How do you explain why Eid never falls on the same date each year; why it is that Halal butchers also sell teapots and alarm clocks; how do you make clear to the plumber that it's essential the toilet is installed within sitting-arm's reach of the tap?    Zarqa Nawaz has seen and done it all.   And it's not always easy to get things right with the community either: Zarqa tells of being asked to leave the DBW (Dead Body Washing) committee after making unsuitable remarks; of undertaking the momentous trip to Mecca with her husband, without the children, thinking (most incorrectly) that it will also be a nice time to have uninterrupted sex; of doing the unthinkable, and creating Little Mosque on the Prairie, a successful TV sitcom about that very (horrified, then proud) community.       You have to laugh.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49575742734609,"sku":"GOR006393683","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49639345324305,"sku":"GOR006771673","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49728510230801,"sku":"NGR9780349005935","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50232496783633,"sku":"CIN0349005931G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51080545304849,"sku":"CIN0349005931VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0349005931.jpg?v=1772792177"},{"product_id":"laughing-all-the-way-to-the-mosque-book-zarqa-nawaz-9781443416931","title":"Laughing All The Way To The Mosque","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSHORTLISTED FOR THE LEACOCK MEDAL FOR HUMOUR, THE KOBO EMERGING WRITER PRIZE AND TWO SASKATCHEWAN BOK AWARDS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eZarqa Nawaz has always straddled two cultures. She's just as likely to be agonizing over which sparkly earrings will pimp out her hijab as to be flirting with the Walmart meat manager in a futile attempt to secure halal chicken the day before Eid. Little Mosque on the Prairie brought Zarqa's own laugh-out-loud take on her everyday culture clash to viewers around the world. And now, in Laughing All the Way to the Mosque, she tells the sometimes absurd, sometimes challenging, always funny stories of being Zarqa in a western society. From explaining to the plumber why the toilet must be within sitting arm's reach of the water tap (hint: it involves a watering can and a Muslim obsession with cleanliness down there) to urging the electrician to place an eye-height electrical socket for her father-in-law's epilepsy-inducing light-up picture of the Kaaba, Zarqa paints a hilarious portrait of growing up in a household where, according to her father, the Quran says it's okay to eat at McDonald's--but only if you order the McFish.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50419886358801,"sku":"CIN1443416932VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50497197015313,"sku":"CIN1443416932G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1443416932.jpg?v=1751147841"},{"product_id":"jameela-green-ruins-everything-book-zarqa-nawaz-9780063271609","title":"Jameela Green Ruins Everything","description":"Her quest soon lands her at the center of an international plan targeting the leader of the terrorist organizationa scheme that puts Jameela and count-less others, including her hapless husband and clever but disapproving daughter, at risk.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50999209394449,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":50999212441873,"sku":"NIN9780063271609","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52974703509777,"sku":"GOR014675020","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0063271605.jpg?v=1750842697"},{"product_id":"cosmetic-herbs-book-zarqa-nawaz-9783848443079","title":"Cosmetic Herbs","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52762364641553,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52762365526289,"sku":"NIN9783848443079","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783848443079.jpg?v=1763599917"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/collections\/author-books-by-zarqa-nawaz.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
