HIJAB BUTCH BLUES by LAMYA H.

Alright, changing it up a bit with my book stuff but this one hit home with me. The author draws very interesting parallels between stories in the Quran and her experiences as a gay muslim woman that are very interesting. And if you think you can’t be muslim and gay, or wear a hijab and be gay, or even tackle muslim culture and queerness in one, then you’re bound to be pleasantly proved wrong with this one.

there's too much animosity towards queer people who want to practice their faith/spirituality, both within their respective religions and within the LGBTQIA+ community.

we need to protect and lift up our queer siblings of faith.

our queer Christians.

our queer Jews.

our queer Muslims.

our queer Hindus.

our queer Buddhists.

our queer Sikhs.

our queer Baháʼís.

our queer Wiccans/Pagans.

our queer Shintos.

our queer siblings of indigenous/folk faiths.

our queer SBNR siblings.

our queer siblings of whatever religion/spiritual systems they observe.

you're all beautiful and valid and loved and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. 💖

every time i see someone exclude, mock or ignore queer religious people's existence (whether from bigoted religious people or bigoted queer people) i think it should be perfectly acceptable for us to punch them in the face for that

Sending my love and support to neurodivergent/disabled Muslims this Ramadan.

Muslims who can’t fast for health reasons. Your health always comes first. If you need to eat due to medication, diabetes, ED recovery, or any other reason, it’s good that you’re doing that. There’s so much more to Ramadan than just fasting.

Muslims who struggle with remembering salah or reciting Quran. Disabled Muslims who can’t perform the movements of salah the way that other Muslims do. Nonverbal Muslims who can’t pray or recite with mouth words at all.

Muslims who are immunocompromised and can’t go to things like taraweeh or iftar or praying in the masjid. I know that it’s isolating, I hope you’re able to still enjoy Ramadan and find community. Please keep yourself safe this month and always.

Muslimahs who can’t wear hijab due to sensory issues.

Muslims with sleep disorders who struggle to wake up for Fajr.

Muslims who struggle with addiction to alcohol, drugs, substances in general. Your addiction is not your fault and having addictions is not haram.

Muslims who are told that mental illness isn’t real, whose issues are swept aside.

I also want to give a special shout-out to queer Muslims. Muslims who are not able to present as the gender that they are. Muslims who don’t know which side of the mosque to go to. Muslims being pressured to find straight relationships, who have to hide their real relationships or the fact that they don’t want a relationship at all. Muslims who are out and proud, Muslims who are closeted. It goes the other way too. Muslims who face Islamophobia within the Queer community. Allah SWT made you just the way you’re supposed to be, you are not haram.

Shoutout to reverts as well, especially reverts who don’t have a Muslim community. Maybe no one around you even knows you’re Muslim at all. Maybe you’re eating and fasting and praying alone all month, but that won’t be forever. You’ll find your community.

Remember: “With hardship comes ease.” It’s okay if Ramadan is not an easy time for you, things will get better. Allah SWT tests those that He loves the most. You are not alone this month, you are never alone.

reminder to all queer people of faith that you don't owe anyone an explanation or justification of "how you can be queer and [insert religion here] at the same time."

if they're hounding on you about it, chances are they're not gonna change their minds anyway.

don't waste your spoons on them if you don't have enough.

[what-shitfuckery-is-this-ew]

Hey don't mean anything bad by this but I assume your Muslim from your pfp, but you also give queer vibes. My gaydar broken?

Nope.

I'm a queer Muslim!

[eggdoesthings]

You should never have to choose between your faith and who you are

Stories from Palestinians on "Queering The Map"

[PT: Stories from Palestinians on "Queering The Map"]

First before anything : make no mistake, these people's queerness does not exceptionalize their position. They are not any more or less worthy of safety, life, or dignity than any other palestinian. Neither sexuality nor attitude towards queerness determines a human beings worthiness of basic rights, and queer palestinians should *not* need to beg for the recognition of their humanity nor that of their friends and families.

Despite that, homonationalistic rhetoric is prevalent. So, in an attempt to uncover the pinkwashing for what it is (a desperate attempt to justify genocide) here are some anecdotes directly from the mouths of queer Palestinians (and some others). Maybe this'll reach someone.

translations for the arabic :

بحبك و بخيالي انتي كمان بتحبيني = i love you and in my imagination you love me too

يحبك وبالرغم من الي صار دايما في بالي = i love you and despite what happened youre always on my mind

الاشي الوحيد يلي مصبرني على العيشة بغزة هو البحر و انتي = that only thing thats keeping me patient / keeping living in gaza bearable is the sea and you
