Description
“Your Time Will Come” is a powerful and moving memoir by Rabia Siddique, an Australian-born lawyer of Indian descent who overcame significant personal and professional challenges to become a leading voice in the fight for justice and equality. In this deeply personal account, Rabia shares the story of her life, from her early years in Australia, where she faced racism and bullying, to her experiences as a legal officer in the British Army, where she played a pivotal role in a hostage crisis in Iraq.
Rabia’s story is one of determination and courage. She recounts how she fought against the odds to pursue a career in law, despite the barriers she faced as a woman of color in a predominantly white, male-dominated profession. Her journey took her from the courtroom to the battlefield, where she confronted not only external enemies but also the internal battles of self-doubt and fear.
One of the most gripping parts of the book is Rabia’s involvement in the hostage crisis in Iraq, where she risked her life to negotiate the release of two British soldiers. Her bravery during this event earned her the Military Cross, but it also led to a fierce battle for recognition and equality when her contributions were overlooked due to institutional sexism.
Throughout “Your Time Will Come,” Rabia emphasizes the importance of staying true to one’s values, even in the face of adversity. She reflects on the lessons she learned from her experiences, including the power of persistence, the necessity of standing up for what is right, and the belief that everyone has the potential to make a difference in the world.
The book is not just a recounting of Rabia’s achievements; it is a call to action for readers to find their own voice and fight for their rights. It encourages individuals to believe that their time will come, regardless of the challenges they may face, and to never give up on their dreams.
Why You Should Read It:
“Your Time Will Come” is an inspiring and empowering read for anyone who has ever felt marginalized or underestimated.

This book is perfect for readers who are looking for motivation to overcome their own challenges and make a meaningful impact in the world. It serves as a reminder that no matter how difficult the journey, with determination and courage, success is within reach.
