Dear Readers - Young and Grown,
This book is written with one deep hope: to remind us all that we are first humans, and then believers - not just citizens of a country, a language, or a flag. Too often today, we are divided by small things:
He's from that country.
She wears it this way.
They speak a different language.
But we forget the big truth:
We all come from the same Creator. We all belong to one human family. We are one Ummah.
This book shares stories from many different youth-some living in Canada, some in Bangladesh, some from the Gulf or UK. They speak different languages. They have different skin tones. But in every story, one thing shines through:
Unity is strength.
Respect is power.
Faith must be above flags.
In Al- Qur'an, Allah (SWT) says:
Indeed, this Ummah of yours is one Ummah, and I am your Lord, so worship Me. (Surah Al-Anbiya: 21, Verse: 92)
And Allah reminds us again:
Hold firmly to the rope of Allah all together and do not be divided. (Surah Al-Imran: 3, Verse: 103)
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) also said:
A Muslim is the brother of a Muslim. He does not oppress him nor abandon him. (Sahih Bukhari & Muslim)
Dear Youth,You are the future leaders, teachers, artists, workers, and parents.
You will shape the world to come.
So I ask you:
Don't follow division.
Don't let skin, race, passport, or accent divide your heart. Don't be proud of land but forget the people living on it.
Instead-
Build bridges.
Support local voices.
Respect those who clean, not only those who preach.
See wisdom in grandparents, not just Google.
Love your country, but don't hate others.
Use your voice for truth, not just trends.
Always remember:
Flags are cloth. Borders are lines. But hearts are eternal. The real ummah is built through care, compassion, and unity.
Let us teach our hands to serve, not slap.
Let us teach our mouths to speak kindness, not comparison. Let us walk as one. Eat as one. Pray as one. Build as one. If this book lights even one spark in your soul, to love more and divide less -
then it has done its job.
With faith, hope, and deep love for all of you, Zabed Mohammad, PhD
