Seeking knowledge is a duty upon every Muslim, male or female. The type of knowledge that each individual must learn varies according to the needs.

Women also need knowledge to fulfil their duties in accordance with the teachings of Islam, but they find it difficult to seek the knowledge because of moral conditions and modesty restrictions.

This book is published for the same purpose of providing knowledge to women as regards matters of faith, acts of worship, details about purification, problems of marriage and divorce, and other important issues that relate to women.
