Arsonists Attack, Mosque in Oldham Set Alight after Manchester Attacks
The door at Jamia Qasmia Zahidia Islamic Centre on Villa Road, Oldham, was set alight at around 2am according to its imam, Mohammad Saddiq.
Mr Saddiq, 60, said: ‘Last night at around 2am somebody has started a fire through our letterbox. The door is completely burnt down.
We have no idea why somebody would target us. We are a religious and educational centre. I’ve been involved her for three years and never dealt with anything like this.
It’s sad to see more misery in Manchester. What happened last night was terrible but this is not the way to respond.’
It’s only a mindless few who blame the Muslim people for the acts of evil terrorists! The media is so poisonous and it has a lot to answer for.
Hate breeds hate, we all need to come together during times like this. Thought are with all the people at home and abroad who have suffered due to acts of terror. What can the world do to eradicate terrorism?
