In a couple of weeks, I'm going on a guided tour though several cities of the former al-Andalus with about 50 fellow . The sponsoring org is of .

We start out in , then on to , (yes, I live here lol), and . I think there's another city in there somewhere.

I could probably have found an English speaking guide for myself here in . But I think the group aspect of it will be a real blessing (and a challenge) in some ways.

Anyway, that is a LOT of in one place!

The Little Mermaid is opening in this weekend... and there's a showing with original voices!

Voice for in theatrical release is the norm in Spain and Italy and I loathe it. But there's so much imported from and elsewhere that they've had to allow for nondubbed films. I am no fan of the machine, but I make exceptions sometimes, especially when Melissa McCarthy and Javier Bardem have starring roles.

The story of The Little Mermaid, someone who changes her outside appearance at great cost for the love of a human, is rather on point for me and many others with .

While the older gravesites at the are not marked, newer graves reflect a Western influence, with more elaborate headstones and cement borders. People buried here recently come from all over the world; Syria is one common place of origin.

One of the 20th century's best known translators of and commentators on the is buried in the #Rauda. This is Muhammad Asad, formerly Leopold Weiss, the son of a barrister and grandson of an orthodox rabbi, born in Poland.

He was a journalist who, after travels in the region where he struck up a friendship with the , reverted to . He then went to for a while where he worked to help create an state.

His translation of and commentary on the Quran, "The Message of the Quran," was published in 1980. You can find it in hardcover and, guess what, there's a lovely app available for Apple and probably Android too.

He spent his last years in . Fortunately for us he wrote an autobiography, "The Road to Mecca," which is well worth your time.

Buried in the of are several who served under in the Civil War. Unsurprisingly, after they served him faithfully, Franco cut them loose to languish after a few years in power.

Lest anyone be horrified by the lack of Working Class Solidarity, there is a centuries-long history of Christians and Muslims collaborating in unexpected ways in wars in this part of the world, depending on who was in power (and who was about not to be).

I believe these gravesites, which are unmarked in the traditional Moroccan manner, are where these men were laid to rest. I hope to confirm this someday Insha Allah.

See alt text for more info on why these sites look so short!

The , or of , was closed completely during the Franco era. It officially reopened for visits and new burials in 2009 thanks to the perseverance of the Muslim community of Granada. It's up the hill apiece from the main city cemetery.

I visited yesterday and I'm hoping to be buried there myself someday Insha Allah.

I've been told that the who settled in Granada brought cypress trees with them from Africa and Arabia (and possibly Damascus). The height and grandeur of the trees are said to have reminded them of SWT.

The , a majority country, is fortifying scientific exploration in , one of the two historic hearts of the medieval intellectual powerhouse of -Andalus.

It's an initiative, about which one might rightly be very unsure, but the movement of resources and intellectual capital from the Muslim world back to the peninsula is noteworthy.

music in for me tonight, God willing.

A lot of these shows are way too late at night for me, but a 9 pm showtime should be ok, at least for an hour.

I'll take the good phone and shoot some video Insha Allah.
