Nobody can fast without hav- ing a degree of patience, which is mentioned in the Quran as one of the qualities of someone who will go to Paradise. For example, “I (God) have rewarded them this Day [with Paradise] for what they have endured patiently; they are indeed the ones that are truly triumphant!” (23:111) As successfully completing fasting in Ramadan requires patience, so does entrance into Paradise. In fact, Paradise requires two kinds of patience: one is proactive and the other reactive. The proactive type is striving to adopt a way of life sanctioned by God.

  • Golden Thread Productions Presents Think You
    Golden Thread Productions presents Golden Thread Productions presents Think you know the Middle East? Think Again! Think you know the Middle East? Think Again! May Allam Artin Der Minassians May Allam Artin Der Minassians May Allam Artin Der Minassians WELCOME TO REORIENT 2019! The idea of an evening of short plays emerged from a need for our plays to include the many countries and peoples that we include in Golden Thread’s broad and inclusive definition of the Middle East. This was – and continues to be – a personal mission for me, having grown up as an Armenian minority in Iran and raised both Christian and Muslim in my mixed family. I have always wanted Golden Thread’s work to reflect the many layers of our identity, perspective, and aesthetic. But of course that is impossible even for a festival of short plays. It has become clear that no amount of clever programming can fully reflect the complexities of our lives. And so, each ReOrient becomes a litmus of our collective state of mind, which is by itself an impressive purpose to serve. This year’s ReOrient is no different. What stands out most is the singular voice of women. Women playwrights and women characters speak to us about privilege, power, and the improbability of fulfillment. Veteran playwrights and newcomers alike struggle with finding the right answers. They ask, what happens when women — particularly “ethnic” women — take power? How do we gain agency and achieve personal fulfillment? What happens when we have no control? Or when our values do not reflect those of the world we live in? These are profound questions, particularly when addressing universal concerns such as health care, immigration, and war.
