“Give a hungry woman a fish and you feed her for a day; teach her fishing and she will never be hungry again.”

I passionately love to teach, and I am motivated to help sisters for the long term. My goal is to provide a much-needed space for muslimah investors where they can transform their financial lives and more — most importantly, empowering them to invest in a halal way, because this is the biggest blocker preventing them from entering the financial world.

I have a background in finance both academically and professionally. I hold a Master's degree in finance and accounting, and I worked as an accounting and tax advisor as well as in an investment fund. This allowed me to deeply understand the theory while at the same time being experienced with taking care of the finances of private and entrepreneurial clients.

However, the key to my successful investing coaching is my personal journey — having dealt with a lot of financial stress, having found my way out of it, and now having a clear strategy for building financial security and freedom. Alhamdulillah, my life completely transformed into being fully at ease with my finances, and that is what I want for my sisters too.

I quickly became a trusted advisor regarding finances within my friends and family, and started offering online and local workshops for other sisters interested in the topic. My students have started or restarted their financial investing journey after years of blockage, and successfully stepped out of their comfort zone. Teaching halal investing options was the biggest game changer, as this is where the sisters' true concerns lay.

If you are looking for this transformation too, sign up for my programs or reach me through my email. I would be thrilled to empower you on that journey. InshaAllah.

The team

The sisters behind
Her Islamic Finance.

Soukaïna

Marketing Manager

As the Marketing Manager at Her Islamic Finance, I'm at the helm of crafting high-level marketing strategies, much like a conductor guiding an orchestra. My focus is on ethical marketing that aligns with our values and engages our audience meaningfully.

My journey spans Education and Marketing, enhanced by experience with leading global brands, allowing me to bring a thoughtful approach to our marketing efforts.

I develop ethical marketing strategies, analyze social media trends, and use insights to create impactful campaigns. I'm also a Canva enthusiast, turning visions into designs with ease and flair.

HIF's commitment to empowering women through financial education is a major inspiration. I joined with the goal of deepening my own understanding of halal Islamic finance and sharing this life-changing journey with others. Why keep the good stuff to myself when I can invite others to experience it too!

Kadi

UK Network Manager & Speaker

I lead the partnerships effort at Her Islamic Finance, building our UK network from the ground up — forging relationships with grassroots organisations, influencers and industry players. I also run our UK events, connecting Muslim women with the tools to take control of their finances. My ultimate goal is to help make HIF the leading educational platform for Muslim women in Europe.

My journey spans investment banking, private equity, VC and private credit. Studying and working in finance has armed me with an analytical toolkit, sharpened by public speaking and a habit of constant learning — and along the way, I fell in love with financial literacy.

I joined HIF because I'm deeply passionate about the power of financial literacy to change women's lives. I want to make halal investing easy and accessible to this community, and right now my focus is figuring out how to bring that knowledge to the nearly 1.9 million Muslim women living in the UK (2021 census).

Afra

UK Network Manager

I am a finance professional with a background in investment, financial risk management and Islamic finance. I hold a BSc in Finance and have built my professional expertise around financial markets, investment principles, risk assessment and Shariah-compliant financial solutions.

My focus — I am a certified Islamic finance executive, with a particular interest in the application of Islamic finance principles within contemporary financial markets. My experience includes working as a Financial Advisor at Germany's first Islamic fintech, where I advised clients on financial solutions and developed practical insight into the emerging Islamic fintech sector.

My background combines a strong foundation in conventional finance with specialised knowledge of Islamic financial principles and risk management. I have also completed the Bloomberg ESG Certification, adding to my grounding in ESG factors and their relevance to financial analysis and investment decision-making.

My professional focus lies at the intersection of investment, financial risk management, Islamic finance and financial technology, with an emphasis on providing informed, structured and responsible financial guidance.
