The Muslim Student Council is the national umbrella body for AhlulBayt Islamic Societies (ABSocs) in the United Kingdom. It began as a few university societies working together, and today it links ABSocs on campuses across the country.
We support Muslim students in their faith, their studies and their life at university, through societies that students run on their own campuses, and we work for understanding and unity in the wider community.
The MSC works at two levels. Nationally, it runs the network-wide campaigns and the annual conference, and keeps the societies pulling in the same direction. Locally, each ABSoc is independent: it runs its own events, looks after its own members and serves its own campus. Together they give every member a society on their doorstep and a network behind it.
Our three pillars guide everything we do — from individual student growth to national campaigns.
Empowering Muslim students with the knowledge, skills, and spiritual grounding to thrive at university and beyond. Islamic education, leadership training, and personal growth.
Building vibrant campus communities through events, campaigns, and meaningful social connections — ensuring no Muslim student feels isolated or alone.
Fostering understanding between Muslim students and wider society through interfaith dialogue, charity work, and collaborative engagement with universities and the public.
