Aisha lemu, A legendary touch that guided many young minds.

I remember during my early teenage years, I found myself reading a number of her Islamic studies text books. It addressed much of the questions most teenagers had about Islam, ranging from theory, practice, belief and jurisprudence in Islam.
Some years back, when the social space was filled with all kinds of extremist ideologies, here book "Laxity, Moderation and Extremism in Islam" and that of Al-qaradawi which I happened to find on my dad's stash really equipped me and am sure many other against extreme views that some unscrupulous elements were feeding young minds.

She wrote alot of other amazing books. Some of which include women in Islam, A degree above them, women in dawah, The ideal Muslim husband, Animals in Islam and
So many more.

I recently learn of the demise of this amazing women, Aisha Lemu was a British-born author and religious educator who converted to Islam in 1961 and lived most of her life in Nigeria. She died on 5th January, 2019 in Minna, Niger State. may Allah unite her with our beloved prophet(pbuh) in Aljanatu-firdaus.
