More From The Author
Endorsements & Recognition
“Beautifully written book explaining domestic violence in detail and guiding you through your healing journey. It combines psychology and Islamic reminders and is very spiritually uplifting for the victim. May Allah bless and greatly reward the author. Ameen. I highly recommend.”
“This book under review is a result of the author’s engagement with women who were victims of domestic violence. It is a pragmatic endeavour. Chowdhury is a native informant, as her writing is a result of undertaking workshops and also working with victims of domestic abuse. The book is a nice contribution to the issue of domestic violence and how Islam can offer a solution to overcome this problem. The author has engaged with the problem holistically and decimated the myth that religion (read Islam) can be misinterpreted to perpetuate domestic violence.”

Who We Are
One of the First Islamic Publishers in the United Kingdom
Connecting English-speaking Muslims to the heart of their faith with authentic, accessible books.
At a time when there were limited faith-based resources to learn and teach Islam to the Muslim community in English, Afsar & Jamal-un-Nisa Siddiqui founded one of the first Islamic publishing houses in the UK. Leaving behind professional careers, they paved the way for future generations to enjoy a wide range of Islamic literature. Almost fifty years later, we continue to provide the highest quality books worldwide and support literacy charities.
