I am a practicing and God-fearing Muslimah who cares deeply about the state of the world. According to my family I am caring, considerate, social and outgoing. I am dependable and have integrity. I love great coffee and enjoy cooking a variety of cuisines and trying out new recipes. I am a writer with a Honors B.A. from the University of Toronto and am currently pursuing my M.A. at Duke University. I come from a highly educated, practicing family, and have traveled to and lived in many countries. I am creative, artistic, and enjoy writing poetry. Islam is the biggest priority in my life and is the reason why I am passionate about things I care about, like fighting racism and Islamophobia through my writing and research. I’m a cultural critic and I write about movies and TV and how they influence the way we see ourselves and the world. I appreciate the small blessings of life and would like to share this joy with my spouse inshaAllah.

I'm looking for a practicing and God-fearing Muslim, who has compassion and strength of character, but who can also laugh with me and share my interests. I highly value genuineness and sincerity. I would like someone who is family-oriented, well-educated and hardworking, and committed to making the world a better place. Preference for someone who grew up in US or Canada.
