We are deeply shocked and saddened by the news of the attack on Finsbury Park Mosque during the early hours of Monday morning whilst worshippers were leaving the mosque after having prayed taraweeh prayers.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their loved ones.

This is clearly a terrorist attack and it’s positive that the authorities are viewing it as that.

This attack clearly shows how we all need to stick together against this kind of behaviour whether Muslims are the perpetrators or the victims.

The Letterkenny Islamic Association are very grateful for the heart warming messages of support received.
