Remembering Our Sister

Today we grieve the loss of our sister Tayyibah Taylor. She is one of our own, a pioneer in the Muslim American community, and a dear friend.

Tayyibah was founder, editor-in-chief and publisher of Azizah Magazine, the first mainstream publication for Muslim women in the United States. As a visionary, she recognized the urgent need to raise the voices and profiles of Muslim women in the media. Tayyibah fought for and achieved a change in the narrative about Muslims around the world, especially women. She has left an incredible legacy that we pray will continue to reward her in the next life.

Beyond her professional accolades, of which there are many, we remember her today for who she was. Tayyibah Taylor was a woman of deep faith, a warrior for women’s rights, an adventurous spirit, and constant friend and supporter of KARAMAH.

We pray for her and for her family and friends. Her life’s work remains and its impact will continue to reverberate throughout the world. We at KARAMAH are privileged to have known her. She will be sorely missed. Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajioun.
