WRITER'S GUIDELINE

We encourage input and submissions. We prefer queries for articles and features. Please be brief and to the point, by e-mail. The letter should detail the story, the angle or angles you will pursue; what makes this story important and useful for our publication and the Muslim community; and why you are the person to write it. We do not accept queries for fiction or poetry, for these, we must see the manuscript before making a decision to publish.

Send all your correspondence through this website. Put the words "EDITORIAL SUBMISSIONS" in the subject line of the e-mail. Please send your communications in the body of the email rather than as an attachment. Also, kindly tell us a little about yourself and your experience and background as a writer. If you have clips you can send us via e-mail, or web addresses of pages that contain your work, please send us a representative sampling (no more than three or four, please). We do our best to respond to all inquiries, but be aware that we sometimes may be inundated. If you have not heard back from us after three weeks, assume that we will not be able to use your idea or submission.

For Professionals:
We have special offers for articles from professionals in their areas of expertise for the benefit of the Muslim community. Please contact us at 703-354-1025 for more information.
