The Woman of Two Belts: Asma’ bint Abi Bakr As-Siddiq

Asma’ bint Abi Bakr RA is one of the most remarkable women in Islamic history, yet her name is not often uttered.

She lived over a century, witnessing the rise of Islam from the persecution in Makkah to the rule of the ten caliphs, and earned her title Dhat an-Nitaqayn (the Woman of Two Belts) for her courage during the Hijrah.

In this book, Dr. Waleed Abdulhakeem retells the story of Asma’ bint Abi Bakr RA, drawing countless life lessons from her century-long life. It is not merely another biography, but a tribute to one of Islam’s greatest women.
