Temporality in this divination method is not a linear one, but moving between the visible realm of the present, the accessible realm of the future and the invisible past. There are 16 doors in this divination. Each door is identified by a temporality and material significance. Umm al Raml will enter each door and interpret them to answer the question of \u00bbWhere are the female prophets?\u00ab Growing up in Iran and being influenced by Islamic literature, I was always fascinated with the prophet\u2019s stories of who could speak and see the unseen and invisible realm. However, no women in Islamic literature have borne the title of prophecy; they have been excluded from the criteria of being a leader in the spiritual realm. Consequently, women are excluded from having any political presence. This work will be bilingual (English and Farsi).
