Tamam Kahn's poetry carries bright exuberance, as well as empathy and sorrow. Her work is inspired by the mystical Middle East, and her time in Morocco and Syria. The poems are anchored with her research on women from early Islam to today. Anecdotes from history are mixed with today's unchosen difficulties. The reader is introduced to the remarkable Rabia of Basra (Rabi'a al-Adawiyya), eighth-century leader on the path of Unity of Being. What would it be like to meet with her today? Across the Difficult presents tales of other famous mothers such as Eve (known as Grandmother Eve in Arabia), Hagar, Sayyida Zaynab-granddaughter of Prophet Muhammad, her niece Ruqayya, and Fatima al-Fihri, founder of the great Qarawiyyin University, who changed history with her life's work. The brutal difficulties of living at this time in countries such as Afghanistan, Syria, Ukraine and other countries, are included in the final poems.Winner of The BookFest First Place award for Poetry, Spring 2024.

The Bowl of Saqi is a collection of 366 aphorisms (first published in England in late 1921 or early 1922) to be used as themes for meditation for each day of the year. These aphorisms were selected from the teachings of the Sufi master Hazrat Inayat Khan (1882-1927) by his disciples, many of them coming from his lectures and personal notebooks. The Bowl of Saqi is a treasured resource of spiritual inspiration for Inayati Sufis everywhere.
