While in 2019 saw the release of her English-language debut book, Treasure of the Lost Sea. The same year, she also released her second book, Portal of the Hidden World.
Ritaj met the requirements to hold the record for the youngest female author of a book series after the release of her second book, and after having her application approved, the honor was bestowed upon her. Beyond the Future World, her third book was released in 2020.

However then something unexpected occurs, and their lives suddenly shift to a new world where they go on an adventure and end up being its heroes.
Ritaj, who was raised in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia's Dhahran, is presently 13 years old and studying Japanese in addition to speaking Arabic and English. Ritaj was inspired by the British novelist J.K. Rowling's writing style, and workshops led by Jessica Brody helped her hone her craft. She appreciates Joanne Rendell's writing as well.
As part of her ongoing campaign to encourage kids all over the world to pursue their ambitions, Ritaj is presently working on the fourth book in the series, The Passage to the Unknown. Ritaj isn't the only young author with a Guinness World Records achievement, though.
