Brass Crescent Awards 2008: Nominations Open
The BCAs are back. Open nominations provide us all with the means to shape the Muslim blogosphere into a more productive place, insha’Allah.
Visit the website, to place your nominations by October 24th 2008. The voting round opens in November. It’ll be interesting to see who gets called up this year.
Notice that the “Best Ijtihaad” category has been scrapped. For the best it seems, as not many scholars are into blogging, and ijtihaad is not a word to be lightly tossed around.
