seat, I almost melted. — PolitiTweet.org

“Sister Zahra? As Salaamu! I just wanted to meet you and introduce my kids to you. My family and I really appreciate you work. We make dua for you everyday.
