Question

As he paddled back to Claiborne, a hope flickered within Zeitoun that his siblings might see him on TV. Perhaps they would see what he was doing, that he had done something good by staying in his adopted city. The Zeitouns were proud, and there was plenty of sibling rivalry that had pushed them all to an array of achievements—all of them measured against the deeds of Mohammed. None of them had ever done something like that, none had achieved on his level. But Zeitoun felt again that perhaps this was his calling, that God had waited to put him here and now to test him in this way. And so he hoped, as silly as it seemed, that his siblings might see him like this. Why does the author include Zeitoun’s thoughts? to emphasize how his Muslim faith drives his actions to illustrate how his strong familial bonds comfort him to establish the way he competes with his siblings to reveal the vain hopes held by Katrina survivors

This shows that Zeitoun believed that his success in the actions he promoted were the result of God's plan for his life and that is why he was so successful, because God accompanied him. Zeitoun as a Muslim, has a lot of faith in God's projects and his thoughts reveal that it is this faith that drives his actions.
