Letters to a young Muslim, by Omar Saif Ghobash.
"Omar Saif Ghobash was born in 1971 in the United Arab Emirates - the same year the country was founded - to an Arab father and a Russian mother. After a traumatizing experience losing his father to a violent attack in 1977, when he was only six years old, Ghobash began to realize the severe violence that surrounded him in his home country. As he grew older, eventually being appointed as the UAE Ambassador to Russia in 2008, he began to reflect on what it means to be a Muslim... This book is the result of the personal exploration Ghobash went through in the years after his father's death.... The burning question, Ghobash argues, is how moderate Muslims will unite and find a voice that is true to Islam while actively and productively engaging in the modern world."-- Provided by publisher."

Born with wings : the spiritual journey of a modern Muslim woman, by Daisy Khan. "Khan details her faith journey, beginning with the strong guidance of her supportive family in her native Kashmir, where religious practices were deeply felt. But after she moves to the U.S., questions and doubts began to surface for Khan. Finding Sufism renewed her and served as a starting point for her activism. Khan's extensive research on her faith led to one of her core beliefs: that, despite perceptions to the contrary, Islam elevates the status of women. Today, she is the executive director of the Women's Islamic Initiative for Spirituality and Equality... A thought-provoking read." (Booklist, courtesy of Syndetics)
