Political career

During the election campaign for the 2023 New South Wales state election, Ayyad was subject to a racist and islamophobic campaign targetting her Muslim faith with fake pamphlets made to look like official campaign material were distributed across the electorate of Holsworthy including the suburb of Barden Ridge.[2] She said "I condemn the racism and hatred that the pamphlets represent and it's something that doesn't belong in our community."[6]

Ayyad defeated incumbent Melanie Gibbons for preselection as the Liberal candidate for Holsworthy. She was elected at the 2023 New South Wales state election, suffering a 5.3% swing against her.[7]
