Nice Massacre: Irish Muslims condemn attack and call for reflection

The head imam of the Islamic Centre of Ireland said he is shocked and appalled by the attack in Nice, but that as a society we must reflect deeply on its causes.

Shaykh Umar al-Qadri added we need to respond wisely to the event and think about how to treat those on the margins of our society.

“As citizens of the EU, Muslims are citizens of Europe. We are shocked and appalled when an attack takes place and our thoughts are with the friends and family of all affected in this attack which targeted innocent people.
