"It's always been my goal to spread the truth to the people. And I'm going to do just that."

- Junaidah This is a Malay name; the name Muhamad Razif is a patronymic, not a family name, the name Hajjah is a title given to Muslims who have completed the hajj, and the person should be referred to by the given name, Nur Junaidah. Hajjah Nur Junaidah binti Muhamad Razif (Jawi: حاجه نور جنيده بنت محمد رازيف), known simply as Junaidah Razif, Psy.D. (Jawi: جنيده رازيف), is a supporting character in the Big Hero 6 franchise. A Malaysian-American journalist and columnist for The Fransokyan Sun, she is a psychologist notoriously known for her in-depth analyses of various entrepreneurs. Her latest investigation leads her face-to-face with Alistair Krei, the CEO of the massive Krei Tech Industries.

She is portrayed by Indonesian actress Prisia Nasution.

Early Life
June was born Nur Junaidah binti Muhamad Razif (Jawi: نور جنيده بنت محمد رازيف) in Kuala Terengganu, Malaysia, to father Muhamad Razif bin Affendi and mother Siti Azizah binti Kamaruddin. Born to ethnic Malaysian Malay parents of Terengganuan descent, June's father was an accountant-turned-businessman while her mother was a masseuse. June was the couple's first child and the elder sister of siblings Hafizah and Yusoff. The family follows the Shafi'i school of Sunni Islam.

Muhamad and Azizah relocated to the Malaysian capital city of Kuala Lumpur when June was only four years old. Raised in a staunch middle-class Muslim family, June and her siblings were all enrolled in strict Islamic boarding schools. June and her sister, Hafizah, attended the Kuala Lumpur National Secondary School and began studying the Qur'an, Islamic scriptures, the Arabic language, and the Jawi script at young ages. In addition to Terengganuan Malay, she also studied the Standard Malaysian language and English.

Muhamad and Azizah highly encouraged June to don a hijab despite her unhappiness with the headscarf. Despite these restraints (or, perhaps, because of this), June found herself severely discontented with the Islamic lifestyle. Forced to assimilate among many other girls who were raised to the same expectations, June faced an identity loss/crisis as an adolescent and began questioning the teachings of the Qur'an, which would later lead to her agnostic world views. June subsequently found a profound admiration for her uncle, Zainal, who was a writer and civil rights activist. Her uncle's influence combined with her desire for uniqueness and identity led to June's interest in writing and journalism.

At home, June was closest to Hafizah and, arguably, her mother. In spite of their strict expectations, Muhamad and Azizah wanted to be good parents to their three children. As Muhamad was developing his own insurance business, he scarcely had time to spend with his family and preferred to work on his corporation. Because he was never around, June grew distant from her father and would resent him for his constant obsession with his career.

Personality
"Sharp, quick, and witty, Junaidah "June" Razif is a young journalist who's fast on her toes and an even faster thinker. Raised in the heart of Malaysian culture, she is known for her highly detailed columns and unexplained criticism towards businessmen – no one knows when or from where these feelings rooted. A gifted psychologist, June is notorious for her analyses of entrepreneurs, but she finds herself inexplicably caught in a dilemma during her latest dive into the life of Alistair Krei."

- June's official description TBA

Alistair Krei
"Oh, I know quite well how you businessmen think. And I can tell you're the type of person who's willing to cheat and cut through corners to get what you want. Don't worry, though, I've met many others who do the same. You're not all that unique."

- June on Ahmad Not much is known about June's relationship with her former love interest, Ahmad, but it can be inferred that she found him very attractive. June and Ahmad (who was of Indonesian heritage) dated during June's several years in Singapore – they attended the same university – but the couple decided to end their relationship upon June's decision to move to the United States. June still frequently and favourably references Ahmad's features when the topic of her "old boyfriend" is mentioned, which has become a "gag" of sorts.
