The Women’s Auxiliary of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community of Australia will hold their 35th Annual National Convention in one of Australia’s most prominent mosques in western Sydney.

The event will bring together over 1,000 Muslim women and girls from across the nation to participate in activities, including academic and sports competitions, whilst learning how to spread the message of peace, love, respect and loyalty to Australia.

The National President of the Women’s Auxiliary of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Australia, Abida Mubashar, said:

“The purpose of this convention is to promote the peaceful teachings of Islam and understand the roles and responsibilities of Australian Muslim women in our society. Islam teaches us that the responsibility of building peaceful societies and nations depends on the contribution of women, in their roles as daughters, wives and mothers. If each one of us as women realise our potential and fulfil our roles within society to the best of our abilities, then no doubt we can nurture peaceful societies.”
