Muslim Girl magazine to launch UK digital edition

Editor-in-chief Ausma Khan said that the reception of Muslim Girl in North America has been positive, with the exception of some criticism that not all the girls in the magazine wear headscarves. “However, the girls themselves – both hijab-wearing and non-hijab-wearing – demonstrate much more acceptance of each other and solidarity. We’re very inspired by that.”
She says “There is a real lack of representation in mainstream media and though we expect that to change over the next generation, this is a critical time for Muslims to engage in their broader society.Muslim girls were telling us that they felt isolated and marginalised, and to us the magazine represented a real opportunity to connect girls together and give them a place where their voices could be heard.”
The magazine is published by ExecuGo Media in Toronto and distributed worldwide by RCS in Los Angeles.
