Shipley MP Anna Dixon visited two mosques last weekend as part of The Muslim Council of Britain’s Visit My Mosque initiative.
Ms Dixon attended Masjid Al-Furqaan and Masjid Ayesha, meeting with Imams and community members to discuss interfaith relationships and how to stand together in the face of Islamophobia, antisemitism, and racism.
The open days, which welcomed everyone, were aimed at educating the public about the Muslim faith and what happens at a mosque.
Ms Dixon said: "Particularly after the horrendous riots we saw over the summer in other parts of the country, it is good to be able to celebrate the diversity of Shipley constituency.
"I want to thank everyone at the Masjid Al-Furqaan and Masjid Ayesha mosques for their generous hospitality and for organising such fantastic events."
The open days were also attended by West Yorkshire Police representatives.
