IS THE DAUGHTER
of a rich merchant from Mecca in the
harsh, exotic world of seventh-century
Arabia at the time of the foundation of
Islam. When she is married to the Prophet
Muhammad at the age of nine, she must
rely on her wits, her courage, and even
her sword in a struggle to control her own
destiny and carve out a place for herself
in the community, fighting religious
persecution, jealous sister-wives, political
rivals, and her own temptations. As she
grows to love her kind, generous husband,
her ingenuity and devotion make her an
indispensable advisor to Muhammad.
Ultimately, she becomes one of the most
important women in Islam, and a fierce
protector of her husband s words and
legacy.
Extensively researched and elegantly
crafted, The Jewel of Medina evokes the
beauty and harsh realities of life in an
age long past, during a time of war,
enlightenment, and upheaval. At once a
love story, a history lesson, and a coming-
of-age tale, The Jewel of Medina introduces
readers to the turmoil that surrounded the
birth of the Islamic faith through the eyes
of a truly unforgettable heroine.
