In general this article, although brief, looks in good condition. I have a few recommendations that I nevertheless think would improve it:

Various press sources are cited, but only one has an access date; moreover, none of the websites have been archived. (For an example of what I mean, see the thematically-related FA-rated article Murder of Dwayne Jones).
The formatting of the source dates is inconsistent. They need to be standard.
Do we know anything of Hendricks' ethnic background? Given the ethnic diversity of South Africa, that would be pertinent information.
Given the brevity of the article, I would suggest incorporating the two sources listed under "Further reading" into the  article. That would really help bring it up to GA quality.
Article titles should not be spelled out in fully capitalised form.
As the name of an organization, "the Inner Circle" is not something that should be italicised.
Where direct quotations are being given, the article should specify who is being quoted.
It would be good to have the article contain a little more context on the role of Islam in South Africa, and on approaches to homosexuality within Islam. This is not inherently necessary for GA status, but would improve the article.
Despite these issues, I believe that the article is close to warranting GA status. Midnightblueowl (talk) 21:03, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

@Midnightblueowl: Thank you for your feedback, I appreciate it!
I have added access dates and archives to all of the sources (except the academic source behind a paywall, which can be accessed via the Wikipedia Library but I don't think archiving would help here).
Standardised the date formats too (I believe South Africa uses dd/mm/yyyy format)
I've added some content about Hendricks' ethnic background - not sure how reliable the website is, so if this is unreliable please feel free to remove. But I struggled to find information about his background specifically in the sources.
I have included some very brief information from the sources, but didn't want to overload with undue information. If there is anything specific that you would like me to add from the sources please let me know.
Article titles should be standard now.
Organisation name is no longer capitalised
I have attributed quotes or removed / reworded some content - I believe the content is generic enough and re-worded so as to not be considered close paraphrasing
I have added a bit of information on South African Muslim attitudes to homosexuality, hopefully this is enough.
Let me know if there is anything else I can do to improve the article!  – GnocchiFan (talk) 18:18, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
Looks great, GnocchiFan, thank you for your work on this article. Obviously it's on the short side, but that is probably inevitable at present. Hopefully further sources will emerge in future that will allow this article to be fleshed out. I'm happy that in its current form the article meets the GA criteria so will pass this.

The Activism section begins, “In 1996, Fullerton founded…“ Who’s Fullerton? Should this be Hendricks? 06:35, 3 March 2024 (UTC) KJP1 (talk) 06:35, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

Not sure how that happened - you're absolutely right.  Done GnocchiFan (talk) 11:59, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
