Lama Al Sword is a Saudi Arabian former Shia Muslim who sought asylum in the UK after leaving her faith. Born into a minority Shia community in a small Saudi town, she defied societal and religious constraints to forge her own path. A doctor by profession and a stand-up comedian by passion, Lama uses humor to shed light on her experiences as a queer ex-Muslim. She challenges taboos, amplifies marginalized voices, and fosters conversations on identity, faith, and freedom.
