| This is from a friend who writes for a magazine. Any ideas for her?? Let me know or msg me and I can give her direct email. Assalaamu Alaikum I need your help on something. I am doing this assignment where I have to search out Muslim women who have contributed something outstanding to their respective professions or in their Islamic community. It is part of that article that I have done on Islam and feminism. I realize "outstanding" is relative, however I am having a hard time narrowing the field down to specifics. So pretty much anyone who you deem as noteworthy, inspirational, and extraordinary in what they have accomplishment...is that specific enough? It could be teachers, leaders, business women, reporters or carpenters. If someone comes to mind who fits this, let me know. It would be a plus if you had contact information for them as well. I am trying to just make a list before the mid-October, so before then would be appreciated. It would be extra special if you knew some women who fill this requirement that are from the west coast. All I am getting are east coasters. |

| [slm] Is this for that ICNA magazine, Al Noor? One of your friends had written an article in there. It seems like a pretty good magazine. |
