-Adam Haris, President and Founder of portalislam.net "Kashmir shares the pain, trauma, confusion and love within the hearts of Muslims everywhere through words that seep deep into the pores of humanity. Her words are heartbreaking, yet hopeful. She pens our inner conflicts on paper as a remedy for healing of all people. If you want to feel understood, read 'Nafsi'."
-Linda Sarsour, an Award-winning American Muslim Racial Justice and Civil Rights Activist from New York City "The voice of the poetess soars in this very spiritual collection of verse. In a time of war for liberation, Kashmir Maryam sets herself to the vital task of freeing our Selves from their enslavement to earthly desires. This debut publication is a testament to the vision and ability of an already accomplished artist, one we hope will continue to inspire ethical resistance and community reflection among the people of faith and conscience."
