The Bad Muslim Discount: A Novel

The Bad Muslim Discount is a thought-provoking and hilarious novel that follows two families from Pakistan and Iraq as they navigate their way through modern America.

With deep insight and warmth, Syed M.

Masood examines universal questions of identity, faith, and belonging through the lens of Muslim Americans.

The book presents a stereoscopic view of contemporary Muslim America, showing how historical conflict in the Middle East lingers in individual lives and how gossip travels in a close-knit immigrant community.

Through the eyes of Anvar Faris, a restless and rebellious young boy, and Safwa, a young girl living in war-torn Baghdad, we see the contradictory and intertwined fates of these two remarkable individuals as they grow into their identities and find their place in the world.

With an irreverent sense of humor and a poignant exploration of identity, The Bad Muslim Discount is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of Muslim American life.
