friend of Allah, who was uncompromising in his conviction of Tawhid [8]. Sa’y Sa’y literally means to strive, to make an effort to reach an aim. Running between the mountains – Safa and Marwa – seven times, you act like Hagar, the mother of infant Ishmael. After Abraham left her and their son, near the valley of Mecca, Hagar had no food, no water, no shelter, neither for herself nor for her child, but only uncompromising, relentless faith that the God of Abraham will not leave her and her son…

Initially, I enjoyed the imagery, the same reason I was drawn to “The Symphony”. Now I realize that it is more than that. I didn’t remember Bulkington, but Ishmael did. Usually I wouldn’t think that just a sentence was good enough. It is in the “six-inch chapter”(106), possibly the shortest of all, that revealed the most to me. “while the wildest winds of heaven and earth conspire to cast her on the treacherous…

Some children that are old as seven commit inconceivable violations, such as killing parents and siblings, striking neighbors, torching the villages they once called home.
