"I appreciated that someone could relate and that I could relate to other women who had a loss in their marriage. I would highly recommend this support group. My overall experience with Sister Tahirah is that she showed strength, professionalism, and enthusiasm! She made a sad topic filled with love as you move forward." Helena James ~ Kuwait
•To be a safe space for us to, cry, laugh, grow, heal and share ourselves unveiled through our healing process while honoring and respecting each other however we may show up.
•To hold space for each other to share in the memories of our beloved spouse.
Every year, about 700,000 women become widowed. This occurs at all ages and stages of their life journey. These women suffer more than just financial hardship—the emotional turmoil requires women to take the time and seek the support needed to recover through their grief.
At Hearts Connecting grief recovery department for Muslim Widows and Women of Faith Support Group, we know from personal experience how crucial a sense of sisterhood and community is to the grief recovery process.
I lost my late beloved husband on July 30, 2020, Imam Antar Jannah. He was the love of my life. As part of my grieving and processing of his passing, I joined a local widow’s support group, which allowed me to both support my own healing and learn what other widowed women go through. My peers got me through this, but because I was the only Muslim (and the only African-American Muslim woman in the group) I knew there was a need for more faith-based widow support groups.
Over the course of six weeks, sisters from all faiths and walks of life gather together to ponder and share on topics including:
-- Understanding grief and the grieving process
-- Stressors and anxiety in widowhood
-- Changing roles and relationships
-- Overcoming loneliness
-- Raising Children and Remarrying
-- The "next" chapter while remembering our men
-- Self-reflections and rediscovery
Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said: “The one who looks after a widow or those in need is like a warrior who fights for Allah’s Cause, or like him who performs prayers all the night and fasts all the day.” Sahih Bukhari
In this workshop, you will receive:
~ Emotional support as you heal and move through your healing process
~ Facebook community access to Widows for additional support
~ Hearts Connecting Widow Support Grief Recovery Workbook

Hearts Connecting founded Muslim Women and Women of Faith Widow Support Group in March of 2021. We provide an emotionally safe space for women to grieve and heal while growing through life after losing their husbands.
Our 2023 annual fundraising goal is $13,000 to serve widows. Alhamdulillah! In our Winter fundraiser, we crowdfund $3,375. For this campaign, our goal is $9,625. It costs $190 per widow to attend the 6-week Grief Recovery Workshop.
Hearts Connecting’s widow support group workshop is a judgment-free zone where we accept each other as we are. It’s also a safe space for widows to cry, talk, heal, and, most importantly, share what they are going through emotionally with their peers.
As part of the workshop, each widow receives a Grief Recovery Digital Workbook, and access to a private community support group on Facebook.
And that's where you come in...you can help these women needing grief support and healing by sponsoring their participation in our six-week widow support group workshop.
We need you to sponsor at least one widow by donating to our campaign.
Please reach deep into your hearts by donating to our Widows Support Group and share this campaign with your family, friends, and network. This is a movement that we need you to be a part of.
1. Focus directly on serving the widows by getting the word out and marketing to various Masjids and community based-centers about our support group for Muslims Widows and Women of Faith
2. Provide an emotionally safe space for an often forgotten group; the widows.
We do not charge the widows to attend the grief recovery workshops. We believe in social impact and giving back to those in need. So, although we are an LLC, we rely on Allah’s Grace through the help and generosity of brothers and sisters such as yourself to sponsor each widow’s healing journey.
Every Donor & Every Dollar Counts
Thank you so much for your support and donations. May you receive an abundance of rewards from Allah for your intentions, duas, and donations. Ameen!
