Barsa is a 2007 Malayalam novel written by Khadija Mumtaz. The story deals with the haunting and agonising questions of Sabida, a devout and educated Muslim lady, a doctor, who spent six years in a hospital in Saudi Arabia. It won critical acclaim for its forceful but humorous presentation of the restrictions under which Muslim women are forced to live and was hailed a milestone in Malayalam literature. It won many awards including the Kerala Sahitya Akademi Award (2010), Cherukad Award (2010) and K. V. Surendranath Literary Award (2008). A Kannada translation of Barsa was released by the Karavali Lekhakiyara Vachakiyara Sangha in February 2012.
