These books were originally published in Urdu to provide children with a basic knowledge and understanding of revered figures from our religious history. The goal of these books is for children to develop a love and appreciation for the profound faith and the immense sacrifices of the revered personalities portrayed in these books. It is also hoped that the examples of righteousness found in these pages inspire children to cultivate a personal relationship with Allah, our Creator and Sustainer.
This particular book is about the life of Hazrat Zainab (ra), the daughter of our beloved Master, the Holy Prophet Muhammad (sas). Some modifications and additions have been made to the original text for the sake of historical accuracy and style.
This book was rendered into English by the Children’s Book Team of Additional Wakalat-e-Tasnif headed by Uzma Saeed Ahmad and Noma Saeed Samee, and includes: Busaina Ahmad, Hafia Khan, Rafia Rehana Khattak and Amina Maryem Shams. May Allah the Almighty reward them abundantly in this world and the hereafter. Amin.
