Frequently Asked Questions

There is a narration from the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) who said, “If you see a harm, then change it with your hand. If you cannot, then with your tongue. If you cannot, then with your heart and this is the least of faith (Muslim).” Human beings are witnessing a live genocide in Gaza and Palestine. We have the capacity to act, in our various roles, to change this situation. This does not mean we control outcomes, but we can try to change the harm with the means at our disposal

No. The Muslim Vote is not a political party, and it does not intend to become either of these in the future. The Muslim Vote is a united collective mobilising the grassroots to participate in the electoral process. It considers: i) the community sentiment in terms of its approach, ii) the data and iii) the national picture. Underpinning this are the guidance principles of our faith. are the

Yes, voting is halal. It is a practical method to achieve benefits (maslahah) and prevent harm (mafsadah). Islamic principles encourage actions that establish justice, protect human dignity, and promote social good.

No, we do not endorse any particular political party. Our goal is to educate, empower, and mobilise the Muslim community to vote strategically, supporting independent candidates or parties that best represent Islamic ethical values and our community’s concerns.

It’s understandable to worry about the Liberal Party; however, our strategic objective isn’t merely to oppose a particular party, but rather to hold all political parties accountable for their policies, especially concerning critical issues like Palestine and the fair treatment of our community. If we continue to offer unconditional support to the Labor Party despite their longstanding neglect and silence on key issues, we lose any leverage to influence genuine policy changes.


By empowering independent candidates and strategically utilising our collective voting power, we send a clear message to all parties—including Labor—that our votes cannot be taken for granted. This strategy compels political parties to address our community’s concerns seriously, thus creating real political accountability. The ultimate risk isn’t empowering another party temporarily; it’s remaining complacent while injustice continues unaddressed.
