DESCRIPTION:The Forum at Grace Cathedral presents Asra Q. Nomani: "Alone in Mecca, 
 Together in Spirit"      NOTE: This is the first in a three-part special 
 series on the Middle East  Guest: Asra Q. Nomani, former Wall Street 
 Journal correspondent  Moderator: Rev. Alan Jones, Dean of Grace Cathedral  
   In Islamic culture, the law of zina allows for great control of women 
 within state sanctioned interpretations of the sacred texts, including 
 extreme punishment for single mothers. Asra Nomani is a trailblazer in 
 every sense of the word, as she risked her life in 2003 to make the 
 pilgrimage to Mecca with her infant son. In this very special Mother’s 
 Day Forum, Nomani shares her new book, Standing Alone in Mecca: An American 
 Woman’s Fight for the Soul of Islam, and discusses the worldwide struggle 
 for women’s rights in the Muslim community.   Information:
