Masha'Allah we had a lovely first event bringing awareness about the work we do. Thank you to everyone who came and donated.

Chair of trustees and translator of the Qur'an Professor Abdel-Haleem gave an insight into his life and motivation to become a translator : most of his students at the beginning of his career in the 70s as a lecturer at SOAS weren't Muslim and this motivated him to translate pages and work with his students to improve the English text to make it clearer.

Lamaan Ball, director, then described the work done thus far and the future projects to bring the Qur'an to the public space.

The event has been filmed and will be uploaded on YouTube at some point insha'Allah.

What a pleasure to listen to internationally renowned Nasheed artist Hamza Robertson talk about how the Qur'an touched his heart and how he benefited from it.

Hamza Robertson was born in Lancashire in the North-West of England. A singer song writer and musician producing songs with a positive message. He feels that too many people know too little about Islam and the beauty of its essential values, values which bring about harmony between people, as opposed to discord.

Hamza believes that music, being a powerful source of energy, can be employed to influence people toward either good or bad. He feels there is too much 'negative music' in the world giving people the wrong message, and bringing about within them the desire to do things which are against their inherently pure nature, i.e their 'fitrah'.

He has released two albums "Something about life" and "what you've become" and is currently working on new album called new beginnings.
