Puberty is a difficult and sensitive topic and one that it is easily put off or passed on to another teacher or even expected that it be taught by parents. Evidence over the past few decades has shown that young people are continuously exposed to information about their sexuality, their identity, and their womanhood, that can be misleading, incorrect or even dangerous. This false or misleading information has led many young girls to become confused, resulting in inappropriate actions, inability to care appropriately for themselves, and even to significant mental health issues.
Using common situations that the students in your care will recognise, this book guides Muslim girls living in Western countries on how to differentiate truth and true practice from falsehood.
This booklet aims to help you as the teacher address in simple and clear language the process of puberty and understand what is required of young Muslim girls so you can provide straightforward and appropriate answers to questions your students may have.
