".....Daniel Maldonado is a frequent customer of both book stores. Maldonado, who is part Puerto Rican, converted to Islam three years ago from Christianity. He moved to Chicago from Massachusetts recently so he could live in a larger Islamic community. As we speak, Maldonado steps away to observe his daily prayers. Islam requires its followers to pray five times a day facing east to Mecca. Maldonado praises the store's rich selection after his prayers.

"Education is needed for followers of Islam because radical Muslims don't properly understand their own religion," Maldonado says. "The proof of this lies in the Qur'an. The Prophet Mohammed did not tolerate extremism. He said, 'This religion is too powerful to be taken to the extreme.'"
