My 9 year old daughter- who LOVES to read- finished the book in about 1 and 1\/2 days, she stayed up one night until 2:00am reading it. Now she calls me \"Mrs. Hudda\" and asks me to make adventures for her to go through.\u003cbr\u003e I love the way they tied in very practical problems that kids face and then use the examples from the Masumeen to learn from.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSister Arifa Hudda\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“The long-awaited Meet the Masumeen has surpasses all expectations.

I like how the book is made and how the authors put the stories of the Masumeen altogether, and how they have used both fact and fiction together. I also learnt many things about the Prophet, Lady Fatima and Imams that we don't normally hear.

By definition it is a “divine influence directly and immediately exerted upon the mind or soul.” How true this statement is, for the book you are holding in your hands, is truly proof. In the year 2005, HIC Orlando Florida, formed a youth group. Alhumdulilah, we conducted many activities, but it was one Friday night during our weekly discussions, our fate had changed. That particular Friday night the Youth Girls were having a group discussion with Sister Tahera Kassamali. We loved our discussions with her, for she is one of our role models who talks the talk and walks the walk- what she preaches she practices so her worlds always touched our hearts and souls. Taherabai was more like a friend who understood and never judged. That night as we sat in a circle, she told us stories about our Imams- not those traditionally stories we hear in majlises- stories that made us see our Imam’s in ways we never knew before. She made us realize that they were individuals who we could emulate- and more importantly she made us yearn to learn more about them. She lit the flame of inspiration in our hearts and Allah SWT’s plan was in motion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The following Friday night discussion, we were blessed with our other amazing speaker, Sister Masooma Hassan. Masooma Aunty was another favorite of ours, for she too had a way to reach the youths. That night we had a Q\u0026amp;A, and one of the girls asked her what is the one thing the youths should focus on this year. It seemed as if she was inspired by the Almighty, for her words are still in our hearts today and you are holding the fruit of those words. “Islamic Shia Children’s Books!” Masooma Aunty further explained the lack of well written books for the younger generation and motivated us. She took the candle that was lit with the flame of inspiration from Taherabai and gave it a beautiful holder, and inspired us even further. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The flame of inspiration by Taherabai and Masooma Aunty had our minds racing, our hearts anticipating and the youths were inspired to write a book on the 14 Masumeen for the younger generation. A group of us got together divided the work, the researchers, the illustrators, writers, editors. It never seemed like a daunting task, even though it was huge task. The candle of inspiration kept us going. We had meetings, tons and tons of emails, phone calls, the list was endless. Never did we hear complaints or fight amongst ourselves, rather we made new friendships and learned the skill of compromise. Most importantly, we learned to get rid of the \"I\" and replace it with doing things just for pleasing the Almighty Allah SWT. This was truly a team effort. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In about 2 years, the project was complete but sadly the candle was flickering. We now had 14 books but no way to publish it. Printing costs were immense; publishers had other projects, year after year the books just sat in our computers. We were losing hope, and started to blow out the candle, but Allah had the ultimate plan for surely He rewards the patient ones with something better than they had envisioned. Five years later, I had asked a friend of mine to edit the books one last time, for we had a donor… The donor fell through, but this editor was working with a publisher who was publishing her children’s book… SubhanAllah our candle was lit again, and this time it didn’t blow out and Sun Behind the Clouds took our inspiration and hard work and made it reach the hands of our little ones. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Looking back at this project, the amount of tears and frustration that was felt for that past 5 years, we have learned firsthand how Allah SWT truly works. It was HE who choose Tahera Aunty and Masooma Aunty to inspire us. It was is HE who choose the Youth and guided them to use their time in HIS service. It was HE who choose our editors, and it was ultimately HE who chose who He wanted the book to be published with. What we learned is, never give up on HIM, when you do something truly for HIM, HE will choose HIS human angels to get the job down. NEVER GIVE UP-NO MATTER HOW MANY HURDLES YOU FACE-Have faith in HIM.. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e To all those Human Angels we have across in the past 7 years, thank you. We would be totally doing injustice if we didn’t give a special thanks to Rumina, Shazia and Zainab for sticking through to the end and ensuring that this book reached the hands it was meant for. Tehseen for being more than just a publisher, for understanding this project was our precious baby and treating it like it was hers too. To the editors who always met the deadlines, to the youth who made this happen and gave up their profits for the book to the Orphans, and to the two who inspired us, know one thing, you were chosen by the Almighty and your reward truly lies with the Almighty. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e We hope and pray that we can light the flame of inspiration in the hearts of our readers to follow the footsteps of the Masumeen and to work to serve the Almighty. We pray the Almighty accepts what little we have done and may we answer the Awaited one’s call.
