Australian Muslim Youth Network (AMYN)
Australian Muslim Youth Network (AMYN) was established as a platform for Muslim youth in Australia to meet each other, share experiences, build friendships and strengthen the network of the whole Muslim Ummah.
AMYN organises events around Australia for the youth to develop in their Islamic, academic, sporting and social lives based on four principles:
- Educate! – seek knowledge, keep your mind in shape
- Energize! – boost in Iman, keep your heart in shape
- Exercise! – get fit, keep your body in shape
- Socialize! – build relationships, keep the Muslim Ummah in shape!
Since establishment, AMYN has organised numerous activities to benefit the youth:-
AMYN Youth Centre and Library
Located at 157 North Road, Woodridge, Queensland, Australia, is a two-storey shop premise that houses the Islamic Centre. This option was sought to provide a much-needed place where Muslim youth can socialise and have fun among themselves while being in an Islamic environment.
Emphasising on the development of Islamic knowledge, AMYN Centre organises several Islamic classes. The Centre nurtures the young minds through daily Qur’an recitation and memorisation class taught by qualified teachers. The AMYN Centre also initiated a Madrasah for children, boys and girls, aged 4 to 18 and above. In this weekly Madrasah these young minds learn various aspects of the Qur’an, Hadeeth, Fiqh, Islamic beliefs, Islamic history and manners.
What makes the AMYN Centre unique is its pioneer Islamic library. This one-of-a-kind Library was established through donations from the Muslims in Brisbane. It houses many Islamic books, from the books of Hadith to the books of contemporary scholars, most of them are available in this Library. We hope this library will nurture the habit of reading among the youths

Inspiring Role Models

Amir Muhaddith a.k.a. ‘Loon’- Brisbane Tour
Loon was a rap icon in the United States and reverted to Islam in 2010. It was huge surprise since he had all the worldly pleasure at his fingertips. But he chose Islam over his popularity. He travelled to western countries in order to meet Muslims and instil the confidence of Islam in them.With the Muslim youth in Australia struggling to find their identity by imitating Hollywood stars, the Loon tour to Australia was highly anticipated by the Brisbane community. The program went well with approximately 600 people attended.

Omar Regan Brisbane Tour
Omar Regan is a Hollywood actor who made name through his appearance in the movie ‘Rush Hour 2’. His story was an inspiring one as he went through his youth in the mayhem of Detroit city. His story of being able to practice Islam despite the environment he lived in captured the audience. Omar Regan also grabbed the intention of the youth by sharing jokes while putting Islamic hints to them. He delivered two talks in Brisbane, which were attended by more than 300 people.

Outdoor and Camping
AMYN organises regular camps and outings for young Muslims. These camps are designed to build brotherhood between Muslim youth and also to provide halal recreational alternative to the youth. The first outing featured bush-walking, swimming and many exciting activities, including a crocodile and snake show! The next year, AMYN organised a youth camp to Mount Warning, at the border of Queensland and New South Wales. Insha-Allah this December 2011, AMYN is hosting the Bornhoffen youth camp.

Sisters' Activities
Sisterhood is one of the essences that AMYN is involved in attracting the young Muslimah to appreciate the beauty of Islam. To build this sisterhood, AMYN sisters coordinate many social and educational events for the sisters. Among sisters annual events are Fun Days, night sleepovers at AMYN Centre, picnics and dinners. Alhamdulillah many sisters participate in these events and AMYN is always committed in the self-development of the sisters.
