EP 151; Ramin Abbas Has MAJOR Questions with Ahmad Saber

Hi friends! This week we are joined by the charming Ahmad Saber to talk about his new book Ramin Abbas Has MAJOR Questions coming out this week! We're talk about the complications with being queer and Muslim, Catholic and a fan of the Tony wining broadway show WICKED! And much more! Theme by Man with Roses Book description below: Ramin Abbas has spent his whole life obeying his parents, his Imam, and, of course, Allah—no questions asked. But when he starts crushing on the ridiculously handsome captain of the soccer team, so many things he’d always been so sure about are becoming questions: 1. Music is haram. But what if the Wicked soundtrack is the only thing keeping you sane because you’re being forced to play on the soccer team? With Captain Handsome?! 2. A boy crush is double haram, and Ramin’s parents will never accept it. But can he really be the only Muslim on Earth who feels this way? 3. Allah is merciful and makes no mistakes. Then isn’t Ramin just the way Allah intended him to be? And so why should living your truth but losing everything—or living a lie and losing yourself—have to be a choice?!
