About Me
Hasrizal is an educator, author, and advocate for inclusive education whose career integrates leadership, scholarship, and community engagement. He holds a Bachelor of Sharia (Honours) from Mu’tah University, Jordan, and began his professional journey as the first Minister of Religion at the Belfast Islamic Centre, where he combined religious leadership with grassroots educational work.
His commitment to education later brought him to Finland, where he undertook postgraduate studies at the University of Oulu and Oulu University of Applied Sciences from 2016 to 2020, specialising in learning sciences, educational technology, and education entrepreneurship. This academic development strengthened his long-standing involvement with the Khalifah Education Foundation in Malaysia, particularly in advancing value-based educational models. As a member of Malaysia’s National Education Policy Review Committee (2018–2019), he contributed to national initiatives aimed at systemic reform.
Hasrizal is the author of twenty-eight bestselling books. He was diagnosed with ADHD in 2022, an experience that has shaped the direction of his research, writing, and advocacy. He recently completed his Master of Education (Diversity and Inclusion) at Trinity College Dublin's School of Education. His research examines the academic experiences of university students with ADHD and their interaction with generative artificial intelligence within contemporary academic environments. He also serves as the Professional Advisor (Inclusive Education) for the Malaysian Adult ADHD Society (MAAS).
In Ireland, he is one of the LaunchPAD Ambassadors, promoting equitable participation of students with disability in postgraduate studies and research across Irish universities. Based in Naas, Co. Kildare, his advocacy spans inclusive education, character education, and Islamic education, with emphasis on conceptual foundations, design, and practical application. His work is rooted locally yet remains connected to regional and global conversations on equity, accessibility, and the future of education.
