    Man In India, 93 (4) : 627-643 © Serials Publications FAHMIDA’S WORLDS: GENDER, HOME AND THE GUJARATI MUSLIM DIASPORA IN MID-20TH CENTURY SOUTH AFRICA Thembisa Waetjen This paper focuses on the journalistic writing of Zuleikha Mayat, a housewife living in Durban, South Africa who wrote a weekly column for the newspaper Indian Views between 1956 and 1963. It explores how this body of work drew upon, and constructed, conceptions of belonging and unsettlement in relation to political and customary practices shaping the lives of Muslim women within her diasporic and class milieu. Through opinion, commentary, historical narrative and allegorical fiction, her published writings moralised an ideal of the ‘domestic’ to bridge the worlds of household and nation as domains of action and concern. Falling within a period of expanding apartheid legislation, when the state abandoned its determined push for the ‘repatriation’ of ‘Asiatics’ to instead incorporate ‘Indians’ as a unitary racial group through a specialized political bureaucratic structure, the column ‘Fahmida’s World’ can be seen as an endeavour to imagine conceptions of belonging, home and identity for her readership and to grapple with political exclusion. Keywords: Gujarati, Muslim, South Africa, Indian, Identity, Politics, Resistance Introduction From 1956-1963 Durban housewife and community organizer, Zuleikha Mayat, wrote a regular column for the Gujarati/English language South African newspaper Indian Views. With a readership that extended from the Cape to Mozambique and trickled northward as far as Malawi, the weekly (later bi-weekly) Indian Views covered news on both shores of the Indian Ocean and helped to reproduce a communal imaginary for Gujarati-speaking Muslims in early-mid 20th century southern Africa.
