amir sulaiman
Amir Sulaiman is a Muslim poet, writer, teacher and family man. You may have seen him on HBO's Def Poetry Jam doing a piece called "Danger" (which you should be able to hear on his website). He delivers his words powerfully, inspired by "a political consciousness that is profound without being preachy and stately without being stand-offish". Here is his website. The site is actually a pretty good reflection of his style. It's not as flowery nor as busy as other poet's sites I've seen. It is to the point and well-done.

Mashallah!
I had the pleasure of meeting this brotha and seeing him perform live. If you get the opportunity to see him dont pass it up.
a gift unwrapped, revealed. this brother is a blessing with insight to fill the masses. The almighty reached out to me to give me encouragement and a gentle push one late night @ BB King's in LA. His love and encouragement came in the form of this gifted brother baring truths many choose not to hear. Honored I am . Motivated hereafter. May God bless every action and guide every step. Continue to speak so that the blind may see
