Crisis in Britain: Halt on Using the Term ‘Islamophobia’ Sparks Controversy
———————————
The crisis surrounding the UK government’s approach to dealing with anti-Muslim hatred has intensified, according to a report by the English newspaper The Telegraph.

As reported by Shia Waves Agency, citing The Telegraph, a decision by a government committee to cease using the term “Islamophobia” has raised serious concerns among Muslim groups and human rights activists.

The newspaper warned that refusing to formally define anti-Islamic hatred could create a discourse that links Islam with extremism and justifies discrimination against Muslims. Furthermore, the decision is seen as undermining trust between the Muslim community and the UK government.
