Summary of Rifqa Bary's Hiding in the Light

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 I was a happy little girl growing up in Sri Lanka, especially when I was with my mother. I always wanted to be by her side. Her big, beautiful smile warmed me, and her hearty laugh echoed throughout the house.

#2 I was born a Muslim, and I accepted it as normal. I had no idea what Islam meant for me or the people around me, but I knew that it was who I was and what I would always be.

#3 I had a traumatic injury when I was six years old, which left me with a severely damaged eye. But the most surprising loss was the change in how my family treated me, as if they felt I had become a burden.

#4 I remember finding a stray kitten, for example, and bringing him a bowl of milk every day. My parents wouldn’t allow me to touch him, but one morning, my mother allowed me to bring the kitten along.
