Inspiration, adventure, humor,
and even romance are elements in this collection
of new and original Muslim fables inspired by
ancient legends and folk tales and written with
interfaith sensitivity.
Qur’anic
and Biblical references solidify spiritual
truths as the lively adventures of endearing
characters teach such values as patience,
morals, ethics, and courtesy. Readers young and
old will find that although the stories are set
in times and places different from our own, the
messages are relevant in today’s world.
While a Muslim reader will
find his or her own beliefs clarified and
reinforced, a reader of another faith or of no
faith will learn something about Islam in a
gentle, entertaining, and non-proselytizing
manner. Christian and Jewish readers will
experience their faiths not as entities separate
from Islam, but as integral parts of the great
circle encompassed by the true Islamic ideal of
universal peace.
Vibrant watercolors and truly
inspirational writing make this book a spiritual
treasure for people of all faiths.
