“Westminster Abbey turned into a mosque”

Carlos III It is in the eye of the hurricane and, this time, it has not been for its delicate state of health, with which it had dealt since February 2024, at which time Buckingham palace announced that the British monarch suffered cancer. Prince Guillermo’s father and Prince Harry, who despite his illness complies with his institutional commitments, showed his support for Islam coinciding with the Ramadan celebration.

Specifically, Carlos III, next to Queen Camila, packaged dates in an Indian restaurant in London, a product that will be stored in boxes to later send them to hospitals for IFTAR (night food with which the daily fast is broken during the Ramadan) in the month of August.

“Packaging dates in Darjeeling Express! Traditionally, dates are eaten as the first food to break fasting at sunset during Ramadan. Their Majesty helped package dates, which will be sent to local hospitals for IFTAR during the sacred month“They wrote from the official account of the Royal House along with a video of the kings packaging dates.

Beyond this affectionate gesture towards the Islamic religion, Carlos and Camila also met with a group of Muslim women, among whom was the professional rugby player Zainab Alema and the writer Hajera Memon. Subsequently, the king greeted the Syrian chef Glaressan entrepreneur who directed several restoration stores in Damascus, before they were destroyed by war.

However, these gestures of the kings of England have unleashed multiple criticisms on social networks. “England is now a Muslim country“Baseball player wrote ironically John Rocker. “Soon it will be the Caliphate Caliphate of the United Kingdom, with the Westminster Abbey turned into a mosque, and instead of the Archbishop of Canterbury they will have the Tower Hamlets mufti“Another user said.

Despite the negative comments they received, Carlos III and Camila took advantage of their visibility in social networks to congratulate Ramadan. “We want all the Muslims of the United Kingdom, the Commonwealth and the entire world a blessed and peaceful world“They said.
