Women IN ISLAM

"The book "Women in Islam" (inspired by the study "Best Woman on the Face of the Earth") is a concise introductory guide that showcases the exceptional honor and appreciation women receive in Islamic law. It highlights the ultimate female role models in human history such as Maryam (Mary) the daughter of 'Imran, Khadijah the daughter of Khuwaylid and 'Aishah, may Allah be pleased with them to refute misconceptions and reaffirm the woman's role as a protected jewel and an essential partner in building society."

The book "Women in Islam" (inspired by the original study "Best Woman on the Face of the Earth" by Dr. Faruq Post and summarized by Abdul Ghani Bannerman) stems from the prophetic Hadith that elevates distinguished women who reached the heights of human perfection, offering an introductory guide that delves into the biographies of great figures such as Maryam the daughter of 'Imran, Khadijah the daughter of Khuwaylid, 'Aishah and Asiyah the wife of Pharaoh. Through these models, the book illustrates the exceptional divine honor bestowed upon women in Islamic Sharia, where Allah created them to be a source of tranquility, mercy, and the foundational pillar for the rise of nations and the nurturing of generations. Furthermore, the work focuses on the Islamic vision of a woman as a protected jewel whose dignity must be safeguarded and cared for, confronting modern intellectual trends and currents that attempt to distort her image or turn her into a mere consumer commodity in the name of civility and civilization. Thus, this book serves as an accessible reference that balances the vindication of women's status in Islam with the refutation of contemporary misconceptions and fallacies surrounding their rights.
