About Honest Tea Talk
with Aliyah, LaYinka & Sumayah
Inspired by Jada Pinkett-Smith's 'Red Table Talk', 3 Muslim women have set up a platform to speak openly and honestly, giving viewers an unedited insight into the minds and life of Muslim women. Honest Tea Talk brings deep and often unspoken topics to the table to lay down our masks and start much-needed discussions about matters related to Muslim women and the ummah at large.

As a revert, I am so thankful for these talks because I have zero Muslim women to talk to. I don't feel so alone now.
Ohh sister reach out for me whatever you are. Please dont feel lonely. I love to chat and Allah will be with you
@Carrie Marie.Bismillah I begin.I read your comment after having viewed the video Honest Tea Talk.As a new revert,I had a smile for you as I pray for your continued guidance and protection from any harm.Take your small steps and God willing you will land in success and know you have a world wide community across the globe supporting you!
if you need to talk, you can reach me via email. ajibolaahmeerah@gmail.com
Right I feel you ✋😭
Same!!! I live in a small town and this is my girl time.
This show needs to be on TV.
100%
I agree
CZcams is T.V
Agreed upon!
@@JohnSmith-yo8cy Hey, it's _better_ than TV, and more informative too! Less propaganda, obviously! Especially the independent news channels 📰📺😘 all raw facts. Good shit.
As someone who is trying to revert in an unreceptive environment living at home with my parents because my disability does not allow my complete freedom of movement. Your talks are a haven for me and an ideal for me to strive to towards whilst learning about our religion Allah SWT and our blessed prophet Muhammed PUB. You are examples of sisters I always wanted but never had. Thank you for all you do for the Muslimah I may not be considered as a part of it yet but one day I hope I will be much love.
jessie 0123chin May Allah make it easy for you and soften the hearts of your folks. You can embrace Islam whenever. May Allah bless you with companions and friends to help you!
@@LaYinkaSanni oh me too sister that comment touched me i hope the criticism does not discourage you sisters i love watching you love from Denmark
@@LaYinkaSanni Thank you for your support. I love my parents. They saved me. When I was in so much pain my blood pressure rose so high my doctors disregarded the fact that I was just 15 and pumped me full morphine (which I was allergic to) and all sorts of opiates just keep me numb; because they couldn't bear to see me in so much pain it was my parents who saved me. For nearly two years my mom stopped working and my dad retired because I didn't sleep for more than two hours each day. I was always curious even as a child I asked too many questions and I got my faith from my mom. However, I started losing it in the early years of my illness. Strangely two years ago I just started looking into Islam I don't why. I just did and then I started falling in love with it. I don’t have a masjid or a mosque or even a friendly neighbourhood Muslim. I just have my self the lectures I see on the internet talks like these and Allah SWT (who is my greatest comfort and my greatest champion) but when I tell my parents that I respect their opinions and thank them for setting me on my journey to Allah SWT and they just… It almost breaks me. I love my parents, but Allah is my creator, their creator and the saviour for the world. Islam is my future I just want my parents' acceptance but they see Islam as evil and no matter what I say they don’t believe me which isolates me from them in the most important way.
May Allah continue to make it easy on you.
jessie 0123chin Alhamdulellah (all praise and thanks be to Allah) HE is indeed guiding you dont feel alone or lonely,He is in your heart and around you surely He will make it easy for you ,just Trust Him .i really mean it . Believe it certainly and you will witness miracles happening hopefully.may Allah soften their hearts as well and grant them deep understanding ❤️.
Your Friend is Allah and His messenger always .even if you dont have anyone to support you now .🌹
Note: keep on being kind and merciful to your parents you dont know but that might help in softening their hearts.💐
Now that I know this kind of open talk is possible for Muslim sisters, I keep looking for more and wondering why it isn't on high demand?
Me too
Gulshan Nematova these sisters are perfect for this show.My opinion
Because people are out like a light after working 40+hrs!!
Just would like to react what Layinka said about the sister who wore no hijab and still proved to be very much attached to Islam that many of us don’t have that liberty to wear the hijab and lead fulfilled active lives. In France; where I live, the equation is almost impossible. I know that some sisters started their own companies in order to keep hijab, but not everyone is an entrepreneur and it’s not the general spirit in this country anyway. So please bear in mind that we’re out here, bare headed, and strongly attached to our faith and passionate about Islam.
I can't always wear hijab either. God judges our hearts! We are not on a stage to perform like trained monkeys for the approval of other humans. We live for God.
I love this show. It has really helped (and is helping) me, as a convert, in answering many questions that I have as I conduct myself as a Muslim woman. This show is so necessary and Inshallah it continues for many more seasons.
I personally got benefited alot from this wonderful platform so sister in Faith please continue doing it because it's globally needed and I believe it's bringing huge transformation in viewers mind and consciousness.
May Allah enble you to continue doing!!
Beautiful sisters with their raw face, like any normal sister! The intelligence is amazing and inspiring too!
Islam gives me all I need alhamdullilah that is 100% true
Shout out to you sisters for analysing why the sisters that are negative. You did it beautifully. I hope to meet you one day. You guys are amazing. Keep going sisters.
In more ways than not, you are like the women of the past in your pursuit of enlightening, teaching, and talking about real issues. Alhamdulillah.
SubhanAllah. This touched us deeply.
You guys are so needed, you have no idea the postive effect on a muslim womens mental health. The ajar with these talks for you ladies I hope is immense.
I was hesitant of sharing this channel with my family and friends but this episode really gave me all the answers. I shouldn't be afraid to agree with open mindedness in Islam.
Yes of course it's taboo but that is only bc it's new. And that's just with everything. I feel like this show has given my thoughts a voice and I'm ever grateful to you sisters ❤️
May Allah grant you all success and continue to grow your channel to a wider audience. It is much needed.
Sending love and Du'aas your way x
Everyone should give these beautiful sisters’ videos a like and a comment so that their engagement goes up and more people see them in their recommendations! ❤️❤️❤️
So proud of you guys. Muslim women really need these type of talks.
I think certain people get confused with the idea of perfecting ourselves and therefore expect this specific version of perfection. It’s like an instagram version of Islam in a way, like the way we see someone’s perfect home but not the pile of ironing in the corner, Islam perfects your character but never expects perfection. Khadijah herself was a very strong woman, there are so many examples in the qura’an of feminism but people take things the way they want to see it.
I cannot wait. Sisters, you help so many people with this series. May Allah bless you for your efforts... 🌷

I was once talking to a good friend of mine may Allah bless her! I was telling her that I feel bad for not having the skills ( attitude) of a pious woman! she looked at me like ... what do you mean by that, and she continued by saying to me: Islam is not a religion wich creat robot, it´s a religion that allow us to be the best version of our self, ofcorse with boundaries...!>> SoubhanAllah by watching today episode I feel like hearing the same things with an other terms.
May Allah bless us, guide us, make us atteined our best self by making our pleasure aligned with what please HIM soubhanahouwataAllah.
May Allah forgive all the Muslim!
Islam is like between 2 valleys, a balance, theres corrupt structure like yudaism, or no structure like atheism, like how judeo marxists sweep tyranny over morally divided atheist china. crypto judeo paul made bible more atheistic with lawless man worship. its said ONeness of Lord = ONess of Man under a good functioning law of balance and empowerment and creativity on a strong foundation!
I agree. Living Islam makes us the best version of ourselves. It's an on-going process. SubhanAllah.
No other code, religion, ism, system does this.
I moved to a different country after I got married. With no one embracing islam in the way we did back home in England. I was really craving deep conversation like this with keeping Allah SWT in mind. I put your show on while I'm having a cup of tea and i feel that I'm having tea with my friends. You have been a dear friend in my lonely times and I make dua Allah rewards you abundantly. Thank you for being a friend when I needed it most

HONEST + TEA=Honesty. Geddit geddit ?
Honesty Talk😉🙌
I was practically nodding and even simultaneously uttering the same thing with these sisters. I feel comfortable listening and watching this show. It does have a good impact on me....❤
I’m a woman in my forties and still find your talks beneficial. I learn something new about myself every time I watch your talks. May Allah reward you.
This series really benefits me in so many ways. I listen to this when i travel and it just improves my mood and prepares me for the day. Especially for women just knowing that someone knows and understands what ure going thru is enough to keep us going..thank u for ur sisterly support..

I really like this conversation..it seems like I am sitting with my friends and having a good talk which concerns our practical life....❤
I just discovered your channel and I can't tell you how much I admire you ladies . This is what being a Muslim and a feminist means to me , being proud and adherent to your faith and at the same time not letting social norms stop you from having a voice, opinions and goals that you go after,. and not thinking that you have to imitate non Muslim women to do so, because the reality is Islam gave our rights and our values along time ago.There are a lot of shows out there hosted by non Muslim women and they discuss women issues and their points of view, and even though they are good and you can relate to certain things, but we needed this. I also think that the rest of the world needs to see this, for those who don't know any thing about us other than that we dress modestly, they need to know that Muslim women are also smart, beautiful and strong. And that Islam actually aims to lift us higher . Great job ladies . I pray that Allah gives you success in life and much more reward in Paradise ISA .
As Salaamu Alaykunna
I was excited to see that season 2 is available. These types of conversations are very necessary for our communities. During every episode I was saying to myself wow!! these same problems plague our ummah around the world. The first step in tackling the problem is to talk about it. I pray that you ladies continue to be blessed in your efforts because it is a great need.
Yaay for layinka bringing out the tea this time 😄 season 3 and 4 with sumayyah and aliyah doing the honours inshallah 😄👏👏👏 God bless everyone's efforts on this show. It's brilliant. Sumayyah, more podcast episodes too, please! 😊🙏🙏

Masha Allah HTT is one of the best life changing videos I've ever encountered through my entire life and I've truly seen I was need for change and move on from where I was stuck for many years.together with some videos I've watched alxamdolilah made me practice self love and also being gratefull to almighty SWT and you can't believe how my life had changed and how my prayers were accepted by Allah in a such immediate time and also how my connection with Allah and with those around me changed to the best that I ever thought of.
Thank you my sister's you were my door to changing my life and practicing islam in much better way Alxamdolilah for making you easy for this discussion and please continue for making these videos they'll really make a huge impact on other lifes in a way that you can't expect♥️thank you sumayah,layanka and aliyah😍
I too think it's about unhealed trauma - self-betrayal and disconnection from the self as a result of childhood trauma where one was taught that being yourself is not safe, because one's needs weren't met as a child, didn't feel seen or heard which led to the belief that 'something is wrong with me', because as children we can't come to the conclusion that it's the parents who are lacking, since we depend on them for our survival, we believe it's us that there's something wrong with, which leads to internalized shame. So maybe it's a projection/externalizing of resentment towards people who are being their authentic selves, not betraying their Self and speaking their truth? Maybe it can be a lesson to see what this brings up for us. Not intending to blame anyone here.
I like your comment and idea. Most if us were raised same way. Personally I happened to be one. It's very hard to realise your parents are lacking when you are young. But as you grow up and Allah makes you independent you get that intuitive and feeling ,some choose to nurture it and others shut it down then later on externalize/project it on others. rn am in the process of nurturing that intuitive making sure am not hurting my parents or anyone and insha Allah I got hope one day I will chance to travel abroad and meet this beautiful souls, have conversation with them.i enjoy their talk. It's part of my therapy. I always pray for them. May Allah S.W bless you forever.
ALLAHU AKBAR THEY ARE BACK 😭😭❣ MAY ALLAH PROTECT YOU AND YOUR DEAR ONES
MashAllah indeed Islam has empowered us the only thing putting us loaded is our cultural baggage.jazakumullah kheir sisters.these talks are motivating

I love these videos!! Hopefully you'll make a lot more and release them early, cant wait
Welcome back sisters, I am so happy you are back, you have no idea how you have impacting so many people.
Absolutely fantastic. Couldn't have put it better myself, no one can understand the struggle except for our own Muslimahs and so we need our sisters to put their voices out there. Only Allah sees our struggle and the pain we go through. May Allah make our suffocation in society easier.
HTT is so beneficial and educative! Jazakumullahu kheiran for the amazing work you're doing ya ukhtis ❤ May Allah bless you abundantly. Ameen Ya Rab.

Maasha Allah I am a new subscriber, I enjoyed it .well done sisters much needed topic
Thank you that's the first step to fix ourselves is to be real and honest keep up the good work sisters💓
Loved the episode mashallah! My only comment is that we as an ummah really NEED to sincerely FOCUS on improving our own selves. First and always starting with our relationship with Allah, cultivating and nourishing it daily. Also doing our part in bringing the ummah together by bringing our best selves to be real brothers and sisters aiding and uplifting each other. In my circle of sisters we are always talking about these issues you alk have addressed publicly and it's right about time that it got out of our living rooms and kitchens and phones to a place where we could come and tackle these issues. First step is awareness.
Asalam Aleikum, i agree with you, i mentioned that in my notes.
7,00 Jazak Allahu Khayr, Islam has given what we need and balance, Look at Prophet Muhammad peace and blessings on him and Khadijah Radiyallahu anha!
8,30 - knowing how to disagree in Islam is good. bringing up 4 mathhabs, good point & even 4 mathhabs were salafi - Read Sheikh Albani's Book Prophets's prayer as you see him, he collected their quotes on how they are the means to the Sunnah and follow any hadith they may have missed on a topic that they may have missed as long as its in the right context.
11,20 - unhealed stuff due to bidah, we can refer to the Sunnah, when you follow an imam without a link to the sunnah we divide! if its not haram or normalizing haram and in right context why oppose it i guess.
13,30 Live the same in the din but not the same in dunya i guess. Very good points, Din is for all times. example before ppl used wagons now we use cars. Mother/Sisters before were scholars too, Aisha Radiyallahu anha, teachers of ibn Taymiyyah!
I would say same method but different (material) means INsha Allah is what you meant.
23,20 - yes extremism can push ppl away from the din same way too much differeing can weaken and push away (don't be too strong or weak i guess good deed is like being between 2 valleys), AS long as their Aqidah and Manhaj is strengthened it can help them in these fiqh issues! As long as someone isn't mis repping the din, we should recall Mother Aisha Radiyallahu anha said if the first thing that came down was don't do zina or not drink the ppl wouldn't leave their sins but the first thing was the call to Tawhid and judhement day to soften hearts!
25,20 - good points, i agree! Its too bad some mess up in the base as well! Make duah the way of saved sect prevails even more!
26,00 - First disagreement, Remember Adam Alehas Salam is Muslim,
WE are humans and Muslim first at the same time, we are born innocent & on fitrah and the hadith says all children of Adam make mistakes so I get what you are saying on the second point not first though! And yes Ibn Qayyum said a sin can make someone remember Allah, not a justification of course.
27,30 Masha Allah...
28,40 - Humility, good, me too. good points on not seeing the past and future.
Islam is compassion (& strength) , yes.
Humility before Allah is most important!
Jazak Allahu Khayr, May Allah give us beneficial knowledge good provisions and accepted actions and give us death upon Iman and life on aiding and following Manhaj salaf! Amin!

From the bottom of my heart, jaza kala khayr. I'm about overcome some hurdles (in sha Allah) and its lovely see good people succeed Allahuma barik. Your outlook on things is needed.
I truly feel like I’m sitting with you sisters over tea. When I first came across the channel, I wasn’t an in-tune...but I believe it had a lot to do with going through my iddah at the time and not being in the space where I was ready for everything being shared...but now, a year later...here I am working from home and I thought to start watching from season 1. I watched the whole season in one day while working. I am so grateful to Allah for all of you for these more-than-needed conversations. Jazakhallah wa Barakallah.
Love you sisters . May Allah accept and bless your endeavours and make it of benefit to you and everyone watching , in this life and in the hereafter...... Been waiting patiently... mashaAllah TabarakaAllah and I pray to Allah that He grants this program a continuous success so as long as there is benefit even to one single soul ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Another amazing episode..

I hope you continue the good work and you continue discussing the hard and "tabooed" topics you guys adressed in season 1.
