Kalimat: Magazine Feature.

I'm ecstatic about Kalimat magazine's fall issue, where my thesis project is featured. 

"Kalimat Magazine is committed to rejuvenating Arabic culture by providing an outlet for political, cultural and social expression within the Arab region and its Diaspora. At the same time, it is a visual communication tool that serves to change Western perception of Arabs. The purpose is to be an open outlet for expression and to increase participation within the cultural/creative scene, therefore, the content is created by Arab people, the writers are Arab, the editor is Arab, the people featured are Arab."

Muslima: Parent's guide book on Islam.

Part of my thesis project was a parent guidebook on Islam. Since parents are an integral part in a child's life, I felt intrigued to write this book; dispelling common misconceptions and misunderstandings on Islam.

Religious Stereotypes.

This book was the reason I chose to delve deeper into the issue of negative religious stereotypes and ways to solve them. It actually is my one of my favorite books I wrote so far. The book is one hundred and fifteen pages.

Muslima project dolls.

And that's me (if you hadn't noticed the resemblance)...

And that's Nina...

P.S. I'd rather not mention who they were made by since it wasn't a pleasant experience at all.
