First Broadcast: 28 September 2015
More than ever before, it feels like Muslim women can have it all. A career, a family with children and much more. Some of our sisters make it look so easy, but for many others it’s a double edge sword. This episode of Questions discusses whether women can really have it all, or is the burden of responsibility heavier than ever? Fareena is joined by a brilliant panel of experts to debate how the reality of women has changed over recent generations, what the effects of that may have on manhood and the importance of women becoming main bread-winners.
