| Publisher Description: The story takes place in Morocco. It begins in a village in the Atlas Mountains and continues in the city. Ayadi is a poor but religious man who lived in a village and led a simple life; he got married to Hema and had two daughters. The story narrates Ayadi's life from losing his first son in the village, followed by another sorrowful event soon after moving to the city. Also, the family celebrates the birth of a second son, Krad, who possesses special aptitudes. The title was inspired by a saying the Muslim prophet Mohammad, peace and blessings be upon him, told his followers. He said the followers of Islam were looked upon as strangers or foreigners. This was true when the religion was first introduced and will be again. This novel is aimed at people who are interested in learning about other cultures. It will introduce the reader to the details of a typical believer and his offspring. This novel will help remove the enigma surrounding the real foreign men, the true followers of the religion of Islam. The author is originally from Morocco and came to Texas to get a bachelor's degree in business. He ended up staying, marrying a beautiful lady, and finishing an MBA. |
