Synopsis
This book is about the
life stories of the Mothers of the Believers and 16 other Sahabyat who had been
given the good news of the paradise in this world by Prophet Muhammad (S). There
are good examples in the lifestyle of the Mothers of the believers and women
Companions especially for the Muslim women. It is necessary for all of us to
study the Seerah of these noble and fortunate women. Besides the Mothers of the
believers, the compiler of the book has included the description of those
sixteen women who had been given the good News of the Paradise in this world by
the Prophet Muhammad (S). Although the original book is in the Urdu language but
the efforts of the translator had made it more beneficial for the readers.
Publisher's Note
All praises are due to Allah the Almighty, the Lord of all that exists. May
Allah's peace and blessing be upon His final Prophet and Messenger, Muhammad,
his family and his Companions.
Darussalam is pleased to present this valuable book, 'Great Women of Islam, who
were given the good News of Paradise'. It was compiled in the Urdu language by a
great scholar and a compiler of Islamic books, Mahmood Ahmad Ghadanfar, and
translated by our Islamic sister Jamila Muhammad Qawi.
This book is about the life stories of the Mothers of the believers and sixteen
Prophet's women Companions. They were those pure and virtuous women of Islam who
were honored during the very lifetime of the Prophet with the prediction that
they would live forever in Paradise in the Hereafter.
All the Mothers of the believers were of very noble character and conduct and
pleased Allah so much that He sent special greeting for Khadijah (R) 'Aishah (R)
, had a brilliant mind and a remarkable memory, and had the distinction of being
the source of many Ahddith because of her long association with the Prophet. Her
knowledge of the many branches of religion like Tafsir, Hadith, Fiqh and
Shari'ah, her wisdom in interpretation, her mastery of the teachings of the
Prophet - all these qualities made her one of the most remarkable personalities
of the time.
Female Companions were very active in religion as well as in politics and
business. They were so courageous in the battlefield that their services like
giving medical aid to the soldiers, nursing the wounded on the battlefields, and
providing food and water to the wounded and thirsty can be found in history.
They spread the message of Islam and it is proved by many of the instances that
converted many of the disbelievers to Islam.
There are many more stories likes this that will encourage our Islamic sisters
to get more knowledge about such great women. I hope that they will study this
book thoroughly and try their best to follow these noble women of Islam.
Pray to Allah the Almighty that He grants them all the writer, translator and
editor and everyone else who participated by any means - the best reward in this
world and in the Hereafter, for having supported in the completion of such a
valuable book. Ameen.
