The Call

December 6, 2005

An American man walked into Wardah and asked for, “The simplest book on Islam.”

We reach for ‘Islam: Religion of Life’ (Abdul Wadud Shalabi, Starlatch Press). The best book to introduce Islam, in our opinion.

The American asks, “How can a religion whose call to prayer is cried out five times a day from a tall minaret be so misunderstood?”

You can tell alot about a person, simply by listening to how they frame their questions. To me, this man is a sincere seeker.

May no seeker be rebuffed.
