As Salaam Alaikum. Bonjour, how are you ? My name is Nafisa Sassine. Believe me when I tell you that the life of a Muslim woman in the City of Ottawa, Ontario, isn't easy. There's tension between Arab Christian and Arab Muslim communities in town. My parents Ahmed and Mariam Sassine moved here from the Republic of Lebanon to escape all that. They're overprotective and constantly warning me about Western guys seducing me away from Islam. If they only knew...I'm seeing a Haitian guy named Isaac "Ishaq" Mondesir whom I met at Carleton University. He's a proud Muslim convert and a civil engineering student but I doubt my parents would approve of us being together. They're, um, a tad bit closeminded. I won't let that stop me, though. A girl's gotta live her life, you know ? Stay tuned for more.
