  1. Suddenly, my throwing rocks is the one act people find urgent enough to criticise with a Qur’anic verse, after everything else that happened in that circus apparently failed to inspire the same religious concern.

  5. Circus

    I was told to put my hand into a box containing ten snakes because I'm a Muslim woman and I believe in اللّٰه and His Messenger ﷺ, because one of the snakes is actually non-venomous, and because every believer does this challenge in this circus and they're all fine. I refused the challenge and walked away from the circus. People call me a kafir.

  11. 𝑭𝒓𝒐𝒎 𝑾𝒂𝒚𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒅𝒔: "𝑴𝒂𝒕𝒄𝒉 (1977)" -

    I stumbled upon this story recently that I had written nearly 50 years ago, at maybe age 13 or 14. A stumbling effort at grit and allegory, it somehow still feels socially and politically relevant. In embarrassment and nostalgia, I share.

  12. Giambattista Tiepolo
    An Allegory with Venus and Time
    1754-58
    Oil on canvas, 292 x 190 cm
    National Gallery, London

    One of my favourite pictures from London's National Gallery. I confess I often hold this picture in my mind's eye as a form of escapism -- an escape from strip malls, bloated SUVs, megachurches with fundamentalist PowerPoints punctuated by bad rock and extempore prayer, cargo pants,
    presidential make up, the Hobby Lobby...
