This pandemic kick started my little endeavor of creating a podcast for Muslim kids . As an educator and mother of 3, I gravitate towards all things literacy. My passion project, Once Upon A Crescent was a meant to bring enrichment to Muslim children’s lives through engaging and entertaining stories catered to Muslim kid experiences. However, along the way, with the right kind of nudge and help from family and supportive sisters, I was inspired to transform and grow this endeavor into a long term mission, in Sha Allah. I hope to live out my dreams as an educator that positively contributes to the Muslim world, with this podcast being just the beginning of that mission. I hope to cater to my Muslim kid audience and enrich their lives with meaningful content for future projects, in Sha Allah!
One of those projects is my vision to create a safe space for Muslim Kids to engage and connect with each other ONLINE. Imagine a website with a forum that is user friendly for Muslim kids, filled with educational and enriching academic and Islamic content. Imagine kids learning the deen up close and personal, with peers, mentors and teachers and engaging in a whole network of invested parents who pour into this “online village” to raise bright , God-Conscious inspired youth, who will one day positively impact the world around them. Why not create a social media platform specifically for Muslim kids? One that doesn’t hold the dangers and drawbacks of Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, etc, but instead holds the advantages of the connectedness that Muslim kids crave today. If you have some expertise to offer and want to be in on the process of bringing this idea to life, then please feel free to reach out to me. My email address is info@mrshashimi.com.
