I can’t continue without saying it one more time: Powerful Young Muslim Girls! … Suffice to say, thumbs up from Madam and two thumbs up from me.

It’s wonderful to see young Muslim women defined for who they are, their strengths and talents, and not for what’s on their head.

I could really feel the love that went into this book – the characters, the places, the history, and the things that the author clearly strongly believes in and wants to share with our children and the wider world through her heroines…My daughter’s verdict? “I would give the book a 10 out of 10 mum”

We’ve reviewed 100s of Islamic non-fiction and fiction books from every single continent, except Antarctica, and none of the fiction books (not including picture books) have made such an impression on our family as Jannah Jewels.The debut book is unique because its jammed-pack with action, suspense, drama and humor, and supplemented with history, geography, architecture, and Islamic lessons. The story flows naturally, like watching a fun family film. Subhanallah (Glory be to Allah), my three girls found themselves in each of these confident characters.
