Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about Islam, Ramadan, and fasting in general. Why do people fast? They might discuss Magid's struggle to become a good Muslim and the problem he faced. Why did Magid want to fast? Why did his parents think it was a bad idea? Do you think he was right to try to fool his family? Why did his sister tell his secret? What would you have done? For families with other religious backgrounds, is this how you pictured a Muslim family? How is your family the same? What do the media we see, hear, and read tell us about Muslim families and religious practices?
