He adds, "I love discussing innovative and futuristic ideas to solve everyday problems.”

Mr. Muhammad has also been awarded Young Leader's Associate Fellowship Award by Queen Elizabeth of the Royal Commonwealth Society for playing an influential role in society.

How do you motivae the youths living in developing world for the better future?

I believe it is vital that youth living in developing countries get a chance to explore and discover their interests and passions. Being a "space" enthusiast myself, I have held outreach initiatives at Schools, given talks to convey my excitement and provided other students a platform through which they could get more involved if they are interested in Space Sciences.

In addition, I believe that public speaking is one particular activity I encourage. Forms of public speaking teach the youth how to become independent thinkers, stand firm on their opinion and play a leadership role in society.
