“hmm, there was so much I took away from this workshop, the interaction, the real life examples, the real life stories, the small break out groups, the discussions etc, wish we had more time, it is definitely not what I had expected and will really help m going forward” Orlando, November 2013
“This is not what I had expected, practical, real, eye opening, I had never realised the mistakes I was making – wish this was there 5 years ago” Peterborough, UK March 2013

As we commemorate Imam Husayn's revolution of truth and justice, this poem considers our role as Hussaynis in a world wracked by oppression.
Muharram arrived with piercing screams
Playing children bombed to smithereens
Torn limbs shrouded in ash
Lost in the deafening blitz, blinding flash
I heard the echoes fade
As I sat in the mosque and prayed
Safe in His house of peace
Far from the blood and screams
