Hazrat Khadijah bint Khuwaylid, The First Muslim Khadijah, the first wife of the last Prophet of Allah and the first Believer, evokes a most extraordinary personality. She was, with Abu Talib, one of the two greatest supporters of Islam and the Muslims. She played a heavenly role in the history of nascent Islam. Exploring the gestation period of Islam, this biography focuses on the remarkable life story of one of the four greatest women of all time, one who wholeheartedly proclaimed her submission to the divine message delivered through the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). My respect, love, and appreciation for her grew considerably while researching and writing this book. Addressing her unparalleled devotion to the message of the Prophet, this book shines a light on a figure who is an ideal role model for all men and women, Muslim and non-Muslim alike.

This book tells the remarkable story of one of the most honourable women in human history. She was the daughter of the Last and the Greatest of Prophets sent to humankind. Personally trained and educated by the Prophet himself, she rose to prominence and garnered wider honour and respect in the early Muslim community. Despite being the daughter of the Last Prophet, her humbleness and down-to-earth etiquette became a paradigm for character traits for Muslim women throughout the ages. Her wisdom, perseverance, generosity, kindness, passion, modesty, and love for Allah and His Messenger made her a jewel of the Prophet’s household. Her entire life is a lesson for all Muslim girls and women to follow in her footsteps to lead a peaceful, happy, and successful life in the World and the Hereafter.

This is an inspiring story of the first female warrior in the history of Islam who not only fought at sea but was also martyred there. She had a deeply affectionate relationship with the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), who considered her a family member. In fact, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was foretold in a dream that she would be among those first Muslims to die at sea fighting for Islam.

Ghinwa Jawhari's debut collection is a meditation on the Arabic word 'bint' (???), or 'girl.' The girl in these pages attempts to reconcile an American identity as a "mite of the wooden house." At the onset of her "acned year," she is "polluted with breasts," suddenly aware of her body and its reaction to other bodies. In BINT, the "palate succumbs to pleasure-crested pricks" just as the din of tradition continues to conjure "a valley of mirrors." The thrill of the unknown contrasts with what is taught, contextless and insistent. Through it all, the future is discernible, and glistens on in the smoke, like Beirut's "blue neon of a prayer bead."

Drawing on a methodological framework and an insightful first-hand account, the book discusses the character of Her Highness Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak, who has played a significant role in the UAE’s unique achievements. With wisdom, noble principles, unique leadership qualities, and a strong will and determination, Her Highness firmly believes that aspirations go hand-in-hand with challenges. These challenges should be faced with consistent effort, which is key to realizing accomplishments that might at first seem far-fetched. The book traces pivotal moments in Her Highness’ life and work. Sheikh Zayed (may God rest his soul in peace) was a role model for Her Highness’ thought and personal development, due to his experience, qualities and exceptional ability to shape current and future outcomes. The chapters of this book highlight Her Highness’ ceaseless efforts to establish the foundations of a new era for Emirati women, in all areas. The book affirms Sheikha Fatima’s inspiring character and outstanding administrative abilities in planning, implementing and achieving goals, which have enabled her to pioneer major transformations as part of the UAE’s development process. Humanitarianism is second nature to Sheikha Fatima. She is renowned for her good deeds and a commitment to giving that knows no bounds. The honors Her Highness has received, locally, regionally and internationally, reflect her high profile; she is admired, respected and honored by leading forums and organizations, spanning many areas of activity, in a testament to her outstanding efforts.

Shakir tells the long neglected story of the bint arab—the Arab woman—in the United States. Drawing on primary sources such as club minutes, census records, and dozens of interviews, she explores the experience of late 19th- and early 20th-century immigrants—mostly Christian peasants from Lebanon and Syria—and their American-born daughters. Later, she moves on to the well-assimilated granddaughters (many of whom have reidentified with the Arab community and begun to fight its political battles). The work concludes with those women—most of them Muslim—who have emigrated over the last quarter century from many Arab countries, particularly Palestinians. While attempting to correct stereotypes that picture Arab women as passive, mindless, and downtrodden, Shakir gives voice to women caught in a tug of war, usually waged within the family, between traditional values and the social and sexual liberties permitted women in the West. Complicating that battle has been the American suspicion of Arab peoples, which has sometimes pushed women—as guardians of a culture under attack—to resist the blandishments of American society. However, the sense of embattlement has sometimes had the opposite outcome, legitimizing women's activities in the public and political realm. Leavened with personal reminiscences by the author, this book introduces a gallery of spirited women, speaking candidly about their differing backgrounds, values, and aspirations. Essential for all scholars and students of America's social and religious diversity.
