” “A young Muslim among the volunteers of the WYD. "I am a Muslim by belief and I also work for the WYD with a firm belief", stated Haider Aboud, 18 years old, a German student of Iraqi origin. In these days, he works as a volunteer at the press centre in Köln-Messe, where he helps journalists having problems with computers and printers. "Through the WYD explained Haider I want to prove that being a Muslim does not mean being a terrorist, even if I know my work is just a drop in the ocean. My parents and my friends he added supported me in this choice, even if they are not coming". "For me, it is not a problem to take part in a Catholic event he underlined -. It does not matter whether you are a Christian, a Muslim or a Jew: we all believe in God, even if of course there are differences between these religions". And while at home he prays several times a day to the Mecca, over the next few days he and his group will take part in a meeting with the Pope.
