any novel that has a "happily ever after ending" where the hero and the heroine who are in deep love together get united at the end and live the entire of their life together .... each living for the other ... but i'd prefer it if their is no misery and suffering in between the start of their love and their reunion

When studying Islamic Historical fiqures, I fell in love with the passion and dedication of Nana Asma'u
The daugther of:

Shaihu Usman dan Fodio (Arabic: عثمان بن فودي ، عثمان دان فوديو‎)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nana Asma’u
One of the most prominent members of the caliphate was Shehu Usman dan Fodio’s daughter. She was very devoted to the education of the Muslim women and she was a writer herself like most of the rest of her family. She witnessed many of the Jihad wars and wrote about her experiences in the war in her books.Many of her written works are related to Islamic education; for much of her adult life she was responsible for educating women in their religion, Islam. She created a cadre of women teachers who travelled throughout the Caliphate educating women the students' own homes. Nana Asma’u was very well educated in the classics of the Arab world, and well versed in four languages (Arabic, Fulfulde, Hausa and Tamachek) which gave her a widespread reputation of a scholar and the opportunity to communicate with the whole sub-Saharan African Muslim World. David Westerlund wrote: “She continued to be a source of inspiration to the present day.”

Shaihu Usman dan Fodio (Arabic: عثمان بن فودي ، عثمان دان فوديو‎) (also referred to as Shaikh Usman Ibn Fodio , Shehu Uthman Dan Fuduye, or Shehu Usman dan Fodio, 1754 - 1817) was a writer and Islamic reformer. Dan Fodio was one of a class of urbanized ethnic Fulani living in the Hausa city-states in what is today northern Nigeria. Sheikh Uthman dan Fodio was a follower of the Maliki School in law and the Qadiri order in Sufism (the Sufi brotherhood that dates back to the 12th century). He lived in the city-state of Gobir until 1802 when he, motivated by his reformist ideas, led his Muslim followers out of the state. He wrote around one hundred books concerning his thoughts about religion, government, culture and society. He was strongly criticizing the Hausa ruling elite for their heavy taxation and unacceptable violation of the Sharia. He is considered an Islamic revivalist; he encouraged the education of women in religious matters, and several of his daughters emerged as scholars and writers.
