This is a love story. You’ve been warned. <— Love from A to Z epigraph💙

I wrote a lot in the graphics posted so here I’ll just say I love @aishacs ; thank you for reading this book so fast and giving me vital input. And for being a good friend! In awe of you. ♥️

Recently i completed a radio interview with one of the best author-interviewers ever (she’s a legend mA) and she asked me to tell her about Mecca and I did…candidly and emotionally. Because it’s emotional for Muslims... especially sighting the Kaaba for the first time. Tears. Just tears. And smiles of course. Thank you @ingyillustrations for capturing this awe so movingly. 🧡🧡🧡🧡 (The tiktoks are of people’s attempts to capture the glow of Mecca and Medina. Which is as hard as writing about it. But we try. 🕋♥️)
