Muhammad Sajjad bin Kamaruz Zaman (born 23 February 1985), better known as Nur Sajat (also formerly known as Sajat Fariz), is a Malaysian-born Australian transgender entrepreneur, reality television host, and LGBT activist. Nur Sajat is an icon for transgender and LGBT rights in Malaysia in general.[1] [2] [3]
Nur Sajat was born male. Sajat took part in a transgender beauty contest in Thailand in 2013. In 2017, she announced she was identifying fully as a female. Sajat founded her own cosmetics company, having developed her own skincare and health supplements, and a corset carrying her brand name.[1] [2]
In January 2021, she was arrested and charged with “insulting Islam” for wearing traditional women's clothing in her own premises during a 2018 religious event. She fled to Thailand in February 2021, but the Malaysian government convinced Thai authorities to detain her. She was released on bail and is now living in Australia, where she was granted asylum and continues operating her business.[1] [4] [2] [3]
