sister-hood is an award-winning digital magazine spotlighting the diverse voices of women of Muslim heritage.
sister-hood is a digital magazine and a series of live events. We create platforms for women of Muslim heritage to speak for themselves, rather than being spoken for or spoken about. sister-hood challenges stereotypes and promotes the fearless, progressive, creative voices of women of Muslim heritage.
sister-hood is currently on hiatus whilst we work on our relaunch. The site will still be available for your reading pleasure.
We'd like to thank all of our readers and contributors for their support over the years and look forward to coming back bigger, better and stronger.

You’re free they say
You’re free they say,
You have choice they told me,
At what cost though?
I didn’t know.
I have free will I read,
So long in the lines I keep.
That scripture spoke to me.
My soul though,
Will guide me.
To let go of worldly desires,
To give up what my heart desires,
It reads…
That’s the devil tempting me.
A leash I have,
I follow the path.
But that voice,
I cannot rid,
It chants the same tune,
The devil speaks.
I am free though.
I have choice.
The irony,
The book has a path for me.
