Prayers of the Pious

Omar Suleiman is one of America's most influential Muslims. He has 1.4 MILLION Facebook followers and regularly appears on television and social media arguing for justice. He is listed as one of the 500 most influential Muslim in the world, and listed by CNN as one of 25 Muslims changing America. In recent months and years he has been a prominent critic of the separation of migrant children from their families, and a supporter of rights for refugees persecuted minorities. In 2016 he was present at the shooting of police officers in Dallas and in the aftermath appealed for calm, togetherness and a different path for America - one of unity and peace. This book presents a series of Facebook videos he delivered during Ramadan 2018. Many of the videos were watched tens of thousands of times. Many videos featuring him on Youtube have been viewed millions of times. Presented as a beautiful gift book this collection of prayers, or du'as in Arabic, will stand out due to the authors notoriety. Another striking feature of this collection is the inclusion of a commentary to accompany each prayer. This has rarely been done in prayer books, and hasn't been seen in a gift book format, making this book stand out. Prayer books are perennial sellers, so we expect this title to have an extremely long tail. The interior is two colours. Chapters feature imagery of a tree growing to symoblize the reader's progress and development. The author and his organisation, the Yaqeen Institute, will be promoting this book.
