Yasser and Zahra Meet The Saviour of Islam - Ibn Ali an Binte Abbas
Yasser loves Muharram because it means he can stay up late and chill with his friends at the mosque. Zahra hates Muharram because it means all the parties are cancelled and everyone is sad. Grandfather takes them both to their prayer room. He sits on his favourite chair, sighs deeply and says in a warm, loving voice, “Let me tell you a story.”
Those six little words transform Zahra’s mood immediately. She glances up at Yasser who looks back with a knowing grin. There is no doubt about it; they are about to go on one of their Grandfather’s marvellous adventures. Join Yasser and Zahra as they travel back in time and witness the most important events in the history of Islam unfold. From his blessed birth, and the event of Ghadir, to the journey from Medina to Karbala and his final moments, this book ignites a love for Imam Husayn in the heart of every reader. Based on Yasser and Zahra Meet The Heroes of Karbala.
Yasser and Zahra investigate what happened after Ashura
“Grandfather, what happened to the Ahlulbayt after Imam Husayn was killed?” Yasser asked. “What happened to his children, to Lady Zainab, to Imam Sajjad…?”
Zahra was not sure she wanted to know what had happened next. Grandfather’s face told her that it would be even sadder than what they had already witnessed last year. Yasser had a very different look on his face. He seemed to be bubbling with anticipation at the thought of investigating more.
They both watched Grandfather keenly, but for once he seemed hesitant to speak. “Yasser…Zahra… my dear children, the Ahlulbayt suffered terribly at the hands of some very evil people. If you take this journey, you must be prepared to witness many scenes that will change your lives forever. The atrocities the Ahlulbayt faced are beyond anything anyone has ever faced, but their courage, strength and unshakeable faith were also astonishing. Are you ready to see all that?”
Yasser and Zahra did not hesitate and nodded in unison.
They were ready. “In that case,” Grandfather said, “let me tell you a story…"
Yasser and Zahra Discover Surah Lahab - Ibn Ali & Binte Abbas
You could feel the tension on the soccer field; there were only 11 spots on the team and 30 children trying out!
As Yasser and Zahra run to join their friends, Madeeha quickly realizes that the other girls on the field are much more skilful than her! She tries a different tactic, and whispers a lie in Sunya’s ear. Soon, all the girls are busy gossiping and spreading rumours.
Nearby, Yahya and Maytham rest under a tree, “Don’t worry, we are guaranteed spots on the team. My dad bought all the equipment and uniforms!” Jabir wasn’t so sure, could money and influence really buy you a place on the team? The boys begin to argue.
Grandfather, who had been quietly observing all the chaos on the field that morning, brought some refreshing watermelon to cool everyone down. As he got closer, Yasser and Zahra saw a twinkle in his eye. He was holding a copy of the Holy Quran, and so they knew, it must be time for an extraordinary adventure!
Join Grandfather, Yasser, Zahra, and their friends on a journey through time as they learn lessons from Surah Lahab!
