Sir, Congratulations once again to The Muslim News for highlighting Muslims excelling in their fields. The comprehensive awards shortlist makes us proud to see British Muslim contribution to the country. You have awards for education, health, community relations, the arts and so many others.
It is so important to celebrate Muslim contributions especially at a time when we are demonised by the media.
The newspaper’s reach seems wide as we see the nominees are from across the country. I hope your initiative will go a long way to counter negative image portrayed by the media. I don’t think the media is interested in positive stories, especially if you are a Muslim.
Wish you all the best for the awards.
Yours,
Fatima Shah
London
