The Love

"The Love" Taken from the first flap of the book: It was July 3, 2015. A three-year-old boy stood up in the middle of a prayer and said, “Excuse me, Imam, tomorrow is the fourth of July. Could you please pray for my country, the United States of America?” The imam refused to do so. With the help of the Huffington Post and other newspapers, the little boy responded to the Imam by initiating the campaign The Love, which aimed to counter such hate. To promote the campaign, the boy also wrote a book by the same title. Yes, I was that child and this is my story.
