Arif Khan, imam at Bait ul Ahad mosque in Erskine Road, Walthamstow, is seeking to reassure Muslims after an attack in Finsbury Park shortly after midnight this morning (Monday, June 19).
A man died and 10 people were injured when a man drove a van into a group of worshippers gathered outside the Muslim Welfare House.
The group had been assisting a man who had collapsed when the van struck. The man has died but it is not yet clear if his death was the result of being hit.
Mr Khan, who is a member of the Ahmadiyya community, a minority Muslim sect, said he has ordered extra security to protect his congregation as they enter the final week of Ramadan.
