PARENTAL ADVISORY: This Episode contains an account of the practice of female infanticide during the period of ignorance. Whilst every effort has been made to present this in a delicate and tactful manner, some children may find this content disturbing. This is an integral part of the story of Sayyida Khadija, and of Islam - being one of the very first practices of ignorance that the light of Islam eradicates, and so it has been addressed in the Podcast.
We ask that you exercise caution when allowing your children to listen to this episode. Dr Bano has presented this content to her 6 year old daughter and found with gentle conversation the circumstances can be explained so as to manage emotions that may arisee, that said you each know your own children best. At the very least we ask that you are present when your children listen to this Episode.
At a time when the value, and even the life of a woman, was considered to be of no importance, Qurayshi society recognised the character, wisdom, intelligence and impact of Sayyida Khadija. Her countless virtues and the positive influence she had on others led her to be called Sayyidatul-nisa (the Leader of all Women) - a title no woman had ever been given before.
