Description

From the prayer of Hannah to the great trial faced by Maryam (as), we travel through the life of one of the Prophets of God: Prophet Isa (as). He was sent to bring people back to the Straight Path, but his journey is not yet finished; raised up to Heaven, by the Will of Allah, he is destined to return.

 

Based on authentic sources, this rhythmic book is full of detail and aims to correct misrepresentations and educate young readers on the Islamic narrative of Prophet Isa’s life.

 

About the authors

Contributor Notes

Hanifa has always had a love of literature, particularly classical writings and poetry. She delights in the works of Islamic intellectuals such as Imam al-Ghazali, Imam al-Haddad and Martin Lings. As well as Sufi poetry by the likes of Rumi and Rabia al-Adawiyyah.

 

Her passion to develop and engage young minds - prior to becoming a mother herself - started when she took the position of Secondary School English and English Literature teacher at the local Islamic School. Hanifa found that the opportunity to influence and empower the youth to be proud of their Muslim identity and to drive them to speak out for what is right was invaluable.

 

Hanifa is well-engrained in her community, regularly organising workshops and charitable events. She enjoys benefiting from Islamic talks and discussions, in particular those of Abdul Hakim Murad, Sheikh Hamza Yusuf, and Nouman Ali Khan. She also has a keen interest in environmental concerns and feels as Muslims we should be at the forefront of tackling such issues. To unwind, she takes great enjoyment in gardening and cooking from her home-grown produce.
