In London, the Archbishop of Canterbury has brought together Muslim and Jewish community leaders in a bid to discourage "any form of hatred or violence" in the UK.
Here's what Sheikh Ibrahim Mogra, a scholar and imam from Leicester, had to say:

He was followed by Jonathan Wittenberg, a senior rabbi of Masorti Judaism who was described by Mogra as a "dear friend". Wittenberg added:
Quote Message: The Jewish community... has long condemned, and continues to condemn, all forms of racism directed against Muslims, from whatever source.
