I came across this by accident as I was searching for a link to watch the show Ertugrul (Resurrection). The first version I came across was in Turkish with English subtitles, in the first scene within the first minute, the main character refuses the sword that is offered to him and responds by saying “there’s no sword other than Zulfiqar” and then makes a comment about Ali.  This really piqued my interest since a Shia reference in media is generally only made if it’s a religious channel or the news. It’s a topic that is rarely covered in Arab media.  I didn’t want to continue reading the subt ..read more

At this point, many people have come to understand that the foreign-looking Muslims in their land are not the crazy terrorists the media makes them out to be. You see them grocery shopping, celebrating birthdays, mowing their lawn, and you’re pretty sure that somewhere underneath all the strangeness that you don’t understand, they’re just as human. So you talk to them. And that brings on a whole new set of misconceptions that even Muslims aren’t aware of in some cases. 1. Praying The U.S has a Christian history. Rarely will you be able to exist on American soil without knowing who Jesus is an ..read more

I almost married a psycho.  This guy genuinely fit the bill when it came to narcissism. Not only that, but he also had some really weird mix of backwards minded religious views mixed in, making it even worse. When we argued; it wasn’t the argument, it was my opinion that had to be changed and he only wanted to push his agenda. This was his idea of solving a problem and “compromising”. Whenever I said something, he mirrored it in a way to relate and agree with me to a certain degree where it became ridiculous. And the craziest part is, he was so good, so good at it too. So good at reading my mi ..read more

Growing up, I don’t have a single memory of my parents reading me a story about ramadan, or salat, or anything even remotely related to my religion. There were simply no books for something like that. I didn’t grow up in an Arab country- whatever arabic media about this topic that existed for children was beyond me. So I grew up without these bedtime stories like many of my muslim friends, who’ve been displaced or immigrated for one reason or another, and grew up abroad from their native countries of origin.  I never even heard or read books about characters who were like me; there simply were ..read more
