Book Review: Responsibilities of Ahmadi Muslim Women
Title: Responsibilities of Ahmadi Muslim Women
About: Compilation of Addresses by Hadhrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad Khalifatul Masih V (may Allah strengthen his hand) Head of the World Wide Ahmadiyya Muslim Community
Author: Isha'at (Publications) - Lajna Imai'llah UK 2013
I wanted to redirect all of the Lajna members to a great book, that I thoroughly enjoyed reading. Hadhrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad (may Allah strengthen his hand), always presents extremely knowledgeable sermons at any occasion. The sermons included in this book consist of:
- Address Delivered to the Ladies at Jalsa Salana UK 2009
- Address Delivered at the UK Lajna and Nasirat National Ijtima 2009
- Address Delivered to the Ladies at Jalsa Salana UK 2012
- Address Delivered at the UK Lajna and Nasirat National Ijtema 3rd October 2010
- Address Delivered to Lajna at Jalsa Salana UK 2011 on 23rd July 2011
- Friday Sermon Delivered at Masjid Bai'at'-ur-Rehman, USA on June 22nd 2012
- Address Delivered to Lajna at Jalsa Salana USA on 30th June 2012
This book is a great source of knowledge for Lajna, both young and old. It tackles so many of the questions that we have, but fail to find answers for: Ahmadi women's role in society, marriage, Taqwa, using our resources to spread Islam, women in Islam's history, raising children with the love of Islam and fulfilling our pledge.
I recommend this book to be read by every Lajna member as it truly reminds us of our responsibility as the mother's, daughters, sisters and wives of Islam.

ReplyDeleteSalam, I don't think there's a PDF version available. However, you can probably buy it from the bookstore in (i.e. Baitul Futuh's bookstore) or order online: http://www.amibookstore.us/product_info.php?products_id=1413

ReplyDeleteCan I know who an Ahmadi woman and a Lajna member is? Any one can read this right?
ReplyDeleteSalam,
DeleteThe Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is a sect within Islam, we believe the Messiah foretold by the Prophet (peace be upon him) has come in the form of Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (peace be on him). You can find out more about Ahmadi's here: www.alislam.org.
Lajna, is the name used for the Women's Auxiliary within Ahmadiyyat.
Yes, this book can be read by anyone. It's a collection of the speeches given by the present Caliph (Head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad), on the responsibilities of Muslim Women as mothers, daughters, and wives. And how to live a spiritually fulfilling life, and please Allah in all the roles we take on as Muslim women.
