Ahmad Mulloy Ashmawy is the son of an Irish-American mother, Teresa Mulloy, and an Egyptian father, Omar Ashmawy, who disappeared when Ahmad was three. Taken under the strict guidance of Shaik Rashid when he was eleven where he begins his bi-weekly Qur’an and Arabic lessons, Ahmad moves through the post-9/11 “New Prospect” in New Jersey with the (typical) revulsion for the materialistic, hedonistic “Americanism”.
