Biography

Kamillah Khan

Sister Kamillah is an American who embraced Islam 30 years ago. She was born and raised in Michigan USA in a Christian household with many of her relatives being Southern Baptist Ministers from a region known as the ‘Bible Belt’ in North Carolina. Her mother dedicated her to the Church from an early age and it came to no surprise that she wanted to spread the word of God. However there was one problem- she didn’t believe in the trinity. After realising she was not a Christian she began her journey in search of pure monotheism with Allah guiding her to Islam.

She spent her years studying Hadith, striving to understand the statements and actions of Prophet Muhammad whom Allah sent to explain the Qur’an. More recently she has spent several years bringing the various texts within the different books of Hadith together, promoting the practice of looking at the collective evidences.

Although she has spent many years writing articles to clarify the Sunnah she has recently attracted attention through her writings in the online magazine for Muslim women entitled www.todaysmuslimah.com. This magazine has spread to over 35 countries worldwide and she is currently the Chief Editor of its Islamic Section.
