Translation of Tuhfa-e-Khawatin. The sayings of the Prophet, Sall-Allahu alayhi wa sallam, for the Muslim women. Must read book for women after Bahishti Zevar. A comprehensive, very popular, and highly recommended source of education for the Muslim women.

This is a collection of lectures given specifically to women by Bediuzzaman Said Nursi. It also includes answers to questions sent by women to Bediuzzaman Said Nursi. In the author’s words: “It is suggested that by some Hadiths that at the end of time, among women the truths of belief will hold an important place and to an extent the women will be preserved from the dangers posed by the misguidance of those times. There is Hadith the meaning of which is: ‘At the end of time follow the religion of the elderly women.’ That is to say, the heartfelt sincerity of those champions of compassion, arising from their compassion, will be a means of saving them from perils of the hypocritical misguidance of those times. They will adhere steadfastly to Islam.” From the Risale-i Nur Collection.

Addressing Adolescence is a parent-to-parent handbook outlining how to tackle the challenges of parenting adolescents within an Islamic ethos in a pluralist society.
