<p><em>“We hope this storyline will demonstrate the positive impact of religion in modern society.”</em></p>
<p>Muslim Youth Helpline is a support service set up by young people to respond to the emotional and social issues endured by Muslim youth in the UK.</p>
<p>They have been working with EastEnders to offer advice on the storyline, which they are pleased shows Islam in a positive light.</p>
<p>Zohra Khaku, director of the Muslim Youth Helpline, said: <em>“The Muslim Youth Helpline have been providing feedback on Bobby’s storyline with the BBC EastEnders team.</em></p>
<p><em>“In a time where young British Muslims see their faith overwhelmingly represented in a negative way, it is heartening to see Islam portrayed as a positive influence in Bobby’s life.”</em></p>
<p>Beale has made his way back to Albert Square after being sent to a young offenders’ unit for killing his sister.</p>
