In order to show solidarity for New Zealand’s Muslim population, a “human chain of love” is being organised for mosques around New Zealand. Besides that, a Facebook event that has been scheduled for Friday at 12pm, with the theme ‘NZ Stand Together’, hoping to get people out to their local mosques to join hands in a chain around the buildings.
According to Newshub, the campaign NZ Stand Together is being organised by Jude Fippard, who said, “It has the blessing and approval of the NZ Police and the [Auckland] Muslim Community Liaison Officer.” She appealed, “Let’s form a human chain of love and support around your local mosques on Friday at noon so they can pray in peace.”
Recently a group outside a Californian mosque formed the “human chain” in a show of support and protection from non-Muslims during Saturday prayers.
