specific aspects of the faith, encouraging engagement througb open dialogue and questions. Topics were carefully

challenges.

As part of our efforts to diversify our offerings, we hosted events centred on Islamic poety, singing, and praise. These
artistic expressions of faith provided a more relaxed and culturally rich environment for engagement, appealing to
