Saidi's answer to these questions. She tells the story of thirteen years her family traveled and lived in the Middle East and North Africa, evading capture and seeking refuge in Islamic countries. Time and again, Aisha, Ja'far, and their children would settle into a new home for a year or two, make friends, and learn the local language. But they would be forced to flee after encountering dangerous political turmoil or legal problems in Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Pakistan, or the Islamic Republic of Iran. Then, they would be homeless again, a fugitive family car-camping by the roadside, with thousands of miles to travel in search of safety.","brand":"Redpoll Media","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47775999459479,"sku":"9798988006107","price":1628.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798988006107.webp?v=1777993688","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/a-doorway-in-tunis-memoir-of-a-fugitive-family-in-muslim-lands-9798988006107","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
