By New decade, who dis? 2019 was an insane year! Anyone else feel like we had to squeeze and entire decade of life into this one year? No? Just us? Alrighty, then.
This year, we saw not one, but two Muslim women sworn into Congress. The floor has seen a Palestinian thobe, people! We saw our Editor-in-Chief do a verbal takedown of Wallah Bros and their insane dedication to hijab policing (Adam Saleh, you messed with the wrong women), and we took a certain Korean drama to task for their less-than-flattering depiction of Muslim women. Another year tackled by our incredible #MuslimGirlArmy.
This round up covers the stories you cared about the most in 2019. From pearls of wisdom to soothe your soul in the Holy Qur’an, to prime life advice from our boy Hasan Minhaj, Muslim Girl is a reflection of the voices that make it up. Here are the articles you read millions of times this year.
