MuslimMatters

What Kind of Man will Marry your Daughter? | Siraaj Muhammad

Episode Summary

Have you ever tried watching an old sitcom years later and found yourself identifying more with the parents and less with the teens? I find myself in this position now as a father of two daughters. I went from identifying with the guy trying to get the girl while moving past the crazy dad to being the responsible father who protects his girls from men who want to take advantage of them.
