Bilal Zafar

Bilal Zafar made astute observations about his own experience dating as a young Muslim man. At times Zafar was self-deprecating and at times highly astute. I liked his ideas. That he focused on ways we should be looking at our similarities and spreading kindness, rather than divisiveness and hatred. He and a friend used Twitter and humour to do this and became the opposite of internet trolls. Bilal is likeable with meaningful material, but needs more of an edge. His personal story of online dating and Muslim matchmaking services was rich in content, but sadly lacking in comedy.
