This book just creates MORE misconceptions about Islam. It is a horrible book because of the so many errors present in it. They misconstrued the verses of the Holy Quran and did NOTHING good in the whole book. Pray once or twice a week??!!! WHAT Muslims should pray 35 times a week. I am a Muslim teen in America and I find this book BLASPHEMOUS. HORRIBLE. The authors should disassociate their selves with Islam or change their views. My advice to a Muslim teen in America is to NEVER EVER read this book. I wish i could give it under 1 star.
In my opinion this handbook is an even a more important read for the non-Muslim teenager as it will finally give some answers, guidance and clarity to the mysteries and misconceptions Christian and Jewish American teenagers often have about this religion. It is a book any teenager will reach for in the bookstore: because it has been written by teenagers, has an attractive paper back cover, carries clear concise and often witty language, with a colorful layout, fun pictures and quizzes, and it is not too long... something teenagers will appreciate in their often to-fit-it-all-in lives!! I hope this book will become available in every library and at every middle and high school in the USA. As a non American but living in USA, I also urge the writers to eventually edit this book in order to make it suitable for a world wide teenage audience... there will certainly be a need for it.
