Additional info

Any piece submitted to this journal must be about Muslims or an Islamic issue. This means that at least one character in your fiction piece must be a Muslim, your poetry must discuss a topic for or about Muslims, and your artwork must showcase Islam in some shape or form. This does not mean you need to be Muslim. You will not have to prove your faith to anyone at this journal in order to be published. You may belong to another faith, or to no faith, as long as you write about the above ideas. We sometimes accept previously published work, although it really depends on the quality of the piece.
