Sufi Comics: Rumi (Volume 2)



I was introduced to Sufi Comics at Bangalore Comic Con and I've been following them since then online.  I've been reading the standalone works of Sufi Comics since past few years and I absolutely love their work. They have played an important role in my life and in developing my relationship with Qur'an. I often visit their blog for spiritual inspiration and every time I feel I have to connect with the divine.

Sufi Comics: Rumi (Volume 2) was absolutely breathtaking. I loved the artwork. The style was breathtaking. The Quote of Rumi "Stop acting so small. You are the universe in ecstatic motion" is especially close to my heart.

This book makes an excellent gift for adults as well young children. We need more such books today which introduce the world to a new facet of Islam.

The story resonated with me personally because for a stretch of time I had limited interaction with the outside world. As Jack and his Ma struggle to fit in the outside world once again, I could see their...

Two Years Eight Months and Twenty-Eight Nights: A Review

Salman Rushdie is a brilliant writer. The only writer to be awarded the Booker prize twice. I enjoy his witticism and his breathtaking style of writing. He can take the most ordinary of the stories and infuse it with such life that the reader is left spellbound. His writing is rich with allegory, symbolism, and incisive remarks about the current happenings in this fascinatingly bizarre world of ours. This is the third book by Rushdie I've read. My journey with Rushdie started with 'Satanic Verses'- A novel which is fascinating, scandalous, funny, bitter, all at the same time. I moved on to Midnight's Children, which I'm still to finish, not because it's boring but because it can be exhausting for someone who has stayed away from dense readings all his life. I do intend to finish it sometime and hopefully publish a review. Last year when I came across the news that Salman Rushdie is coming up with a new novel, a book about Jinn's, people with magical su...
