Muslim Imam (My Life, My Religion)
Authors: Akbar Dad Khan
Synopsis: In each book of the series,
a religious community leader describes his or her work and daily life.
They show that they have far more to do than lead services one day a
week - for example, teaching, studying, hospital visiting, caring,
office work, attending meetings and representing their religious
institution in the local community. They are also 'ordinary people',
practising their religion for themselves and keeping up with mundane
matters like cooking and cleaning. Each book is based on photographs
specially taken to show the busy, variety-full life of the person in
question. The first-person text leads the reader through the pictures.
In describing each leader's life and work, the photos and text also
provide a wealth of information about the religion itself. MUSLIM IMAM
features Masood Akhter Hazami, imam at a large mosque in Luton,
Bedfordshire.
