It was a great honour and surprise to be invited to recite Qur'an at the women's mukabela. I was welcomed to sit with the #femalereciters at the front of the Hadžijska džamija. Usually only local hafizat are allowed to participate. I was touched by their hospitality and kindness. pic.twitter.com/qB1KftDct3

The Qur'an is a recited book which touches the hearts of males and females. Men do not have ownership of the Qur'an. People should listen to the recitation and focus on the meaning, rather than criticize the reciter's gender, colour, or dress. #femalereciters pic.twitter.com/zGmrpyaPx4

The women's mukabela is a special part of the Ramadan tradition in Sarajevo. I spoke to @aa_balkans @biogradlia about my experience attending and hearing #femalereciters. https://t.co/jb9twDCO5F pic.twitter.com/GjZM8ZvS2J
