Justin Trudeau is listening - it is about terrorism! For details about conversation, see my book 'The Broken Silence'.

So pleased to share that I had a chance to do another Book reading. Here are some pictures from the event. 

Here's another picture of a reader with his set of books he is about to read.

Q: How substantial reader interest was generated?
​A: A simple comparison between the book cover and its contents!

Book signing event at Indigo Barrhaven, Ottawa on 15 February 2020

 January 29, 2017 was a sad day after Alexandre Bissonette opened fire in the Quebec City mosque killing 6 innocent worshippers and injuring 19 of them who were all engrossed in remembering the CREATOR. My book takes up the alarming issue of terrorism and the rising tide of Islamophobia - the editorial writer points out, "The Broken Silence explores the real causes of terrorism and its remedies. It also seeks to help non-Muslims to better understand this ancient religion and calls out to Muslims to explore the real values of Islam and regain its true spirit." ​

These 6 pathetically perished for no fault of theirs! How sad!
