The Crescent Beacon

Beschreibung

Fifteen-year-old Samira Noor, feeling invisible at her Seattle high school, discovers a glowing crescent-shaped lantern during a midnight drive with her grandmother. Guided by its Qur'anic inscriptions on mercy, she embarks on a transformative journey-unearthing an ancient chamber, leading community outreach at a shelter, and standing firm against rumors and adversity. As the city faces blackouts and social trials, Samira learns that true guidance shines brightest through compassion and selfless service. A tale of faith-empowered leadership and the enduring legacy of mercy.
