Masses gathered across Canada around mosques to form protective fencing termed by organisers as “human shields” and “rings of peace” the reason being Muslims in the country were doing their first Friday prayers since a gunman shot dead six men who were praying at a Quebec mosque.

“No Canadian should be afraid to go to their house of worship to pray,”  said Yael Splansky, the person behind the effort to set up “rings of peace” around Toronto mosques. “It’s a terrifying scene. Imagine people of faith going to pray for peace, to pray for peace, and to be at risk. Houses of worship are sacred and must be protected.”

Muslim Association head, Syed said, “Although this tragedy has taken an irreparable toll on Muslims across the country, the kindness and generosity of fellow Canadians has been a great source of comfort. Canada has spoken: no to hate, no to bigotry, no to religious violence, no to intolerance.”
