MPV'S NEW BOOK IS HERE!! PROGRESSIVE MUSLIM IDENTITIES - PERSONAL STORIES FROM THE U.S. AND CANADA - here's an excerpt: "There remains much work to be done to create, nurture and foster inclusive tawhidic Muslim spaces where diversity and inclusivity are celebrated, not just given lip service. The inherent dignity of every human being regardless of gender, gender identity, orientation, race, linguistic group, dis/abilty or class must be recognized as Allah-given and exemplified by the Qura'nic declaration that Allah is closer to each one of us than our own jugular vein." El Farouk Khaki, Leader of Salaam Canada, Progressive Muslim Identities. |
