Content: " When was the last time you heard a Muslim woman speak for herself without a filter? Shortlisted for Foyles Non-Fiction Book of the Year.'Engrossing . fascinating . courageous' 8211 Observer.In 2016, Mariam Khan read that David Cameron had linked the radicalization of Muslim men to the 'traditional submissiveness' of Muslim women. Mariam felt pretty sure she didn't know a single Muslim woman who would describe herself that way. Why was she hearing about Muslim women from people who were neither Muslim, nor female? Years later the state of the national discourse has deteriorated even further, and Muslim women's voices are still pushed to the fringes 8211 the figures leading the discussion are white and male. Taking one of the most politicized and misused words associated with Muslim women and Islamophobia, It's Not About the Burqa is poised to change all that. Here are voices you won't see represented in the national news headlines: seventeen Muslim women speaking frankly about the hijab and wavering faith, about love and divorce, about feminism, queer identity, sex, and the twin threats of a disapproving community and a racist country. With a mix of British and international women writers, from activist Mona Eltahawy's definition of a revolution to journalist and broadcaster Saima Mir telling the story of her experience of arranged marriage, from author Sufiya Ahmed on her Islamic feminist icon to playwright Afshan D'souza-Lodhi's moving piece about her relationship with her hijab, these essays are funny, warm, sometimes sad, and often angry, and each of them is a passionate declaration calling time on the oppression, the lazy stereotyping, the misogyny and the Islamophobia. What does it mean, exactly, to be a Muslim woman in the West today? According to the media, it's all about the burqa. Here's what it's really about. "

Contributors discuss why they have or have not chosen to wear the hijab and veil at different times in their lives, and how a recent “Muslim boom” in the fashion world has increased representation while pitting “modern” and “traditional” Muslim women against each other. Discussions of Islamic marriage and family life include YA novelist Sufiya Ahmed on the contrast between the celebrated independence of the Prophet Mohammed’s first wife and the enforcement of patriarchy by Muslim Indian “auntie-jis.” Researcher Jamilla Hekmoun analyzes how Islamophobia contributes to the problem of mental health in a community that associates depression with lack of faith, and Yassmin Midhat Abdel-Magied shares her experiences working in the hypermasculine environment of an Australian oil rig. In the provocatively titled “Feminism Needs to Die,” anthology editor Khan urges mainstream feminists to “decenter themselves and their views of empowerment to include women of colour, trans women, non-binary women, gender-queer people, and women of faith.” Though the particular experiences of American Muslims aren’t voiced, this bold and authentic collection powerfully counters the stereotypes by which Muslim women in the West are judged."

She lives in Rockville, Maryland." Rezension(2): "〈a href=http://www.publishersweekly.com target=blank〉〈img src=https://images.contentreserve.com/pw_logo.png alt=Publisher's Weekly border=0 /〉〈/a〉: Starred review from January 20, 2020 Hena Khan ( More to the Story ) opens this peaceful incantation with a spread of young brown-skinned parents bowed over an infant: “Inshallah you are all/ that is gentle and good.” A page turn later, they push the baby in a stroller: “Inshallah you feel safe,/ like all children should.” Debuting illustrator Saffa Khan creates vibrant ink and digital spreads in sunset tints striated with blues and greens. As the pages turn, the infant becomes a child, learns to ride a bike (“Inshallah you have faith/ that won’t waver or bend”), and learns to take responsibility for actions,the child is pictured on a doorstep with two friends, one hijabi, holding a note that reads “sorry.” Thoughtfully, a spread that accompanies the words “Inshallah you travel/ to thrilling new places” shows children, including one using a wheelchair, playing make believe instead of on a picturesque overseas trip. It’s a view of a childhood focused not just on well-being, but on hope—to “count all your blessings” and “find wonder”—as well. An author’s note defines inshallah (“if God wills it” in Arabic) as a word “used by people of many faiths to reflect the idea of a greater force or power beyond ourselves.” Ages 3–5." Rezension(3): "〈a href=http://www.slj.com/ target=blank〉〈img src=https://images.contentreserve.com/schoollibraryjournal_logo.png alt=School Library Journal border=0 /〉〈/a〉: February 1, 2020PreS-K- A bedtime story that reassures children that they are loved. This book depicts parents' aspirations and desires for their children at different stages of life. Each page starts with the phrase Inshallah, which means if God wills it in Arabic. Although these hopes and wishes are inspired by the Quran, they portray parents' universal desires for their children, such as Inshallah you feel safe, like all children should, Inshallah you are kind to those most in need. Each page depicts how different stages of a child's life add new expectations and hopes for parents, such as Inshallah you reach out to make new friends and Inshallah you speak truth and work for its sake. The illustrations expand across each spread along with one simple sentence and showcase Arabic calligraphy as art pieces on the walls. The artwork is colored with matte tones and has a two-dimensional feel. VERDICT A book for Muslim families to introduce religious traditions to young children and for non-Muslim families who wish to teach diversity and religious acceptance.- Noureen Qadir-Jafar, Syosset Library, NYCopyright 2020 School Library Journal, LLC Used with permission. " Rezension(4): "〈a href=http://www.kirkusreviews.com target=blank〉〈img src=https://images.contentreserve.com/kirkus_logo.png alt=Kirkus border=0 /〉〈/a〉: February 1, 2020 Punctuating the narrative with repetitions of inshallah, a mother lists the hopes she has for her child in this celebration of unconditional love. Simple and lyrical verse expresses a parent's wish of safety, love, happiness, and so much more for her child. Inshallah you are kind to those most in need. / Inshallah you seek knowledge, reflect, and read. Saffa Khan's illustrations complement Hena Khan's text, bringing to it a sense of movement, change, and liveliness as she ages the child from babe in arms to preschooler. The clear and short sentences deliver a straightforward message of parental love. Using a vibrant, bright, bold palette dominated by orange, blue, and yellow, the illustrations capture this family's feelings, including such details as Arabic words in the background and an older figure wearing hijab to demonstrate that this is a Muslim family. Family members all have black hair, the brown of their skin varying slightly individual by individual. An author's note before the title page explains the meaning of the phrase inshallah, noting that it is spoken by Muslims worldwide and expresses a common theme found in other languages and cultures. This is a lovely addition to the growing collection of diverse books focusing on a family's unconditional love and addresses the dearth of children's books inspired by the Quran. This beautiful, sweet, heartfelt message of love and hope for a child will resonate with many. (Picture book. 3-7) COPYRIGHT(2020) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. " Rezension(5): "〈a href=https://www.booklistonline.com target=blank〉〈img src=https://images.contentreserve.com/booklist_logo.png alt=Booklist border=0 /〉〈/a〉: February 15, 2020 Preschool-G A foreword from the author explains that the word inshallah translates to God willing, and while it is familiar to Muslims, it has universal significance. The word anchors Khan's meditative text, which reads like a prayer from parent to child, delivered in sweet, rhyming couplets of direct address. Inshallah you are all / that is gentle and good. / Inshallah you feel safe, / like all children should. A single, soft line appears on each spread, all centering on the same child as she ages from page to page?having a picnic, making friends at school, learning how to swim?always in the company of family or friends. Illustrator Khan's sweeping oranges and blues, all beautiful extensions of the family's skin and hair tones, make a stunning visual statement celebrating the values of community, wonder, and love. The book leaves us with the image of the mother reading in bed to her child?an appropriate sendoff. This love letter, a rarity in its lightness of hand, is one that parents, especially Arabs, will cherish bringing into their bedtime routines.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2020, American Library Association.)

Content: Sarah Khan wuchs in den 1970er Jahren bei ihrem alleinerziehenden muslimischen Vater in Hamburg auf. An Weihnachten brachte er die Kinder immer zu ihrer deutschen Familie: zu all den Onkels und Tanten und zu Opa Werner, einem Pastor im Kirchenkreis Nordelbiens. Für einen Pastor ist das Fest der Liebe der härteste Arbeitstag des Jahres, und in seinem Haushalt versammeln sich die unterschiedlichsten Gäste. Weihnachten als Multi Kulti-Erlebnis, nicht ganz spannungsfrei, wenn es um Lebensart, Alkohol oder Ironie geht, aber lustig und in seiner eigentümlich verkrampften Multikulti-Verbissenheit auch sehr deutsch. Es gab neben russischen Eiern, Wiener Würstel und Kartoffelsalat auch Streit, Diskussionen - und eine gehörige Tracht Predigt in der Mitternachtsmesse, zu der alle mitgingen. Eine Weihnachtsgeschichte über die Sehnsucht nach Zugehörigkeit. Sarah Khan, geboren 1971, ist Schriftstellerin und lebt in Berlin. Sie veröffentlichte Geister-Reportagen, Ebay-Geschichten, drei Romane und eine Horrornovelle. Im Frühjahr 2019 erscheint ihr Buch 'Wochenendhaus'. 2012 erhielt sie den Michael-Althen-Preis für Kritik der Frankfurter Allgemeinen Zeitung. Sarah Khan, geboren 1971, ist Schriftstellerin und lebt in Berlin.

Sie studierte Volkskunde und Germanistik und veröffentlichte zwischen 1999 und 2004 drei Romane: 'Gogo-Girl' (1999), 'Dein Film' (2001), 'Eine romantische Maßnahme' (2004). Bei Suhrkamp erschien 2009 ein Band zeitgenössischer Spukgeschichten aus Berlin 'Die Gespenster von Berlin. Unheimliche Geschichten' (erweiterte Neuauflage im Herbst 2013).

Ein spannender und etwas erotischer Horrortrip für die Herbststunden am Display. Victor Gips erbt den verstaubten Buchladen eines verschollenen Onkels. Aber das Geschäft entgleitet ihm: Der Staatsschutz schnüffelt herum und seine einzige Stammkundin macht sich über ihn lustig. Sein Liebesleben könnte neue Impulse vertragen, aber seine Exfreundin, die Biochemikerin Yvonne, testet chemische Sexpeitschen und Gleitcremes an ihm aus und lässt ihn anschließend lange Fragebögen ausfüllen. Als er seinen Laden wegen angeblichen Rattenbefalls schließen muss, entdeckt er, dass Schimmel, Fäulnis und orangefarbene Cremes nur die Vorboten einer weltumspannenden Transformation sind. Ein Horrorpilz verspricht den Menschen neue Lebensräume - wenn sie nur tot sind. Eine finstere Novelle über Schimmelsporen, unbefriedigte Restgefühle und den Verlust von Autonomie, mit einem garstigen Showdown. Sarah Khan erzählt unerbittlich-atemlos, süffisant-komisch von einem Mann, der alles verliert, bevor er ein anderes Leben findet. Horrormystery at its best.

These demonstrate that violence is an outmoded response we can no longer afford. The simple, but powerful daily actions and everyday interactions that Thich Nhat Hanh recommends can root out violence where it lives in our hearts and minds and help us discover the power to create peace at every level of life —,personal, family, neighborhood, community, state, nation, and world. Whether dealing with extreme emotions and challenging situations or managing interpersonal and international conflicts, Thich Nhat Hanh relies on the 2,600-year-old traditional wisdom and scholarship of the Buddha, as well as other great scriptures. He teaches us to look more deeply into our thoughts and lives so that we can know what to do and what not to do to transform them into something better. With a combination or courage, sweetness, and candor, he tells us that we can make a difference,we are not helpless,we can create peace here and now."

Content: Rezension(1): "Thich Nhat Hanh (pronounced tik-not-hawn ) is a world-renowned writer, scholar, spiritual leader, and Zen Buddhist monk. Since age sixteen, he has been a Buddhist monk, a peace activist, and a seeker of the way. He has survived three wars, persecution, and more than thirty years of exile from his native Vietnam, when he was banned by both the non-Communist and Communist governments for his role in undermining the violence he saw affecting his people. He is still the master of one of the most prominent temples in Vietnam, and his lineage is traceable directly to the Buddha himself. A prolific author, Nhat Hanh has written more than one hundred books of philosophy, poetry, and fiction. Currently, Nhat Hanh lives in a monastic community in southwestern France that he founded, called Plum Village, where he teaches, writes, gardens, and works to help refugees worldwide. More information can be found at PlumVillage.org. " Rezension(2): "〈a href=http://www.audiofilemagazine.com target=_blank〉〈img src=https://images.contentreserve.com/audiofile_logo.jpg alt=AudioFile Magazine border=0 /〉〈/a〉:If one could convert the destructiveness of a nuclear bomb to the generation of peace, the result would be as powerful as this recording. Thich Nhat Hanh's carefully distilled anecdotes and instruction are rendered with warmth, sincerity, and compassion by actor Michael York. This is a near-perfect marriage of content and reader that could really improve the world. Hanh, a Zen Buddhist monk, offers concrete techniques and advice of use to each of us to instill real peace and harmony in our daily lives, families, communities, and the world. His personal experience of war and human suffering in his native Vietnam surely helped spur his wisdom. D.J.B.

Content: "Es ist ein Tag wie jeder andere im Leben des fünfjährigen Saroo: Auf dem Bahnhof einer indischen Kleinstadt sucht er nach Münzen und Essensresten. Schließlich schläft er vor Erschöpfung in einem wartenden Zug ein. Der fährt den kleinen Jungen ans andere Ende von Indien, nach Kalkutta. Völlig alleine an einem der gefährlichsten Orte der Welt schlägt er sich wochenlang auf der Straße durch, landet im Waisenhaus und gelangt so zu den Brierleys, die Saroo ein neues Zuhause in Australien schenken. Fünfundzwanzig Jahre später macht sich Saroo mit Hilfe von Google Earth auf die Suche nach seiner leiblichen Familie. Am Bildschirm fährt er Nacht für Nacht das Zugnetz von Indien ab. Das Unglaubliche passiert: Er findet ein Dorf, das dem Bild in seiner Erinnerung entspricht – und macht sich auf den Weg ..."

Content: Biographisches: "Saroo Brierley wurde in Khandwa, Madhya Pradesh, Indien geboren. Er lebt heute in Hobart, Australien und fährt regelmäßig nach Indien um seine leibliche Familie zu besuchen."
