Umm Zakiyyah
This book is a collection of fifty bittersweet lessons that Umm Zakiyyah learned the hard way on her journey of life and love. She says, 'These are lessons that I often had to learn and re-learn over and over-even after Allah had already gifted me with soul-nourishing, blessed solitude in my life.' In this book, the 'quiet part' includes personal truths she learned from two emotions that Muslim women are often shamed away from: joy and rage. She says, 'Most of these truths were gleaned from lessons that ’the fire of experience’ taught me-most especially after I chose to walk away from unhealthy relationships and circumstances that were no longer beneficial for my life or nourishing to my soul.'
