    Glad Tidings Of Jannat For Women

    These are not sahīh hadith, although some may be at least da`īf.
    Someone with greater knowledge may check this. They are possibly sayings
    collected by Hazrat Maoulana Saeed Khan Sahib Muhajir Madani. The gist of these sayings accord to the Islamic message and point to the fact that if Muslim women act upon their original and natural function, their reward will be immense, so these sayings are for encouragement, not to be taken letter for letter.
