Jump to navigationJump to searchTaqwacore quartet from the 2009 novel Osama van Halen by Michael Muhammad Knight.
Second band was the Zaytuna Rejects : four more brown boys, heroin - skinny, with sleeveless shirts and spiked bracelets loose on their wrists, the singer holding his drink and spilling beer as he slouched behind the microphone, working this detached crooner-punk style like he was too cool to care either way.

Zaytuna means Olive and is a prominent mosque and cultural institution in the city of Tunis, Tunisia, founded in 732 C.E.
