What does it mean to be Muslim? Are there different ways of being Muslim?? In this friendly guide, 12-year-old Zara explains the different ways a person can experience being Muslim, by introducing us to her family and friends. Zara meets 20 different Muslims, dead and alive, famous and unknown, real and imaginary. Each short encounter reveals something about what it means to be Muslim, including prayer, Hajj, jihad and dress (especially women's). Providing an excellent starting point for discussion with children, it also includes a helpful list of recommended sources for further information.
