Shaheen is a historical novel written in Urdu by Pakistani Islamic historian and novelist Naseem Hijazi.

It details the situation of the Muslims in Granada in 1492 when they were about to be expelled from Spain. The novel also very beautifully depicts the reasons of the destruction of Muslim power in Granada.

Recently an English translation has been made for the novel which can be read online. The link is http://shaheenthenovel.weebly.com/
