By Drs. Ekram & Mohamed Rida Beshir. "This work is a positive proof that even in this day and age, it is possible to raise Muslim teens who despite being today's concern are yet tomorrow's hope. This book is a must for parents and teenagers alike. This book makes for compelling reading because it is intelligible, practical and it is not esoteric or theoretical. The six practical signposts offered in the Beshir's Road Map clearly point out steps that all concerned parents can follow on the journey leading their teenagers to responsible adulthood." — Edris Khamissa, South Africa, 2002. Amana Publications (2007), English, Paperback, Pages: 258.

"This book is an excellent guide for helping parents raise their teens in today's society. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has young children or teens, whether they are Muslims or non-Muslims." — Fariz Elchamah, Canada, 2002
