The Muslim Link

The Muslim Link is a newspaper in Ottawa, Canada that seems to rely on volunteer submissions for articles. You can read back issues on the paper's website.

There is another Muslim Link (unaffiliated with the one in Canada) in the US State of Maryland. I believe this one is a paying market, but you should confirm with the editor first before submitting your work.
