Mothers of the Believers
Author: Makmor Tumin
Year: 2023
Publisher: Firdaus Press Publications

The book is a narration on the wives of the Prophet SAW – those revered by the
Muslims. Existing works on the Mothers of the Believers are not only ragged
and incomplete patchworks, but they run risks of approaching two extremes.
On one extreme, the Mothers of the Believers are inappropriately idolised as
angels, whereas on the other side of the spectrum, they are depicted and
discussed as ordinary people. The Mothers of the Believers are neither angels
nor simple laypeople, and this book provides a balanced account of their
history, following the discussion by Shaykh Yasir Qadhi and his voluminous
works on Islamic studies.

The Soul Speaks to the Soul. This work should get the attention of those
interested invarious subjects, including Sufi Mysticism. We must breakgluttony
and lust, not extirpate them. As the ethical saying of Prophet Muhammad
suggests, “The best of all matters is the middle way.” Because of the great
intentions Imam al-Ghazali had placed into it, his book glows, and its gleam
traverses across over nine centuries, seen by many even today.

be upon him, said, “Abu Bakr is in Paradise. Umar is in Paradise. Uthman is in
Paradise. Ali is in Paradise. Talhah is in Paradise. Zubayr is in Paradise. Abdur
Rahman ibn “Awf is in Paradise. Sa’ad is in Paradise. Abu ‘Ubaydah ibn al’Jarrah
