Islamophobia Observatory praises UK government's definition of Islamophobia as racism

December 17, 2018
The Observatory for Monitoring Islamophobia at Egypt's Dar al-Ifta praised the call of more than UK 50 cross-party parliamentarians to adopt a new definition of Islamophobia which would classify discrimination against Muslims as a form of racism.
In a press statement issued on Monday, December 17, 2018, the Observatory commented that since its establishment in 2015, it issued many reports to confirm that Islamophobia has a significant negative impact on all aspects of British Muslims' life, from employment, education and criminal justice to housing, healthcare and hate crime.
