The Best Damn Iftar - Taqwacore

Dinner and a Movie Iftar

Tonight, we dined on the talents of Omar Majeed and the movie Taqwacore, feature Michael Muhammed Knight and his journey through the world of Punk Islam.

The most inspirational part of the film was the concert in Pakistan where everyone came together and lived through the music and connected with the music and the spirit of Islam and love behind it.

You want this film. Ask for it a lot, so it gets distributed far and wide.

It's a beautiful, visual representation of the essence of The Taqwacores, the book that spawned this movement.

Next time, AIF chats with David Ramezani and the changing identities of Iranians.

Peace,
