Islam and Science Fiction is a website on all things related to Islam, Muslims and Science Fiction and everything in between.The exploration of Islam and Science Fiction is from a cultural and social perspective, from a cultural and civilizational sense. A more appropriate term would be Marshall Hodgson's Islamicate. Thus this site is a compendium of novels, short stories, novellas, movies etc which either has Islamic themes or have Muslim characters. You can contact the editor at maahmad@uw.edu

One thought on “Punjabi Star Wars!”

  1. I have been writing Science Fiction in Punjabi for over 10 years. To my knowledge it has yet not been produced in Shahmukhi, although someone in Pakistan is trying to get my Punjabi Sci Fi novel, Samurai published for Pakistani readers.

    There is slowly a large developing oeuvre in Punjabi Sci Fi, almost exclusively in Gurmukhi
