Muslim wins “Lincolnland Legend” scholarship Chicago Crescent Zaina Zayyad, a junior at Aqsa School in Bridgeview, Illinois, received a $4,000 scholarship in a statewide contest for her essay on a "Lincolnland Legend."
Each student in the AP Writing class wrote about a person who they felt has made a difference in society and is a role model for the youth. Zayyad’s essay about CAIR Chicago’s Executive Director, Ahmed Rehab, was nominated as the best from her congressional district.
"This is such an outstanding achievement," said Khalida Baste, principal of Aqsa School. "Ahmed Rehab, a Muslim, is being recognized as someone who has made significant contributions to society and who serves as an inspirational figure for ALL youth in Illinois, not just the Muslim community."
