Video Description

In this episode of WISE Women with Daisy Khan, host Dr. Daisy Khan sits down with award-winning author Samina Ali to uncover her shocking medical crisis that nearly claimed her life during childbirth. After delivering her son, Samina suffered multiple strokes, heart attack, and complete organ failure due to undiagnosed preeclampsia, falling into a five-day coma that left doctors convinced she would die. What happened next defied all medical predictions as she rewired her brain, relearned basic functions, and discovered an unexpected spiritual awakening that connected Islam, Christianity, and Judaism. Ali shares the brutal reality of medical racism, breaking taboos around illness and death, and finding divine purpose in life's darkest moments. This conversation reveals how writing her memoir became the key to rebuilding her neural pathways while transforming her family's faith journey and offering hope to anyone facing seemingly impossible health battles.

Where Muslim voices rise, bridges are built, and history's unsung heroines reclaim their light.

WISE Women with Daisy Khan gives voice to Muslims sharing their experiences with anti-Muslim bias, educates non-Muslims to become upstanders against discrimination, and spotlights extraordinary women throughout history whose contributions have been erased. We reclaim faith as a force for good while building bridges between East and West—transforming fear into understanding, one conversation at a time.

In a world where misinformation silences too many voices, we break through the noise by creating space for authentic dialogue. Muslims share their experiences, grievances, and hope for a better future, turning pain into a powerful conversation that demands to be heard.

Our episodes are designed to educate and empower non-Muslims to reject stereotyping and discrimination when they see it. We believe understanding begins with listening, so we challenge disinformation with knowledge and empathy, equipping people to become courageous upstanders.

We revive the legacy of luminary women who shaped civilizations yet were erased from history's

pages—a reminder that women have always been shapers of civilizations, despite attempts to erase their contributions.

At its heart, WISE Women confronts the distortion and weaponization of religion for political gain, reclaiming faith as a force for justice, equality, and empowerment.

This isn't just another podcast—it's a bridge between communities taught to fear each other, between the world as it is and the world as it could be. We're opening hearts and minds, building the understanding our divided world desperately needs.

Welcome to WISE Women. Where wisdom meets courage, and voices become bridges.
