Watch GB Rower, Mohamed Sbihi talk about his motivations in the run up to the Olympics
British Muslim Athlete, Mohamed Sbihi, GB Rower, talks about his motivations and his faith in the run up to the upcoming London 2012 Olympics Games. This video was produced by the Muslim Council of Britain and presented first at the Muslim Leadership Dinner 2012.
Moe Sbihi is a 23 year old British born Muslim. He is the first practising Muslim rower ever to compete for GB rowing. He won Silver medals at both the 2010 and 2011 Rowing World Championships. Before, Rowing had never crossed his mind…
“Islam taught me that you have to stay determined and you have to believe in what you do… I started believing in what I did in Rowing, and that eventually started to pay off” - Moe Sbihi
