Amid rising concerns over anti-Muslim sentiment in the United Kingdom, over 100 mosques are hosting their eleventh annual "Visit My Mosque" event to foster dialogue and dismantle stereotypes. Organized by the Muslim Council of Britain, the initiative encourages neighbors and the general public to step inside for direct interaction, moving beyond misconceptions often fueled by media narratives. Sofia Alam, program manager at East London Mosque, emphasized that the effort seeks to build genuine community bonds and clarify beliefs. Shalima Din Malik, a community engagement official, noted that visitors are frequently surprised by the mosque’s charitable work and the welcoming atmosphere. Alexis Stones, a religious education expert at University College London, argued that understanding a religion requires presence and personal engagement with its practitioners, rather than relying on abstract perceptions.
