		We have been conducting Our training
		and teaching sessions which have
		moved from online to face to face as
		well now that covid restrictions are no
		longer required. They continue to be
		available for the wider community to
		join in, These sessions are broadcast
		live on YouTube and stay on our
		YouTube channel for anyone to benefit
		from it.
		We have between 50to 100members
		of public attending these sessions live,
		which take place three times a week.	In
		addition, our YouTube channel
		subscription has surpassed hundreds,
		thus benefitting a wide range of public
		viewers. These sessions are focused
		on explaining the message of Islam in
		clear and simple terms to dispel any
		misconceptions about Islam and at the
		same time to develop positive
		community relations with a view to
		building stronger and safer
		communities across the country.

Social media interactions have provided	Social media interactions have provided
an easily accessible platform for the
Muslim community members as well as
the wider community to engage in a
mutually respectable manner. Many
questions have been answered and
myths busted about the misconceptions
about Islam,
These objectives in mind we have been
able to produce about 50 small booklets
and the complete translation ofthe
Quran in English language, tailored to
the audience in UK.
A complete biography ofthe last
messenger Muhumrned Pbuh has been
compiled as well in order to present the
life story ofthe Messenger for wider
community with a view to spreading
awareness about the true nature of his
person thus dispelling any
misconceptions and helping build
stronger community relations based on
evidence and mutual respect.
We have managed to develop good
relations with various community
organisations in order to form
partnerships for the furtherance ofour
objectives. Our partners include the
central mosque of Birmingham, radio
salaam Birmingham, Airdrie Mosque	in
Scotland, FACIC a community
organisation in Scotland that works with
the local council to dispel
misconception about Islam by
organising community open days and
providing food bank and counselling
services to youth.
We have also managed to form a very
strong partnership with another charity
named North Lanarkshire Muslim
Women's and family Alliance
(NLMWFA).
We provide all literature, pop up
exhibition stands, posters and other
printing material to FACIC and
NLMWFA to facilitate the conduct of
their activities. We are open to helping
all such organisations up and down the
country,

We have been providing literature and
copies of Quran to various prisons in
UK on request ofthe prison services.
This has opened another avenue of
public benefit by helping the prisoner
inmates on their road to rehabilitation
and identifying their spiritual needs with
a view to strengthening their self-image
and making them positive and
constructive citizens on their release,
