Ramin Abbas has MAJOR Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

New York: Atheneum\/Caitlyn Dlouhy Books, 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Publisher’s Synopsis (From its website)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Ramin Abbas has spent his whole life obeying his parents, his Imam, and, of course, Allah\u2014<\/strong>no questions asked. But when he starts crushing on the ridiculously handsome captain of the soccer team, so many things he\u2019d always been so sure about are becoming questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Music is haram. But what if the Wicked <\/em>soundtrack is the only thing keeping you sane because you\u2019re being forced to play on the soccer team? With Captain Handsome<\/em>?!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. A boy crush is double <\/em>haram, and Ramin\u2019s parents will never accept it. But can he really be the only Muslim on Earth who feels this way?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Allah is merciful and makes no mistakes. <\/em>Then isn\u2019t Ramin just the way Allah intended him to be?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And so why should living your truth but losing everything\u2014<\/strong>or living a lie and losing yourself\u2014<\/strong>have to be a choice<\/em>?!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
