A woman's guide to finding a balanced lifestyle and a glowing heart in Islam.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Big Little Steps is a 'self-help' book for Muslims, which seeks both to inspire Muslim women and to educate those outside the faith, according to Dr Myriam Francois.

Since her conversion to Islam in 2002, Mathilde Loujayne has encountered women from all walks of life on a common spiritual journey to discover Islam from a feminine perspective.

Fuelled by a desire to find the right words to explain to her mother her choice to embrace Islam, this guide was born.

Through Mathilde Loujayne's personal experiences—grief, high school, moving abroad, work, marriage, and motherhood—she addresses women's common concerns as they take the big, little steps towards finding a balanced lifestyle and a glowing heart in Islam.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

Big Little Steps is praised for its heartfelt and compassionate approach. Grazia Middle East highlights how it breaks down a woman's journey to Islam into manageable, relatable parts. Dr Ingrid Mattson calls it a useful and sensible guide for new Muslims. Kristiane Backer appreciates its holistic, feminine perspective and accessibility, wishing she'd had it when she converted. Quake Books describes it as a heart-warming book full of practical advice and insights every Muslim woman should read.
