ISBN: 9789960672565 Author: Dr. Muhammad Ali Hashimi Publisher: International Islamic Publishing House Pages: 456 Binding: Hardcover Description from the publisher: From the back cover: "The ideal Muslimah is proud of the great position that Islam has given her among humanity. She performs her duties knowing that her role is clearly defined and that her rights are still, even today, greater than any other ideology has provided. She is a woman of moral excellence, true to her nature, not confused by alien and morally bankrupt ideas. She preserves her self-respect and dignity through her piety in obedience to Allah (SWT) and His Messenger (PBUH). She is the role model that every true believer hopes to emulate. This comprehensive work by Dr. Al-Hashimi is a valuable contribution for our English readers who will find the knowledge contained therein truly beneficial and inspiring." Publisher's Note At a time when Muslim and Non-Muslim women are being harshly attached and attracted by the "feminist theories and studies" this book is a good approach and a reminder that Islam has held women as highly esteemed and respected. It is enough that the Holy Qur'an contains a full chapter on women. The sources of Islam i.e. the Holy Qur'an and the Prophetic Traditions have always spoken of the women's rights and made them full partners in the human venture of history more than any other religion or thought. Women in Islam are; mothers, sisters, partners, workers, scholars and business owners and managers. etc. Though this book outlines the ideal Muslimah personality as it should be according to the Qur'an and Sunnah Husbands, sons and daughters will also draw very much benefit from it. A true Muslimah is the one who is alert, knowledgeable, true to herself as well as to others. She is righteous, and faithful. She balances her obligations to Allah (SWT), her parents and children. She does not excel in one thing and neglect the other. She is a Qur'anic example to follow-, she is a woman whose examples to follow are the she-companions of the Messenger (PBUH). Her ideals are the wives of the Messenger (PBUH). The reader will find all this and much more in this book, which Dr. Hashmi wrote in a Arabic and was also broadcast on Riyadh Radio. This is his second book I.I.P.H translated into English. We hope the readers will find it really informative and comprehensive and pray Allah(SWT) for the best reward for them and ourselves. May the peace and blessing of Allah (SWT) be upon Muhammad (PBUH) his household and all his companions.   Mohammed Abdul-Mohsin Al Tuwaijri International Islamic Publishing House (I.I.P.H) Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. At a time when Muslim women are being increasingly attracted by "feminist theories" and "women's studies," this book serves as a timely reminder that the unique and authentic sources of Islam have always spoken of the rights of women and recognized women as full partners in the human venture of history. The translation of this book into English will render this valuable information more readily accessible to all the Muslims whose mother-tongue is not Arabic. Dr. Muhammad Ali Hashmi is a well-known writer in the Arab world. Born in Syria, he is the author of numerous books on Islamic andliterary topics. This is his second book translated into English; the first was "The Ideal Muslim."
