Assisted Dying Bill Defeated- Following the vote on the Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults (Scotland) Bill, the Scottish Association of Mosques has said the outcome should be a moment not for celebration, but for reflection and renewed
focus on end-of-life care.

Imams across the country ask MSPs to "think and think again" before voting on the Assisted Dying Bill. Full statement:

Holyrood 'assisted dying' legislation is still “riddled with problems” after completing the second stage of parliamentary scrutiny, an academic has said.

We were grateful for the visit of Cab Sec and look forward to working with @ScotGovEdu colleagues on action points

[ScotGov Education @ScotGovEdu]

Racism and discrimination have no place in society.

The letters were presented by @zubirahmed during the visit of Secretary of State for Scotland, @D_G_Alexander to Glasgow Central Mosque. Mr Alexander spoke of the vast contributions of Scottish muslims & reaffirmed the UK Government’s commitment to fostering cohesive communities.

Our thanks to @10DowningStreet and @wesstreeting for their letters of support for Glasgow Central Mosque after recent racist graffiti. Unity & solidarity remain our strongest response to hate.

GCM - Statement

We were deeply upset to find graffiti on the wall of the Mosque today

Acts like this do not represent the values of Glasgow or Scotland. Our city is renowned for its warmth, diversity, and sense of community, and it is that spirit which will always prevail

“Islamophobia seems to be relegated to a public relations issue, not treated as the structural emergency it so clearly is.”

🔴NEW: At least 20 racist incidents took place in Scotland last month including attacks on mosques and asylum hotels, alleged assaults – and the jailing of a neo-Nazi for slashing a student in the face with a knife.

We condemn the disproportionate action taken on the Gaza Strip as well as the violation of Al Aqsa Mosque during the holy month of Ramadan, whilst worshippers pray. We call an end to this provocation and the respect for the human rights of the Palestinian people.
