Love and Hope Have No Borders: An Interfaith Story

Michael Bienenstock
5.00/5 (31 ratings)
“Can a Jewish man and a Muslim fall in love and marry? Love and Hope Have No Borders: An Interfaith Love Story” is a heartwarming story that beautifully captures the power of love and highlights the unyielding spirit of those who dare to reach for it. Although all the characters are fictional, this novel has real-world implications. Meet Joe Gold, a Jewish medical student sent by his father to the Zaatari Syrian refugee camp after a long, loving relationship had ended. There, he meets Alina Aziz, a young Sunni nurse with a deaf brother, Ishmael, who lost his hearing during a bombing in Syria. Their love defies the odds of religion and culture, blooming in a place where hope is scarce. Their intertwining lives and relationships force them to explore their feelings for their faith and their love for each other. This includes learning that their religions, Judaism and Islam, have many similarities. They dream of residing in the USA with Ishmael, and Alina makes it clear that she can’t leave Zaatari without her brother. However, immigration laws may prevent their hopes of a life together in America. Joe goes on a quest to navigate bureaucracy, combat family biases, and bridge the gap between the two faiths. He recruits his dad to assist him. Can Joe convince his parents that marrying a Muslim woman is all right? Will they marry? Will they be able to have a new life in the USA?
