Zach and his family live a modest life in San Francisco. One day his father receives an invitation from an old friend to meet at his orchard.

Once there, Zach and his father see the immense prosperity, wealth and land as far as the eye can see. But Zach soon sees that the lavish beauty is only hiding arrogance and pride beneath the surface.

This book has been written using the TIBS (Teaching Islam Based on Stories) method, a new way for youth to learn Quranic moral values. It can be read for entertainment, or in a class setting with the help of the included teacher’s or parent’s guide.

Using this method, readers will develop a deeper understanding of the concepts in Surah Al-Kahf(v32-44) and become more familiar with the Holy Quran. This book has been written to appeal to children between the ages of 9 and 13 and will help make the concepts found in the Quran relevant to their own lives.

TIBS was developed by Mrs. Fariba Kazemi in 2015 to be used to teach Quranic concepts to children and youth.

TIBS is designed to motivate curiosity, entertain, and foster the growth of wisdom and analytical skills in learners. TIBS aims to encourage a generation of smart, contemplative Muslims who are deeply fond of the Holy Quran.
