Aishah bint Abu Bakr been an inspiration and paragon for Muslims since the first generation of Believers. Hailed as a guiding light, a fount of wisdom and a purveyor of the Prophetic mission, 'A'ishah's words have illuminated Islamic thought in all its branches. This book compiles 40 of her insights and statements in the categories of Qur'anic exegesis (tafsir), Jurisprudence (fiqh), Theology ('aqidah), Politics (siyasah) and Heart Softeners (al-raqa'iq) with commentary for the contemporary Muslim seeking spiritual and moral direction as they traverse through daily life and its challenges and possibilities.
