Mash'Allah I wonder what prompted her to visit an Ottoman court to begin with? Missionairy efforts, of a unilateral nature? Mere curiosity? Maybe she was an orientalist of history? assalaamu alaikum Abdur-Rahman,

A beautiful poem. Allah! Some time ago, I was looking into early Quaker history and there is a record of a woman Quaker preacher who went all the way from England to the Ottoman court, where she was very well received by the Sultan (whose name escapes me at present). Her account is also very favourable to the Ottomans and Islam, as far as I understand it. I thought you might be interested in the reference. Abdur Rahman Salaams Yursil

Ameen. As for us… InshaAllah.. They proved it with their blood and sweat, with honor.

If this applies to them:

“We have transgressed much, no good deeds we have”

Where does that leave us?
