A Priceless Princess: Love Notes to a Young Muslimah by Dr. Nasiroh Omar — "A daughter is an everlasting treasure, a priceless gift."
As time goes on, our girls will grow up and start to lead their own lives. They will encounter many challenges throughout their journey in this world, but with the help of useful reminders and lasting knowledge, one can stay on the righteous path of Islam.
A Collection of Notes From a Mother to Her Daughter
A daughter is an everlasting treasure, a priceless gift from Allah. This book is an essential collection of notes from a mother to her daughter, detailing the journey of life as a Muslim in a modern and engaging way that is easy for young girls and children to understand.
Also a Guide for Parents and Educators
With direct passages from the Qur'an and Hadith, this book can also be used as a guide for parents and Islamic educators alike — which is unusual for a book written in this warm, personal register, and makes it useful well beyond its immediate reader.
What It Nurtures
Rooted in the Qur'an and Sunnah, the book blends Islamic teachings, moral values and practical wisdom to nurture the spiritual and emotional wellbeing of a young Muslimah — reminding her of the priceless worth of a believing woman in the sight of Allah, and of the honor and modesty that Islam accords her.
Why "Love Notes" Rather Than a Formal Treatise
Because self-worth, modesty and dignity are subjects young women absorb more readily through affectionate, direct address than through formal instruction — and that is the register this book is written in.
Who It Is For
Young Muslim women, and the mothers, fathers and educators who want to give them something warm and encouraging rather than only cautionary.
