Go forth & nominate!

The 9th annual Brass Crescent Awards are open for nominations for the best blogs in the Islamosphere!

We hope you’ll consider nominating the Love InshAllah blog for best new blog, best group blog and your favorite post on this site for best post/series.

We’re proud to have created a space that nurtures and highlights the diversity and richness of your wisdom and perspectives!

Nominate your favorite blogs, here.
