Suma Din is a published author of children’s and adult’s titles. Her publications bring a fresh approach to writing about faith and children's issues for the education sector and beyond. She is a qualified teacher and mother of three.
Special Times
'A journey through life in Islam', is part of a series looking at how faith affects important times in someone's life, as well as the rites of passage. This title includes case studies of UK based Muslims intermingled with those from other continents to produce a lively, realistic book for schools and libraries. The questions on each spread are broad enough to encourage a response from a wide range of experiences. The other five titles in the Special Times series are written by authors from each faith group.
About the book
Special Times is a series which takes you on a journey through life in six major world religions.
The Islam title will answer many questions about life as a Muslim, such as:
How is a baby is welcomed into a Muslim family?
What is an Aqiqah?
How do Muslim children learn about their faith?
What happens at a Muslim wedding ceremony?
What do Muslims believe about life after death?
Throughout the book there are real-life, contemporary examples of childrens’ and adults’ experiences, with striking, personal photographs.
