Role models are people who inspire us to dream bigger by broadening the horizons of our imagination. They
challenge us to go beyond limited possibilities by expanding our aspirational matrix. In this refreshing and unique account of the contributions of Indian Muslims to national life, Shehla Rashid brings together a formidable list of achievers, such as A.R. Rahman, Sania Mirza, Nigar Shaji, Dr Ausaf Sayeed and Huma Qureshi, among others, who have excelled in their respective fields. She postulates the idea of a ‘Muslim civil society’-a space where new ideas can germinate, allowing talent to achieve its full potential and reforms to take root. As Shehla brings their stories to life, she also offers insights into her own life, the choices she made, and the way forward for Muslims in a democratic political system.

This is a book about Muslim pride as well as the need for social reform. The author has made a rare attempt to balance Muslim pride and the need to confront things that keep us backward. It is clear that she is deeply concerned about the future of Indian Muslims and wants them to succeed. Kudos to the author. Loved reading the inspiring life stories and positive messages. In the post 9/11 world, this is the first attempt to portray Muslims in a positive light, and can be used to counter global Islamophobia.
