About 3 million Muslim children in North America are included in this category. Except for some religious textbooks, these children hardly have any Islamic literature available to read which may shape their behavior, attitudes or morals. English is the language of the dominant Western civilization. Throughout the world, Muslim children are taught English. The social elite of Muslim countries in particular raise their children to study and communicate in English, be it Pakistan, Egypt, or Indonesia.
Muslim children are, therefore, being raised to conform with Western images and ideals.
An English language magazine for Muslim children which contains stories, comics, games, articles, and activities along Islamic lines will be something which children will wait for. The purpose of the magazine will be to provide content which will shape children's ideals and character in the light of Islam. The magazine will, Insha Allah, raise a generation of English speaking children who are not only comfortable with their Islamic identity but are also able to successfully relate to the environment in which they live. It will be a 32-page, full color publication printed on attractive coated stock paper. The language of the magazine will be optimized for the junior high school level with a section for younger readers as well.
