Good News from the Muslim Community


Welcome to Fresh Air, a Muslim community bulletin that brings you the good news you never seem to hear in the media.

We welcome stories of positive community engagement, humanitarian and voluntary work, responsible reporting and well researched publications, documentaries and other pieces.

We want to inspire you to do more by hearing about others’ example whether they be Muslim or Non-Muslim. We also want to put a smile on your face when you read about people striving to make the world a better place.Finally we are committed to centralising communication within the Muslim community so that you know about the good work of both Muslim and Non-Muslim organisations and can support them spiritually and financially.

Converts in Difficulty

With all its new delights, conversion to Islam can sometimes bring with it its share of daunting challenges.  Finally now, help is on its way.
Solace is a new voluntary organisation specifically set up to support revert sisters in difficulty.  Under the patronage of Sheikh Haitham Al Haddad, Solace aims to provide pastoral and practical support through voluntary donations of time and community money.
Aims include a listening service offered by trained volunteers, counselling and life coaching, household help, parenting workshops, coffee mornings and day trips.
It already features a comprehensive website with links to You Tube videos, useful websites, helpline numbers to call and regularly updated events listings for London.   For converts with doubts or questions about the faith, a helpline number has been made available.
Solace currently needs both publicity and support so please visit www.solaceuk.org to volunteer or donate.
