FYI
It looks like the little sheikh has also hit New York City by storm, after
his visit to Gambia.

As Salaamu Alaikum,
I just returned from Friday prayer at the mosque at 96th street and 3rd ave.
and I wish to share with you something that I saw there. There was a boy
there who the Imam called a "Miracle child" and mashaAllah, he truly was.
Born to christian parents, the boy began to recite ayat from the Qur`an when
he was two years old, causing his parents to convert to Islam. He is now 4
years old and fluent in Arabic, French, and Swahili. He gave a short speech
and mashaAllah, the eloquence with which he spoke was like that of a grown
man. He will be staying in America for the next two weeks and then will
return to his home in Tanzania. The Imam of the mosque said he would try to
arrange for the child scholar to come again on Sunday at 12:00pm and perhaps
for some other events. I would strongly encourage anyone who can go see him
to see him, it will definitely increase your iman inshaAllah. You can call
the mosque to get more information, the number is (212)722-5234.
