Who we are

‘Ilm — knowledge

ILM at Yale is a creative literary magazine run by undergraduate students at Yale University. Grounded in the Arabic concept of ‘ilm—knowledge—our publication seeks to foster an inclusive platform for Muslim voices on campus while creating space for students passionate about Islamic literature and creative writing more broadly.
