Building Bridges Amid Rising Hate | London News

Facing rising anti-Muslim hate, the UK’s largest Muslim convention, Jalsa Salana, pulled off a massive security operation with hundreds of extra staff and tight police coordination—proof that the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, long under fire, refuses to retreat. Since arriving in Britain over a century ago, they’ve weathered far-right attacks and hate crimes that now surge 19% annually. Instead of hiding, they’ve built bridges through interfaith liaison groups, turning once-contentious meetings into decades of trust and collaboration. Their message? Visibility and personal connection are the most powerful antidotes to division—showing people the humanity behind faith, one handshake at a time.
