About The Book: This book contain that the papers submitted by women to the Lucknow Conference have been sent to England, accompanied by instructions from the Executive Committee to publish them as a separate volume. It is referred to as the Women's Volume, and we hope that God will use it to ignite the passion among Christian women for the cause of Muslim women, which currently exists only in a nascent state. The Committee of the Lucknow Conference encourages us to move forward, invoking God's guidance, and we collectively seek divine inspiration for our campaign.
