This is a fantastic compilation of reading materials from the wonderful Delilah in response to a request for suggestions on helpful resources pertaining to Shi’a Islam - and she went above and beyond. Take advantage of what Delilah was good enough to compile for us and be sure to follow her because she’s the absolute best.

In hotels in Japan, if you’re a Muslim, they give you a prayer mat, a Qur’an and a map of the only mosque in Tokyo!


That’s the Most Thoughtful thing I saw all day. 

I have been to a lot of countries and I have never heard of anyone doing anything like this.
That just warmed my heart. Seriously.
Although when I spoke to one of the THREE Muslim Chaplains while in Chicago last year, they provided me with a Qu’ran and a “Muslim Travel Buddy” which is a foldable, plastic prayer mat that I can carry while underway.

Just a reminder:

When Prophet Muhammad (sallahu alayhi wa sallam) was travelling on the road with his cousin, Al-Fadl ibn Abbas, a woman stopped him to ask him a question.  The woman was very beautiful, and Al-Fadl couldn’t help but stare at her.

Seeing this, Prophet Muhammad reached out his hand and turned his cousin’s face away.

He didn’t tell the woman to cover her face.

He didn’t tell her to change her clothing.

He didn’t tell her that her appearance was too tempting or indecent.

He averted his cousin’s impolite stare.
