Ruby Usman

Ruby was born in the slums of Karachi, Pakistan. She has experienced sexual abuse at the hands of many men as a child; some of them strangers and others, close family members. She grew up as a Muslim woman and experienced violence as an integral part of society and culture. She now writes about these traditions and hopes that by starting these debates, a new face of Islam is revealed. A new Islam with love, compassion and forgiveness for ALL irrespective of their gender, race and colour.

    Thank, I now know why when I am stressed, why I am contracting my abdomen. Thus causing a hiatal henia and breathing problems with my diaphragm.

      I am so glad that you do… When I found out about this, so many things made sense and once I knew, it was easier to proceed with the healing…
