The Soule of the Desert
'
The 31 brief, if pithy, chapters of the book narrate the life of Prophet Muhammad in verse. The book aims to help students and readers of young age memorise and internalize the facts and facets of the glorious life of the Messenger. This will help grown-ups as well, since it throws light on various aspects and episodes on the 'gem of the desert' in simple words. The Messenger and the men and women around the Messenger have been sketched so vividly in the book that it will add to the understanding and pondering about a great life and the people, landscape and belief influenced by that life. We hope this biography of the Prophet in verse will contribute to the rich literary tradition of singing about Muhammed (Peace be upon Him) throughout the Muslim world.
THE UNBEARABLE SLANT OF LIGHT
Blurb
The Unbearable Slant of Light is a luminous meditation on loss, memory, and the tender craft of healing. Through five sections: Breaking, Memory & Mourning, Home & Exile, Echoes & Endings, and Rebirth & Healing, the poet traces the quiet pilgrimage of a soul learning to live with its wounds.
In verses both intimate and haunting, and deeply human, the collection explores how grief transforms into grace and the remnants of sorrow become seeds of renewal. Every poem bears witness to survival, to the ache and tenderness of remembering, and to the slow return of light: unbearable, yet saving.
