The "Women of Islam" series celebrates the remarkable stories of courageous women who played pivotal roles in the early days of Islam. Inspired by figures like Nusaybah bint Ka’ab and Khawlah Bint Al-Azwar, the series challenges traditional gender roles by highlighting their roles as warriors and defenders of the faith.
Nusaybah, revered for her bravery and unwavering commitment to Islam, fought alongside the Prophet Muhammad in battles such as Uhud, Khaybar, and Hunayn. Similarly, Khawlah, trained in swordsmanship by her father, emerged as a legendary figure known for her prowess on the battlefield. Through these narratives, the series aims to dismantle stereotypes and emphasize the importance of women's contributions in Islamic history.
