The topics ranged from prayer practices and women's rights to the harrowing politics of extreme, Islamic terrorism.

Karachi - Traveling to Karachi from the US is not easy. But traveling back is even worse. I returned a couple weeks ago from my trip and have been coping with the usual jet lag and GI/respiratory baggage that comes from an extended trip to the far side. The pace of events during Ashara itself was too hectic for me to have any time to post while I was there, but now that I am back and mostly recovered, I can retrospectively write about the experience. And in retrospect, Karachi deserves a spotlight... Read the full post here » The post Karachi appeared first on City of Brass.
