Voice of Unity (VOU) is a magazine covering a wide spectrum of issues relevant to Muslim youth in the UK, based on the traditions of the Ahlul Bayt (as).  It is a creative outlet for Muslim youth to discuss and debate and a platform for increasing our knowledge.

Its run by an editorial team of students and young graduates and is published by the registered charity Islamic Unity Society (IUS).

Voice of Unity has been printed and distributed since its start in 1995. The dedicated website www.voiceofunity.com has been live since April 2010 and is currently in beta mode.

Vision

We hope to foster a community of writers and readers through the VOU magazine and website.

Comment posting, sharing articles with friends, writing articles and poems yourself are all elements of a buzzing intellectual community.

We hope that we can be a small part of such a movement towards encouraging literary excellence in our respective communities around the UK.

History
