31. Hilaly is a very controversial personality. Entering Australia in 1982 on a
three-month tourist visa, he was granted permanent residency in 1990, due to
political factors. The electorate of the Labor MP, Paul Keating, later prime min-
ister from 1992 to 1995, included a large Muslim population and the Lakemba
mosque led by Hilaly.
32. The largest Muslim school in Australia is the Malek Fahd Islamic School,
established by the Australian Federation of Islamic Council (AFIC) in October
1989 with 87 children ages 3 to 8. In 2008 there were over 1,800 children ages 3
to 17. See http://www.mfis.com.au/. Named after King Fahd of Saudi Arabia,
one website claimed it received a grant of $12 million from the Saudi royal fam-
ily in 1989:http://sydneynearlydailyphot.blogspot.com/2007/06/malek-fahd-
