What is “Islāmic-Feminism”/What is a “Muslim-Feminist”?!!!
Author’s note: Since Feminism has taken a very significant foothold, within the greater Muslim-World, in our modern-age, as a direct-result of the atrocities brought on by Misogyny, many Muslims, both Men & Women, whom are religiously in favor of Feminism, have decided to coin the term “Islamic-Feminism/Muslim-Feminist”, to identify with the greater Feminist-Movement, with an Continue reading

The Perils of MSA-Life, anywhere/everywhere:
Author’s note: This is an anonymous-advice, that someone, whom is a Muslim, would like to give, to Muslims generally, and also, to Muslims involved in MSA (Muslim Students Association) work, whether you’re in High School, or at the College level. I think that this advice is very commendable, and even anonymously, I’m sure that it took Continue reading

In Memorandum of Steven Biko:
Author’s note: A Somali-Muslim sister decided to dedicate a poem, to this African leader. However, she wants to remain anonymous, which is cool with me.

My Wounded-Knee & my Broken-Heart: The Untold Tragedy of the Native American
Author’s note: The infamous Wounded-Knee massacre, in 1890, officially, marked the official end of true Native-American sovereignty, within North America, particularly within the newly expanding United States. This, even though a massacre more than a battle, is historically considered the last armed-conflict of the officially recognized “Indian-Wars” era. This event once and for all broke Continue reading

Camelot: Unplugged
Excalibur was never my strength; Lancelot was always treacherous. I never trusted Guinevere, the Round Table Knights ever malicious. The street-life my kingdom, the projects my castles. The hustlers, shooters and stick-up kids, my vassals. My upbringing like the water of a moat: stale, stagnant. No drawbridges to escape from my illusionary palace. The dregs Continue reading

Triangles and Eyes:
Your eyes behold nothing but corruption and lies But you don’t have to be wise to uncover the disguise Behind the music and rhymes To them money, power and deception is the prize But looking fly and getting high isn’t getting you to the seventh sky It’s easy to deny But when you understand why Continue reading

The Realities of Being a Hifzh-Kid:
Author’s note: I have chosen to ask some people, whom I know personally, to write about their thoughts, views on how it really is to be a Hafizh (a Memorizer of the Qur’an).

Kristin Davis, popular actress, of the world-wide critically acclaimed T.V. & movie series, “Sex In The City”, very recently did a commercial for Oxfam, an internationally-renown non-profit organization, geared towards establishing food-justice in under-developed countries, particularly.
