Muslim Community Radio (call sign 2MFM) is acommunity radio station based inBankstown,New South Wales,Australia, and broadcasts to Sydney on a citywide licence. It is avolunteer-run organisation and is funded mostly through listener support.[1][2]

History

[edit]

The station is linked withDarulfatwa - Islamic High Council of Australia.[3] The station first broadcast under a temporary licence duringRamadan andDhu al-Hijjah beginning in 1995 and then added a weekly Friday broadcast in 1997. A full community broadcasting licence was granted on 24 May 2001. In 2011, theAustralian National Imams Council requested that the radio station not have its licence renewed due to ties withAl-Ahbash and because of its promotion of "sectarian fringe views".[4] However, theAustralian Communications and Media Authority granted a five-year license in 2011, which drew criticism from Islamic groups.[5]

Programming

Muslim Community Radio broadcasts primarily in Arabic and English. It also offers a multicultural and multilingual service, broadcasting in Indonesian, Turkish, Urdu and in the Iraqi dialect. The station covers Islamic religious teaching andfestivals along with educational and cultural programming.[6]
