Crowds who poured into a North-East mosque in Thornaby, Britain, this weekend brought with them a resounding message of hope and coexistence.

In the wake of terror attacks in Manchester and London, the Thornaby Muslim Association and Mosque was targeted by vandals who scrawled ‘Muslim cowards’ on its walls last week.

The mosque’s response was to organize an open day and to invite the community to speak to representatives from the Muslim community.

Hundreds of people poured into the mosque on Saturday to hear more about the Islamic faith and to put their questions to the Muslims present.

 

Speakers fielded a number of questions from those gathered, with people raising a variety of issues, from Muslim dress to integration and responses to terror.
