Amer Jamil

He regularly contributes to national newspapers such as the Scotsman, Sunday Herald, and the BBC. He is a frequent contributor to local radio programmes. In 2012, he addressed the Scottish Parliament with a short reminder on the importance of morally righteous behaviour, particularly for those who are in positions of authority. In 2016, he appeared on the Islamic site Seekers Guidance, where he talked about the issue of black magic. In 2017, he appeared on a series of podcasts for the Deenspiration podcast show.

In 2010, he launched a national campaign on raising awareness and tackling domestic abuse in the Muslim community. In the same year, he co-authored the work, Islam and Domestic Violence: A Commentary with Louise Riley. In 2013, he was asked by the Scottish government to share his views on the proposal put forth to criminalise forced marriage. In the same year, the Assistant Chief Constable, Iain Livingstone, invited him to speak at a conference regarding honour-based violence.

In 2007, he authored the booklet What Islam Really Says About Domestic Abuse. The booklet methodically explains topics such as "The concept of harm in Islam", "The example of the Muhammad" as well as clarifying the often misunderstood verse in the Qur'an about hitting, explaining that domestic violence is irrefutably not allowed in Islam. The work was supported by the Strathclyde Police and Scottish government. It was translated into 5 other languages and 8,000 copies were distributed to various women's groups, social work and the police as well as other relevant organisations.

After travelling to France, he travelled to a wide range of Muslim countries seeking sacred knowledge from a wide range of Muslim scholars. He first travelled to Syria, attending the Abu Noor University, founded by Ahmed Kuftaro (1912 - 2004). Whilst in Syria he also attended private classes with scholars from both the Abu Noor University and the al-Fath Islamic Law Institute, where Abd al-Fattah al-Bizm was the leading scholar.
