The Muslim blogosphere is evolving as a gargantuan resource for understanding Muslim identity. I thank you kindly for reading and welcome you to my personal hub(b) of British 'muslimness'.
← Yes, that is I in cartoon form. I designed this along with the Muslimness team profiles.
First off, you should know I can get on your nerves—although I do not intend to—for a variety of values I try to act on. I sound meaner than I am. For this I apologise, a "little", well I do... sort of, no, not really no.
Zaufishan (pronounced Zou-Fee-Shaan), in Arabic زو فيشان, is a Persian name literally translating as 'spreading light'.
I AM...
- A British Muslim woman, with a northern acksent.
- The leader of an Anglo-Pak-African family, with a penchant for studying genealogy.
- A student to inter-racial societies, literature, and Islamic law.
- A graphic designer, an illustrator, a technology freak, martial-arts-lover, pro-active, environmentally alert and I love to learn languages. (Mujhe Urdu bhi athi hai: I also know Urdu). و العربية (wal `Arbiya: and a little Arabic).
- I'm a techy maven, freedom friendly, a scientist and a cr*p baker.
