The Truth about Islam

Monday saw the first event from the College's Waltham Forest Islamic Society designed to reveal the real truth about Islam.

During a short presentation before answering questions from the audience of about 40, each member of the WFIS spoke of important and influential Muslims from history.

Anwar (pictured on the left) celebrated the life of Malcolm X.

The origins of Islam were discussed, and strong points were made about how the media are to blame for the bad way some Muslims are presented in the UK.

After a few questions from the audience, Hasib (the Chair of the WFIS) thanked everybody for coming and invited those who were interested to stay for refreshments and less formal conversation.

The WFIS hold Friday Prayers in the Multi-Faith Prayer rooms, and welcome any enquiries about their activities.

If you wish to know more about the WFIS they welcome email to hasib13uk@hotmail.com.
