Try Echo of Islam.  We get it as a gift.  It's a general magazine of the
Islamic Thought Foundation out of Iran.  It covers news, economy,
religion, art and culture, health, etc..  It should provide a good
balance in your collection.

Request the journal from:

Echo of Islam
P.O. Box 14155-3899
Tehran, Islamic Republic of Iran

Yesterday, a patron objected to the cover of this month's _Moment_
magazine.
For those who don't suscribe, Moment is a Jewish publication. This
particular cover features a male sniper covered in the fashion of a
Muslim
woman. Our patron, a Muslim woman, was concerned with the message behind
the
image. As a result, our director is looking into both Moment's history,
and
the possibility of carrying an additional Muslim magazine. I would
greatly
appreciate any or all of the following:

-your thoughts on Moment magazine
-your thoughts on _Al Jumuah_, an Islamic magazine we currently receive
as a
gift subscription.
-suggestions for other Muslim/Islamic publications

As always, thanks to everyone for their time!

Wendy
