He gave talks to Dawah workers in Escourt and also addressed a public gathering at the IPCI headquarters. His talk was based on “how to respond in the face of a hostile Media?” Mr. Fadel Soliman conducts workshops throughout the world and his presentations are done in a professional manner. He is willing to train Muslims on how to do dawah to non-Muslims and is passionate of addressing non-Muslims He is keen on conducting future workshops in South Africa before the 2010 World Cup soccer wherein people will be trained to do effective dawah during this period.  Watch the Press for future details…..
