Dear British Muslims,

Tomorrow is Eid.

Research shows Ramadan spending boosts the economy by £1.3bn, on top of an annual contribution of £70bn.

I'm sure you want to celebrate - but spend too much, grow the economy a little too fast, and it might be seen as "dominating"
😳😬

[Sayeeda Warsi @SayeedaWarsi]

Too many are too polite to say this …but give your head a wobble Nick!
London rightly hosts Diwali, Vaisakhi, Chanukah and in a few weeks Easter celebrations
But this nonsense of singling out Muslims at an Iftaar open to all Londoners as exceptional is just bigotry.
Faith leaders must call out this nonsense from politicians who seem committed to causing hate and division.

Calling all eco-conscious Muslims!

As part of an upcoming documentary, we're delving into the concept of a sustainable and eco-friendly Hajj. I’m keen to connect with individuals who've embraced greener practices during their #Mecca journey, be it through #Hajj or #Umrah.

[Saba Zaman @Saba_Zaman]

Have you made the pilgrimage in a way that's kind to our planet? Perhaps you opted for walking, travelling by train or boat, or any other environmentally friendly method. Are you planning for Hajj this year with sustainability in mind, in the aim to reduce your carbon footprint?

@Muaaz_Khan, you've gone awol.

[Archbishop of Canterbury @ArchbishopSarah]

This is an appalling and devastating loss of innocent lives.

The Ahli hospital is run by the Anglican church. I mourn with our brothers and sisters - please pray for them.

I renew my appeal for civilians to be protected in this devastating war.

May the Lord God have mercy.

We all have a role to play in stopping the spread of harmful misinformation online, which can result in people being left uninformed, unprotected & vulnerable during a crisis.

Before you share content online, pause to verify facts by asking basic questions.
