Who speaks for Islam?

Currently in Australia there are many Muslim spokespeople, the Muslim community is not homogenous and there are many differing groups, with differing opinions on many issues, there are also different sects and schools of thought as well as Muslim organizations with a specific ethnic affiliation, so you will get a lot of different answers from many different people.

We have attempted to place the recommended speakers from different organisations in order of category and expertise although it does not mean that person cannot speak on other matters. Please get in touch with us and we will connect you with the right spokesperson.
