Description

"Ayat Jamilah: Beautiful Signs is a young adult/adult crossover anthology, drawing from not only the core of Islamic spirituality and ethics, the Qur'an and the traditions (hadiths), but also from the mystical verse, folk tales, and exemplary figures of the Islamic narrative. Beautiful Signs gathers traditional stories from the farthest reaches of the Muslim world, which stretches from Morocco in the west to Indonesia in the east, and from China in the north to Tanzania in the south. This anthology, with its explanatory notes, will be valuable to anyone wishing to understand, or to teach, geography, world history, or world religions. It will also be treasured by Muslim families and by all parents committed to broadening the lives and values of their children and themselves."--BOOK JACKET
