Bilal Saqib is an Islamic Sufi writer who was born in June 1975 in Canada to Pakistani immigrant parents. He became an immigrant himself in 1978 when his family moved to Texas. The subsequent years resulted in moves between Colorado, Utah, and Washington, only to return to Texas and finally settle down in Houston in 1997. His works have been published in prominent magazines such as Time Magazine, Newsweek, Traditions Magazine, and newspapers including the Asia Times and Dawn Daily . His writings predominately focus on philosphy , political science, and theology and include editorial letters, explorative essays, poems, and short stories. One example of his published essays includes "Meditation and the Post Modern Psyche" which was featured in Traditions Magazine, 2005.

Bilal Saqib has stated that he has, "been blessed with a rare find and that is Sufism." During the past three years he has felt that there has been much that has been conveyed to him regarding the "associations with humans whose hearts outmatch the horizon in expanse and whose thoughts far outreach the ocean in depth." These things are then reflected within his writings.
