Importance of Female Leadership in a Muslim Society

Sakina (AS) sacrificed her whole family for Islam. She showed bravery and patience at all times .She was a source of strength for the other children. Another great leader was  Zainab. She was a really accurate representation of the meaning of her name which is something along the lines of: bravery, courage, strength, passion, dedication, love, leader, and most prominent for most, sacrifice. Lady Zainab was all of those things, and more, and there really cannot be enough words to describe this woman’s contribution to the spreading of Islam throughout the world due to her distinct and elevated character.
