“I have a JI-HARD-ON for you.”
If you love Valentine's Day and puns but need a gift that represents your dislike of Islamophobia, then please check out #MuslimVDay cards immediately.

The cheeky cards are produced by Los Angeles based writer and artist Tanzila "Taz" Ahmed. Most of the cards take an Islamophobic stereotype and flip it into a hilarious and uncomfortable pun.
She also co-hosts the #GoodMuslimBadMuslim podcast.

Taz told BuzzFeed that she was tired of all the incorrect and simplistic perceptions of Muslim women and came up with the cards as an ironic response.
She also said, "Giving out Valentine's day cards was a part of Americana growing up that I wanted to be a part of. I wanted to make cards for those of us who didn’t get that many growing because maybe it wasn’t their culture or they were different."

Taz has been making Valentine's Day cards since she was a child. It was only after she gave out the first set of #MuslimVDay cards to her friends did she decide to sell them.
