Before embarking on Islamic estate planning, she studied ‘ilm ul-faraid, Islamic estate planning with scholars from Al-Azhar University in Egypt and prominent American-Muslim scholars, including her father, Shaykh Muhammad Nur Abdullah. She has spent decades serving the Muslim American community in Washington DC, Indiana, St. Louis, nationally, and here in Houston where she has made her home the past 5 years.
She served on the board of the Muslim Student’s Association National (MSA National), the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), the Muslim Youth of North America (MYNA), and as an advisor to the Peaceful Families Project, which is devoted to preventing domestic violence, with a particular focus on Muslim families of diverse cultural, ethnic, and racial backgrounds. She also seved seven years as a working board member of her Islamic School in St. Louis and spent one year, establishing a new campus of that Islamic School.
Much of her work in the nonprofit sector, as well as her own personal law practice, has focused on creating a holistic approach to problems. She firmly believes that in helping a family address not just their legal problems, she is able to provide them the tools necessary to heal themselves, their children, their families, and their communities making us all stronger and more resilient.
She is a licensed attorney in both Missouri and Texas.
