Unravelling The Lie

An Original Islamic Love Story

Get lost in the powerful story of the will to persevere against misguided notions while retaining religious rationality and sensibility in the 21st century.

I hypnotically dashed toward the ebony box I kept hidden in my cedar chest. Rummaging among the items in my trousseau, I grabbed the box and manipulated the secret compartments, found the key and lock within its disguised drawers and opened my treasure cove. My eyes fell onto the photograph. I gingerly picked it up and held it out at arm’s length. A wave of calmness came over me that was difficult to explain. As I pressed the picture close to my heart, I resolved to pull myself together. I did not let this happen, I said out loud. They did.
