Long time no see everyone! Alhamdulillah, it's been a busy (but fun!) time for Sakina Literary Society. Make sure you subscribe to our newsletter and/or follow us on Instagram to keep up to date with our events and endeavours!


And now, onto the heart of this post: we're delighted to bring you another author interview—this time in video format!

Image description

Sum Din is a UK author who primarily writes faith-based non-fiction, both for adults and children. You can find her at her site and on Instagram.


She is also an editor, assisting other writers in inking their best words onto the page, as well as a researcher and educational consultant ensuring Muslims are represented accurately and in good faith. 

Turning the Tide and Dear Mother are just two of her incredible works. So, without further ado, listen in on our interview with the incredible Suma...

Are you a writer or the friend of a writer? Reach out to us on our contact page (or DM us on Instagram) to request a free interview. We want to promote and support authors, no matter if they’re traditionally published, self-published, or not-yet published! The only requirements are: 

  1. the participant's work is fiction, non-fiction, fanfiction, poetry, songs, or anything else that is written (we are not interviewing artists of other media at this time, but stay tuned for changes!)
  2. the participant's work belongs to themselves (in the case of fanfiction, transformative works are allowed) and has not been "written" in whole or in part by generative AI

Until next time everyone,

Happy reading and writing!
