THE University of Bolton's Islamic Society has staged a special exhibition to highlight the positive influences Islam has had on the world.
As well as the trying to dispel misconceptions of the religion, society members also held fun cultural activities throughout the week for other students.
Islamic Society president Mohammed Kabir said: "We wanted the exhibition to enlighten people and highlight how Islam has influenced the world today.
"The response to the event was very positive. It was all about breaking down barriers and asking people not to be taken in by the current media images of Islam but to find out about the religion themselves."
