Lord Sheikh was invited to attend and make the Welcome Address at the Fourth World Muslim Leadership Forum at Lambeth Palace in London. Lord Sheikh is a European Patron of WMLF. The title of the Forum was: “The Role of Muslim Leadership in Rebuilding Islam’s Global Image”.

This conference aimed to join Muslim leaders from different corners of the globe to explore key issues, address the challenges and provide innovative solutions to delinking perceptions of associations being made between terrorism and Islam. Through strong leadership the conference led by example in opening up the discussion around this crucial challenge.

Delegates included parliamentarians, politicians, experts and scholars, UN bodies, the interfaith community, activists, policy leaders, development practitioners and corporate leaders.
