Living Islam Out Loud presents the first true generation of American Muslim women who have always identified as both American and Muslim. Without previous examples of how to be American Muslim women, these pioneers have had to forge new identities for themselves and for future generations. Writing from diverse experiences and perspectives, the contributors include Sarah El-Tantawi, who has spoken on Muslim issues on Politically Incorrect and Hardball, and Asra Nomani, a former reporter for the Wall Street Journal. These voices, among others, speak out about the hijab (a traditional headscarf), relationships, sex and sexuality, activism, spirituality, and more.

Saleemah's story



Crossroads


How I met God



To be young, gifted, black, American, Muslim, and woman




Love


Remembering love



My own worst enemy



Marrying a believer



Finding home



Fumbling toward ecstasy



On the edge of belonging




The strongest of faith


A day in the life



Hijra from Harlem



The Muslim in the mirror



Being the leader I want to see in the world



An Islamic bill of rights for women in mosques


An Islamic bill of rights for women in the bedroom



Soul journeys


A meditation on the clearing



A siren song



Blessed divine woman



My son the mystic



My sister's prayer
