The Torn Veil: The Best-selling Story of Gulshan Esther

What an incredible true story. I will never repeat the Lord's Prayer again without remembering how the author heard it for the first time. I couldn't put the book down!

Lets make this short and sweet. After reading Gulshan's book (on one rainy day), I was over taken by emotions. Her story will touch your heart, your mind and hopefully bring you to your knees causing your soul to cry out for your creator. I immediately shared Gulshan's story with three of my good friends, which lead to sharing my copy of the book. In just one month this book has landed in over five homes and ten more books ordered. I then went on Google to find Gulshan's video testimony while she was in France. Prior to reading her book, I read the book "I Dared to Call Him Father" written by a women (now deceased) Bilquis Sheikh. Gulshan and Bilquis crossed paths in their lives and brushed shoulders with some of the same people. Gulshan was in her teens and Bilquis was in her forties. I HIGHLY recommend this book for Muslims, Christians, Jews and non-faith based readers.

Great testimony about her encounter with the living God, helped me understand things I didn't know about the Islamic religion. How to be better a witness to Muslims. I have always believe that in order to convince Muslims about God and Jesus, they have to experience it themselves as this brave young woman found out, Her sister brought back alive when declared dead by doctors was an unbelievable testimony but the greatest thing she brought up was the veil Muslim women wear to keep their faces from this world corruption is the same thing that keep them blind and from believing in the living God or person of Jesus they reject so adamantly. I recommend this book to any unbelievers as to believers of Christ as she challenge many aspects of religion in our world.

Educational, thought-provoking, incredible life story.

God is still in the miracle business but more than that He is the business of fulfilling His Word. His Word says that "if you seek me, you will find me if you seek me with all of your heart." This book reveals what that looks like in the human experience. I am usually a slow reader and I read this book in 1 and 1/2 days. I could hardly sleep wanting to get up and finish it. Loved it, loved it, loved it.

I had never heard of Gulshan Esther before reading this book. Hers is an amazing story that is very well-written. It gives non-Muslims a window into that world, from a sympathetic source. Jesus Christ is making Himself known in closed Muslim cultures through visions and wonders all over the world! This book was so good, I ordered multiple copies to give as gifts -- recipients said they have read and re-read it multiple times!

This was the story of girl from a practicing Muslim family and her search for a physical healing which, when found, also found a spiritual healing in Jesus. She stayed strong through persecution and family rejection because of the peace Jesus brought her. It was a well written easy to read account.

Her strong faith gave her courage to face dangers (including death threats from two of her brothers). Not only was she healed, but Jesus appeared to her! Her story will inspire you to stand firm in your faith. For a biographical article that doesn't give away the story, go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulshan_Esther

Excellent read because it is a true story and reveals the sovereignty of God in our lives. God reads the heart and responds accordingly. No matter where one is; no matter what ones circumstances. Our constraints and limitations are no restriction to the almighty, sovereign, God of the universe who condescends to come to us personally, intimately, lovingly and all powerfully, as He reads our hearts and not our words..... God is real and this story reveals Him in the life of one who is seeking the truth without really even knowing the God she seeks.

This autobiography/biography is well-written and very readable. It shared Gulshan Esther's story in a way that I felt I was almost there. I learned more about the Muslim faith as well as why/how she left her faith and what happened to her as a result.I borrowed this book from a friend and, after reading it, ordered a copy for myself. I would definitely recommend this book to others.

Dieses Buch ist die englische Version des deutschen Titels: "Der Schleier zerriss": die Autobiographie einer ehemals gelähmten, jungen muslimischen Frau, die den Koran intensiv liest, und dort auf die darin erwähnten Heilungswunder von Jesus stößt, und ihn jahrelang um Heilung bittet. Dann hat sie eine Begegnung mit Jesus, wird geheilt, und wird eine bekennende und hingegebene Nachfolgerin, die auch Verfolgung erleben muss. Interessant ist, dass die Autorin nach ihrer Bekehrung nicht mit dem Islamm abrechnet, sondern sich nur demütig zu Jesus hält, und Andersgläubige nicht verurteilt.

Inspirational, interesting. Would like to find out more about Ester Gulshan but hard to find any info on how legit this is. But either way, good read.

Very inspiring for all who seek the Truth!"Seek and you shall find it!"I read it in one night only!
