What’s Going On Down There? Vaginal Health and Fiqh Rulings (1/2)

Sarah Hemeida & Sarah Ahmed

In this episode, we take a clear and practical look at vaginal health—covering important topics like yeast infections, urinary tract infections, bacterial vaginosis, discharge, and spotting. We also explore how these common experiences relate to Islamic rulings on cleanliness, ritual purity, and worship.

With expert insight on both medical and religious aspects, we aim to provide clarity on what to look out for, how to manage symptoms, and how to confidently care for your body. Whether you’re seeking answers about what’s medically normal or how these issues affect your spiritual practices, this conversation is designed to inform and empower.
