MORE Muslim leaders from around Waltham Forest have called for peace in the wake of global terror attacks.

Representatives at the Noor Ul Islam Trust have spoken out to condemn the attacks by ISIS, last week.

Yusuf Hansa, Chairman of Noor Ul Islam said the attacks are horrific and "go against the teachings of Islam".

Mr Hansa said worshippers at the mosque were "deeply upset" on hearing of attacks in Beirut and Baghdad last week.

He said the upset turned into disgust when reports of the terrorist attacks in Paris came on Friday (November 13).

Mr Hansa said: “We condemn this violence in the strongest possible terms.

"My thoughts and prayers for the families of those killed and injured in these recent attacks, especially for those in France. Parisians are our neighbours and Islam teaches us to be especially good to our neighbours.

"The thoughts and well-wishes of those of Noor Ul Islam go out to those affected by these acts of terrorism. These attacks bear no resemblance to the teachings of Islam.

"There is nothing Islamic about such acts and these are clearly outside the boundaries set by our faith.

"The whole community should do everything possible to ensure that justice and peace prevails.”
