In the summer of 2008, as the author prepared to embark on his graduate studies in Khartoum, Sudan, little did he know that this journey would thrust him into a whole new world. One that few Americans would see and the end of an era for the Sudanese people. The three years he spent in Sudan was a curious historical moment that would mirror what was happening inside of him.

Thoughts From Sudan is an account of this turbulent rite of passage the author, a young American convert to Islam, endured while studying Arabic in Sudan between the years 2008 and 2011. Not only was this a major transitional period in the Sudanese society, but in the author's life as well. Based on a series of monthly emails sent to loved ones, he chronicled his travels and brutally honest commentary on culture, politics, and religion in Sudan vis-a-vis his American paradigm. An atypical travel log, this book provides real-time insights into the struggles of an American Muslim and his search for spiritual knowledge while the world whips and runs around him.
