Based on a little-known piece of history #SafiyyahsWar throws a spotlight on the Muslims living in the Grand Mosque who helped Jews escape from Paris during the Nazi occupation. Strong themes of family & friendship, bravery & the power of faith. Hiba Noor Khan Andersen Press

The true story of the Resistance run from the Great Mosque in Paris. And what an opener. Thanks so much for sending Andersen Press I know I’m going to love it - and our students too Hiba Noor Khan #SafiyyahsWar
Having recently enjoyed #SafiyyahsWar Hiba Noor Khan I bought #TheGrandMosqueOfParis - a beautiful picture book created by Karen Gray Ruelle & Deborah Durland Desaix, which is a nonfiction account of a little-known story of the Holocaust & interfaith relations. Holiday House Publishing, Inc.
Sobbing at my current read, #SafiyyahsWar , set in Paris in 1940. 'The cries from broken hearts only speak one language. Their screams echo up to the heavens like no other sound. My Lord, grant ease to the broken-hearted.' Grant, too, that we might know peace now.
