of New South Wales to give a talk to the Muslim students on Wednesday 7 March.
Approximately 35 students attended the talk which focused on the topic
of "the five most significant challenges of being a young Muslim in a
Western society".
The challenges mentioned included identity, society, spirituality,
Da'wah, and leadership. Each challenge was discussed from a Muslim
perspective as well as some possible practical solutions, such as developing a unique "Australian Muslim Identity".
