How do we turn community funds into real change? ✨
The Muslim Community Fund was established by ANIC, with more than 370 Imams, and AAM, which unites more than 260 organisations from every state and territory, to back the long-term work our community needs here in Australia.
✅ Mentorship programs for future leaders, including Imams
✅ Media engagement, so our community has a clear voice
✅ Political engagement, so decision-makers hear from us
✅ Community outreach, from chaplaincy to Eid and Iftar
✅ Legal support when our rights are on the line ⚖️
But the long-term work that protects our community here often has no one to fund it. 🇦🇺
ANIC and AAM set up the Muslim Community Fund to change that. 🤝

The Summit brought together leaders from every state and territory to strengthen Muslim unity, coordinate national priorities and respond collectively to the challenges facing Australian Muslims.

The Summit affirmed that Australia is our country and home. Australian Muslims are an integral part of this nation and are committed to its peace, social harmony, security, prosperity and future. They demonstrate this commitment through responsible citizenship, compliance with Australian law, participation in public life, service to the wider community and contributions to the national interest.
✅ Key Outcomes
The Summit adopted motions to strengthen Muslim unity and collective representation, preserve Islamic identity, protect religious freedom and civil liberties, combat Islamophobia and anti-Palestinian racism, strengthen political and media engagement, support Palestine, improve governance and institutional capacity, and empower young people, women and new Muslims.
The Summit welcomed the Australian Government’s adoption of a number of the recommendations made by the Special Envoy to Combat Islamophobia as an important step forward, and called for the adoption and implementation of all remaining recommendations, supported by appropriate funding, measurable outcomes and clear accountability. It also called for stronger protection of Muslim institutions and victims of Islamophobia, and improved media representation.
✅ Palestine and Global Justice
The Summit reaffirmed its unwavering support for the Palestinian people’s freedom, dignity, justice, self-determination and right of return.
It condemned Israel’s genocide in Gaza, war crimes, unlawful occupation, siege, forced displacement, starvation and destruction of civilian infrastructure, and called for stronger Australian diplomatic, economic, humanitarian and legal action, including appropriate sanctions and accountability.
The Summit also expressed solidarity with people affected by conflict, famine and persecution in Sudan, and with Rohingya, Uyghur and other oppressed communities.

🌙 EID Al-Fitr Statement for the Year 1447AH I 2026
All praise is due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Prophet Muhammad.
We thank Allah (SWT) for giving us the ability to fast in the Month of Ramadan, the ability to worship him, and the ability to fulfil our religious and worldly obligations.
The Australian Fatwa Council is pleased to announce to the Australian Muslim community the following:
The Australian Fatwa Council has confirmed, after further inquiries with both local and global observatories, that:
The Month of Ramadan will conclude on Thursday, 19th March 2026, which will be the last day of Ramadan for 1447AH I 2026
✅ The Day of Eid Al-Fitr will be on Friday, 20th of March 2026, and the first day of the Month of Shawwal 1447AH I 2026
The method by which the Grand Mufti of Australia and the Australian Fatwa Council determined the end of the month of Ramadan, the first day of Shawwal, and the day of Eid Al-Fitr is based on the calculated birth of the moon before sunset, the duration of the moonset after sunset, and the possibility of sighting the moon in Australia and its surrounding region. This is a method that has been adopted by many prominent and reputable global scholarly councils.
The Australian National Imams Council and the Australian Fatwa Council acknowledge, understand and respect the Imams and scholars who may hold a different opinion, and request all Muslims to respect the different opinions on this matter and work towards the unity of the Muslim community in preserving the common values and interests that they all have and share.
The Grand Mufti of Australia, Dr Ibrahim Abu Mohamad, and the member Imams of the Australian National Imams Council, wish the Muslim community a happy, joyful and blessed Eid Al-Fitr, and to remember their brothers and sisters in Gaza – Palestine in their Dua’a, generous donations, and ongoing support.
We also encourage the Muslim community to engage with their fellow Australian neighbours and friends in displaying the true and peaceful image of Islam.
May Allah accept your fasting and worship in the Month of Ramadan & EID MUBARAK!!
Dr Ibrahim Abu Mohamad
The Grand Mufti of Australia
Chairman of the Australian Fatwa Council
