LGBTQIA+ Muslims are warmly invited to join Inclusive Mosque’s prayer and celebration event on Sunday 24th July 2022. We want to ask: what does Queer and/or Trans Muslim joy mean to you?

In this online space, we will take some time together to find links or resources, create art, write poetry, or reflect on the prompt, and then we’ll come together to share our responses with each other. This is totally optional and you won’t be asked to share. If you’re a Queer and/or Trans Muslim, you’re welcome to simply come and be in the space with us.

Please only register if you’re a Queer and/or Trans Muslim.
