A centuries-old church in London opened its doors for Muslims to break their fast at the church. The church leaders fasted alongside Muslimsand organized a prayer session and Iftar for hundreds of Muslims, to promote interfaith harmony.<\/p>\n

St. James\u2019s Church, Piccadilly, joined hands with the City Circle to invite more than 400 Muslims as well as followers of other faiths for a grand interfaith Iftar dinner and invited London\u2019s new Mayor Sadiq Khan as the guest speaker.<\/p>\n
Mayor of London Sadiq Khan, who has been fasting and famously broke his fast on stage during the European Union referendum national debate on the BBC, said that it\u2019s the duty of Muslims to reach out to non-Muslims and explain the real positive nature of Islam to dispel the wrong perceptions about Islam and Muslims.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Khan told the audience that it was important for Muslims, Hindus, Jews, Sikhs, Christians and others to come together and beat poverty and inequality in London as all faiths stressed on the need of serving humanity and ending poverty and injustice in all forms.<\/p>\n
