The stunning memoir of a Muslim teen struggling to survive in the midst of the Bosnian genocide--and the stray cat who protected her family through it all. *Six Starred Reviews* A YALSA Excellence in Nonfiction Finalist A Capitol Choices Remarkable Book A Mighty Girl Best Book A Malala Fund Favorite Book Selection In 1992, Amra was a teen in Bihac, Bosnia, when her best friend said they couldn't speak anymore. Her friend didn't say why, but Amra knew the reason: Amra was Muslim. It was the first sign her world was changing. Then Muslim refugees from other Bosnian cities started arriving, fleeing Serbian persecution. When the tanks rolled into Bihac, bringing her own city under seige, Amra's happy life in her peaceful city vanished. But there is light even in the darkest of times, and she discovered that light in the warm, bonfire eyes of a stray cat. The little calico had followed the refugees into the city and lost her own family. At first, Amra doesn't want to bother with a stray; her family doesn't have the money to keep a pet. But with gentle charm this kitty finds her way into everyone's heart, and after a few near miracles when she seems to save the family, how could they turn her away? Here is the stunning true story of a teen who, even in the brutality of war, never wavered in her determination to obtain an education, maintain friendships, and even find a first love--and the cat who gave comfort, hope, and maybe even served as the family's guardian spirit.

This book is about Abu Bakr, the first Caliph to rule the world of Islam after the Prophet had passed away. More important than his achievements as a state leader was his close companionship with Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him; in fact, this relationship was so close that the Prophet referred to him as "al-Siddiq", the Truthful one, due to his peerless faithfulness to the Prophet and his message. Those who had knowledge of the earlier scriptures knew not only about the awaited Prophet but also his would-be Companion Abu Bakr. He was also the "second of the two" mentioned in the Qur'an (Tawba 9:40), in reference to the great emigration to Medina when Abu Bakr was the only Companion who was privileged to ride alongside the Prophet in this perilous journey, a turning point in the history of humankind.

Many have fallen victim to the mass of misinformation that circulates about the Qur'an. Others may have tried to read the Qur'an, but the text itself is tough to decipher.
