04 @Glam.Halal april-may. 2019 personality Understanding the role of a Muslim speaker Ustaz Don gives his views on being an icon for Islamic teachings in Malaysia writes Maria Azman That is what we call as Uruf. The environment or the custom of a society. The maturity is what would shape us. N ever have I met a person with such calm and poise, ready to share his knowledge and views, yet with a shy smile never leaving his face. I couldn’t believe I was given the privilege to meet with one of the most prolific contemporary Muslim speaker of our time, and to acquire first-hand information from the man himself. However, his warmness and familiarity made the encounter less serious and more relaxed.
