Day 7 - Adnan Onart: “Ramadan in Dunkin Donuts”

Revealing Ramadan: 30 Days, 30 Voices [mp3, 2:46]

by Trent Gilliss, senior editor

Adnan Onart and his wifeToday, we round out the first week of Ramadan with a personal account of a Turkish Muslim living in Boston, Massachusetts. Adnan Onart and his wife are active members of a Unitarian-Universalist congregation where, he says, they can best live out their Muslim faith. He recites his poem “Ramadan in Dunkin Donuts” on this seventh day of Islam’s holiest month.

Check back on this blog each day or on our Facebook page to hear a new voice in our “Revealing Ramadan” series. If you’re the on demand type or simply need a more automated form of listening, we’ve produced a special podcast feed that’s available now. Oh, and a special show too!
