If you had one wish what would it be? Print E-mail
By Ghalia Mohder   

Many of us grew up watching Aladdin and often fantasized about finding a magic lamp that would grant us any wish we wanted. However, human desire is endless and choosing what one wants the most can be difficult. InFocus decided to ask young Muslims, "If you had one wish what would it be?" Here are their responses.

"I wish poor people can get rich." (Jude Elaref, 7, Huntington Beach)

"I wish for a huge house with animals."
(Abrar Elaref, 6, Huntington Beach)

"I would wish for unlimited wishes."

"I would wish for a million dollars."
