An Introductory Resource Manual: Islam and Living in Australia was developed with the support of the Australian Multicultural Foundation (AMF).
“It is not only important to break down barriers and misconceptions, but also for young Australian Muslims to gain better understanding on the teachings of Islam from a scholarly source, rather than an unknown and unreliable internet source," AMF Executive Director Hass Dellal said.
Mr Hasani said the resource aims to provide a tailored interpretation of what it means to be Muslim in modern-day Australia.
"There are certain principals of Islam that actually change with time and place," he said.
"The best way to interpret Islam in Australia is from the Imams that live here with our community and respect the tradition and the law of the land.
