Mindful Muslim Review
This stunning book earns a gold-star for capturing our traditions in a simple yet beautiful way, helping to instill a deep love and connection to our faith. The first in this collection of highly recommended books introduces colors as they relate to what we hold sacred in our faith: the Quran, the masjid, our family and elders, prayer, zakat, and more. While this book can be used to introduce some of the pillars of our faith, it can also be used as an elementary art study of the basics of color theory – warm colors, cool colors, the color wheel, contrasting colors, etc.
