Some Great Role Models for our Muslim Sisters to emulate, our mothers in deen.

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum athalaatha, 27th day of Jumaadal Uula 1447AH, Tuesday, 18th November, 2025. 

 Bismillaah.


If the history of Islam be viewed and analyzed from an objective point of view, then one would ultimately reach the conclusion that women have a great role and status in Islam and throughout the Islam history they have made their contributions and for those contribution they have been revered and appreciated. 


Like renowned and great men of Islam there are Muslim women as well who have left their mark on Islamic history and who stand as role models for Muslim women to follow and seek guidance from. I will be sharing on some great women of Islam from today, who must be the role models of every Muslim woman of today and the lesson, which Muslim women must learn from their lives. The order is not of any relevant please. 


1. Our Mother Khadijah (R.A):

For rich Muslim women, there can be no greater role model than our mother Khadijah (R.A). She was the first and only wife of Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) and the richest of them all till she died before the Prophet married again. She inherited a great fortune from her father after his passing away, however, the use of that fortune is what Muslim women need to learn from. Despite her being rich, she was never proud of it, rather she always fed the poor, gave them clothes and assisted her family with regards to their financial needs. Regarding her, The Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said:


“The best of world’s women is our mother Maryam, the mother of Issah alayhi salaam (in her lifetime), and the best of world’s women is our Mother Khadijah (in her lifetime).” (in Saheeh Bukhari).


Khadijah (RA) was not known for a pious business woman only, rather her role as a supporting wife and a true Muslim is also evident from her life. She was the one who supported and encouraged Prophet Mohammed (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) when revelation came to Him for the first time. Moreover, when Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) started preaching Islam, she stood by Him and supported Him in every regard possible. She supported the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam financially and made him the manager of her wealth and business. Please find books about her and read more. To be continued tomorrow in other role models to follow. May ALLAH Azzawajal keep guiding and protecting us from any satanic influences Aameen.

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-Khamis. 25th day of RAJAB, 1444AH (Thursday 16th February. 2023). TOLERANCE WITH PEOPLE IN ISLAM. BismilLaah.  Tolerance (samah) is an important trait of a Muslim’s good character. We Muslims should be kind and gentle, patient with people, forgiving of bad character, and lenient whenever possible. The Prophet Mohammed Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam commanded us to avoid causing unnecessary difficulty and hardship in people’s lives and to inspire people with graceful speech. Make things easy and do not make things difficult. Give glad tidings and do not repel people. Cooperate with each other and do not become divided. Sahih Bukhari 2873, Grade: Muttafaqun Alayhi. This command is closely related to the need of a Muslim to control his or her anger. Unrestrained anger leads to numerous sins and bad deeds, so Muslims must temper their anger with patience, tolerance, and the ability to hold back harmful words. Teasing, mockery, insults to others et...

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul ahad, 17th day of Sha’abaan 1446AH, Sunday. 16th Feb. 2025). THE TRUE MEANINGS OF THE WORD DEEN continues. BismilLah.  ALLAH (Azza Wa Jal, The MIGHTY and the MAJESTIC) has sent HIS Messenger with the true deen for the purpose of ending the sovereignty of all false gods and granting us immense freedom so that we live as servants of none but the LORD of the UNIVERSE, no matter how much the idolaters and polytheists may dislike or oppose such a course. Thus, these three meanings of deen stand out: To acknowledge ALLAH as the ONLY LORD, MASTER and RULER. To obey and serve ONLY HIM. To be accountable to HIM, to fear only HIS punishment and to covet only HIS reward. Deen also includes obedience to ALLAH'S Messengers. The commandments of ALLAH Azzawajal have been given to human beings through HIS books and HIS Messengers. ALLAH Azzawajal says; Children of Aadam! If there should come to you Messengers from among you, who convey MY revelations unto you, ...

  THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum ar-ba'a. 7th day of Jumaadal Aakhir.. (Wednesday 20th January 2021). Who are Believers. BismilLah.  Lets check in  Suurah Al-Mu'minun (The Believers). ALLAH says; 1. Successful indeed are the believers.  2. Those who offer their Salaat (prayers) with all solemnity and full submissiveness. 3. And those who turn away from Al-Laghw (dirty, false, evil vain talk, falsehood, and all that ALLAH has forbidden).  4. Those who pay the Zakat . 5. Those who guard their chastity (i.e. private parts, from illegal sexual acts) 6. Except from their wives or (the captives and slaves) that their right hands possess, for then, they are free from blame; etc ALLAH, the Most High, says “…for verily ALLAH is with those who believe.”[Al Qur’an 8:19] When ALLAH says that “HE is with the believers”, it means that the believers don’t need anyone else. Rasullulah(sallallahu alaihi wasallam) has said “Be mindful of ALLAH, and ALLAH will protect you. Be m...
