Welcome to the Creative Writing hub of Kalimah, where the art of storytelling and the beauty of verse come alive. This section is a celebration of the diverse literary talents of Muslim women. Here, you’ll find two distinct yet interconnected realms of expression: Stories and Poetry. Each offers a unique window into the experiences, imaginations and hearts of our community’s writers.
Join us as we journey through narratives that range from the deeply personal to the universally resonant. These stories may take you down the winding paths of our lives, reflect on cultural and societal themes, or transport you to new worlds born from vivid imaginations. Every story here is a testament to the narrative power and creative spirit of Muslim women.
A sanctuary of rhythm, rhyme and raw emotion. Where thoughts and feelings are woven into verse, where the unspoken finds voice and where the mundane is transformed into the extraordinary. These verses not only echo the personal insights of their authors but also resonate with the shared experiences of our community and beyond.
At Kalimah, every word counts and every voice matters. We invite you to immerse yourself in these pages, to explore, reflect and perhaps find a piece of yourself in the stories and poems shared here. We warmly invite all visitors to explore and engage with the works of Muslim women and experience the diversity of our creative expressions.
Kalimah is a platform created to empower Muslim women and amplify their voices through creative writing and more. We publish original works of any genre by Muslim women. While Kalimah is an unapologetically Muslim space, we also accept submissions from women of other marginalised communities, as long as it adheres to our guidelines which can be found HERE.
