Title: Hadrat Amman Jan (ra) An Inspiration For Us All


About: A Tribute to Hadrat Sayyedah Nusrat Jahan Begum (ra) The Wife of Hadrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (as) - The Promised Messiah.

Author: Munavara Ghauri, Lajna Imaillah UK 2011

I wanted to redirect all of the younger as well as older Lajna members to a great book, that I thoroughly enjoyed reading. Growing up, I was always told to look up to the Holy Prophet (saw) and the Promised Messiah (as), and I did, in order to become a better Ahmadi Muslim. However, I felt like I wasn't getting as much knowledge on how a Muslimah should live her life, and take on roles such as a daughter, sister, wife, and mother. While reading this book, I was constantly learning  about ways to improve myself by following the example of Hazrat Amman Jan (ra). I definitely recommend this book to all the girls, but especially if you're getting married, this book has great guidelines for being a better wife and mother. The following is how the chapters are laid-out:
  • How Hadrat Amman Jan's Parents Became Acquainted with the Family of the Promised Messiah (as)
  • The Parentage of Sayyedah Nusrat Jahan Begum (ra)
  • Prophecies Relating to the Promised Messiah's Marriage to Hadrat Amman Jan (ra)
  • A Blessed Match
  • Hadrat Amman Jan's Life Passion: Worship
  • The Fulfilment of Hadrat Amman Jan's (ra) Prayers
  • The Fulfilment of Hadrat Amman Jan's (ra) Words
  • Hadrat Amman Jan's (ra) Love for the Promised Messiah (as)
  • Hadrat Amman Jan's (ra) Relationship with the Promised Messiah's (as) First Wife and In-Laws
  • Hadrat Amman Jan's (ra) Relationship with Her Daughters-in-Law
  • Hadrat Amman Jan's Financial Sacrifices
  • Hadrat Amman Jan's Daily Routine
  • A Simple Lifestyle
  • Hadrat Amman Jan's Appearance
  • Hadrat Amman Jan's Beahviour towards Her Household Helpers
  • A Lovely Sense of Huour and Gaiety
  • A Revolutionary Wedding
  • Hadrat Amman Jan's Kindness ot Orphans, the Needy and Students
  • Respect of Teachers
  • Hadrat Amman Jan's Moral Training of Children
  • Hadrat Amman Jan's Immense Steadfastness and Unshakeable Faith in the Promised Messiah (as), During Times of Great Loss
  • Hadrat Amman Jan(ra): A Paragon of Patience In Her Final Illness
  • Some Opinions of Hadrat Amman Jan's Children About their Mother
  • "Top Tips" From Hadrat Amman Jan (ra)
  • Hadrat Amman Jan: Where She Lives Now
  • A Final Message for the Jama'at
This book is a great source of knowledge for Lajna, both young and old. It tackles so many of the questions that we have, regarding how we as Ahmadi women should live our lives. 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.
