Muslim Sensitivity/Beta Reading
I provide FREE sensitivity/authenticity reading and/or beta reading for the following topics:
Practicing Muslim/Hijabi/Niqabi
First generation Bengali-American
Desi culture/South Asian culture
Anything Islamic
Islamophobia
Post-9/11 (in New York City)
There are Muslim sensitivity readers out there that charge for their services and/or aren’t practicing which compromises the “Muslim” in Muslim authenticity. As a practicing, unapologetic Muslim who is constantly learning more about her faith, I don’t cut corners or shy away from certain topics when it comes to portraying Muslims who practice their religion without the need to filter through a “western” lens. This service is free for the time-being.***
If you’re interested in my services, please fill out this form and I will contact you shortly. Or click the button below.
***PLEASE NOTE: I will NOT read anything that is against Islam (this includes promotion of major sins such as polytheism, sodomy (LGBTQ), incest, bestiality, pedophilia, debasement/perversion of any historical and religious figures such as Muhammad peace be upon him), graphic depictions and glorification of violence and/or abuse, and erotica/smut.
Are you a Muslim who wants more than just a beta read for your book? Consider pitching to Shaherazad Shelves, a modest publishing house dedicated to publishing Muslim voices. Check it out here: SHAHERAZAD SHELVES.
