DON’T VOTE, DON’T COUNT

On Thursday May 6th Local and General Elections are being held. This is our opportunity to shape the domestic and foreign policies of our country. We can only have our say if we exercise our right to vote.

This General Election is likely to be very close, and what happens in the few dozen seats where most Muslims live could decide which party wins.
The Holy book of Muslims, the Noble Qur’an says: “Indeed Allah will not change the condition of a people until they change it themselves” [Quran, 13:11]

The Imam of the mosque, Qari Asim, said: “Politics impacts upon every aspect of our lives and it is therefore important that we all vote and be counted. We should we vote for the party and person who we think is most inclined to promote goodness in our society and who will work to better our interests”.
