Today is the last of the three-day memorial prayer event held at to mark the 31st anniversary of the - remembering 8,372 Bosnian Muslim men and boys who were murdered simply because of who they were. Between 1992-1995, over hundred thousands Muslims were murdered.

Remembering Srebrenica is not only about honouring those who lost their lives. It is about learning the lessons of history. Genocides do not happen in a vacuum. They are preceded by prejudice, dehumanisation, hatred, discrimination and the normalisation of intolerance. When these warning signs go unchallenged, they can lead to unimaginable atrocities.

Our shared responsibility is to stand against hatred in all its forms, challenge divisive narratives, protect the dignity of every human being, and build communities based on justice, compassion and mutual respect.

As we remember the victims of Srebrenica, we must also remain vigilant today. The alarming rise in / in the UK is causing genuine anxiety and fear for many Muslims. Every form of hatred must be confronted before it takes deeper root.

Following today’s remembrance event, there will also be an OPEN COMMUNITY meeting at 3pm Woodsley Community Centre, Woodsley Road, to discuss the increasing anti-Muslim hostility in the UK, its impact on our communities, and the practical steps we can take together to respond.

Open to all!

Towards Ihsan: Our Journey to Allah – Leeds Event at Makkah Masjid

The Shadhili Foundation will be bringing its UK tour, “Towards Ihsan: Our Journey to Allah,” to Leeds for a special evening of remembrance, reflection and spiritual growth.

The event will take place at Makkah Masjid, 36 Thornville Road, Leeds, LS6 1JY, on Tuesday 14 July 2026, with the programme starting at 7:00pm.

This gathering is part of a wider national journey, marking Event 18 of 25 in the tour. It will be held in the company of His Eminence Shaykh Muhammad Al-Yaqoubi, offering attendees an opportunity to reconnect with the deeper purpose of worship, remembrance and closeness to Allah.

The theme of the event focuses on the path towards Ihsan, a state of excellence in faith where a person worships Allah with presence, sincerity and awareness. In a world full of distraction, pressure and restlessness, the event invites the community to reflect on a powerful question:

What if the solution to your struggles is not more distraction, but more dhikr?

Dhikr, the remembrance of Allah, has always been a source of peace, healing and stability for the heart. Long before modern society began to recognise the effects of anxiety, restlessness and spiritual emptiness, Islam prescribed remembrance as a cure for the soul. This event will explore how reconnecting with Allah through dhikr can help individuals find clarity, calm and purpose in their daily lives.

The evening is presented by The Shadhili Foundation and supported by a number of sponsors and community partners, including Makkah Masjid Leeds Muslim Council, Network IT, IAC, Peace Matters, Al Fateh Academy, and Taqva Advisory.

Community members, families, students and anyone seeking spiritual renewal are encouraged to attend. The event promises to be an uplifting evening centred on faith, reflection and the journey towards a more meaningful relationship with Allah.

Registration is now open via:
