SIR - Re. the article in the T&A recently regarding claims a ban on a mosque opening for Friday prayers due to the Covid-19 pandemic is a breach of worshippers' human rights. (Read the full story here)
I feel very sympathetic towards this Bradford mosque leader, because our most major event of the Christian faith over Easter, where we have for a month special prayers and services, was cancelled and our church locked up. We have prayed at home and celebrated with family members.
Each Sunday we now have a service online which a lot of churches seem to be doing.
We agree it is not the same but we have to respect our Government's rules with no exceptions.
We will overcome this virus and get back to normal which everybody wants, we just have to be patient be safe and carry on. God bless you all.
