Shortage of Islamic books in Mexico

In a letter sent to IQRAA website by sister Galia Toxtile, a Mexican converted to Islam about five years ago, complaining about the lack of Islamic books and publications in Spanish language in Mexico.

“In Puebla City, there is a lot of people want to learn about Islam, especially because I wear Hijab and I become vulnerable to be questioned by my friends about this religion.” She said.

So, she wants to help the Islamic institutes to organize an annual ceremony in Puebla which can help in spreading Islam and bridging the cooperation among the Mexican Muslims.
