Muta The Tracker follows Muta’aqqib al-Hayawānāt, a fearless yet deeply reverent animal tracker who journeys through the deserts of New Mexico to observe the signs of Allaah in creation. From carefully handling a powerful Gila Monster to marveling at soaring California Condors, chasing the elusive banner-tailed kangaroo rat, offering water to a desert-dwelling spadefoot toad, and heeding the distant howl of the Mexican wolf, Muta’s path is one of courage guided by humility. Walking barefoot and grounded, he studies animals not to conquer them, but to understand their design, strength, and purpose. This story is a reflection on respect for life, balance with nature, and recognizing the wisdom of Al-Khāliq in every creature.
