This site grew out of the need for our Academy students who were abroad to obtain access to reading material.  In doing this we realize that inshallah more will become available.  You will notice that the name is "Lateefah"  because that sister needed online resources more than anyone I knew !!  Mashallah!!  I say that to say that as Muslims if you see something wrong...Or you would really like to add to this site email her at latmus@arabesq.com she will add some links to this site provided they contribute to the betterment of all Muslim families.  We are trying our best to introduce you to many things out there.  This does not mean we are believers in the various shi'a , sufi or secular stories we are just bringing them to you.

Mariam's Story Park    Many Sufis used to relate stories in which they conveyed multiple messages. It was their way of helping others make associations and in the process understand the story behind the story. I think it is a matter of perception and interpretation. Here are some stories written by famous Sufis, non-Sufis. 

Mariam's Poetry Park I think this is a nice "Islamic" resource for Poetry.  If you are not a sufi you can still weed through the "extras" ....... this is a site worth seeing though.
