Great Women of Islam is one of the series that turns the  spotlight onto the outstanding women around the Prophet  Muhammad (PBUH).  This is a film about timely revelations and  tiny revolutions, as we witness the momentous events that  influenced the role of women in Islam and the women who were  behind them. Here we meet two women who embodied the spirit of faith and courage during the Prophets time: Nusaybah Bint  Kaab (Umm Amarah) Al-Ansariyyah and Asma Bint Abi Bakr  As-Siddiq. Their stories are examples of the empowering quality of the message of the Prophet Muhammad ^(P.B.U.H.), as we witness  their bravery in the face of the ruling Quraysh through their  unwavering dedication to the young faith. Their stories serve to demonstrate that every person has a role to play in forming a good  and just society, and that no effort is too small, no heart too weak (or old, or corrupt!), and no task too daunting. These inspiring  women were honored and revered by the Prophet himself - a  testament to the equality and importance of women in Islam, and  they deserve to be remembered as role models, today and always..
