Muslims for Progressive Values (MPV) is an inclusive community rooted in the traditional Qur’anic ideals of human dignity and social justice. We welcome all who are interested in discussing, promoting and working for the implementation of progressive values — human rights, freedom of expression, and separation of church and state — as well as inclusive and tolerant understandings of Islam.
Welcome
The goal of Literary Zikr is to revitalize discourse on Islamic theology (and the lived realities of contemporary Muslims) by introducing thought-provoking and rigorously researched scholarship to a young audience. Literary Zikr is a website that will provide the academic works of world-renowned scholars of Islam in simple and youth-friendly language.

By bringing together scholars of progressive Islamic thought and Muslim youth in search of answers, we hope to bridge the gap that often exists between theory and practice while also expanding the reach of the important and invigorating scholarship of academicians.
