IN SHORT

Muhammad Nuruddeen Lemu, through his focus on interfaith dialogue via the Islamic Education Trust as well as a number of other pursuits, has found that true happiness comes from serving others. “If you want to be happy, look for something that is a service, but also make sure that it is a contribution that you find pleasure and passion in doing,” he advises. “From there, grow in your capability to do that and look for people who are also doing it, so you can support them – and if you gradually become good at some aspects, you’ll find people ready to support you.”
