(Guardian) Gloucester Cathedral removes Muslim prayer clip from Facebook page

A cathedral has removed a clip of a Muslim prayer being recited within its precincts from its Facebook page after it was heavily criticised for allowing the event to take place.

The prayer took place in Gloucester Cathedral’s chapter house as part of the launch of a multi-faith art exhibition, and was well-received by those who attended.

The cathedral decided to take down its social media post on the event following some of the comments it received on its page.

    People need to understand their own faith before learning the faith of others. I think this is often an attempt to lessen the unique tenets of the Christian faith.
