ProgressiveIslam.Org is transforming the "Blogs Project" into
"Muslim Spaces." In line with our niyya, we have offered all our
present bloggers and those we are looking to bring onto the site a
space on our site.
Each Muslim Space is their own subdomain that can include a blog, a
wiki, a forum, a whole independent web-site if they like. Whatever
they can dream of doing and the technology will allow, we'll try to put
it together for them.
Our niyya is to bring together Muslims from different perspectives in
an intellectually and religiously supportive environment to encourage a
positive experience of difference of agreement in our community and
maybe find some common ground, too.
Watch these spaces as they develop. Some of our original
bloggers--those who never found their inner blogger--might bow out and
new people will be coming in. We are still trying to organize a space
Laury wants to call "Very American Islam" that brings together a
plurality of Muslims devoted to distinctly American expressions of
Islam to take on blogs, wikis, whatever they want. We have no idea
what these spaces will bring!
To
encourage freedom of expression on "Muslim Spaces," Ilan and Laury
have given over complete control of the content to their authors.
We do not necessarily agree with anything loaded on these sites, nor
should one assume that the Spacers agree with each other. All
that is expressed on these sites belongs to the author if the
particular site alone.

Food Bank
ProgressiveIslam.Org
would like to suggest that you
consider giving Ramadan charity to Second Harvest, the national
food-bank for the poor, or to your local food-bank.
Second
Harvest has a local food bank finder on their front page if you need help or want to contribute locally.
We are building a Community Portal
Resource Page in the Women's Health Project. Please tell us about services in your community.
