英国穆斯林信托基金会公布数据显示，英国清真寺遭遇攻击的频率显著上升[1]。过去一年内共记录超过70起攻击事件，平均每五天发生一起[1]。英格兰和威尔士地区的反穆斯林仇恨犯罪在截至2025年3月的12个月内上升19%[1]。
伦敦、大曼彻斯特和西中部地区成为攻击重点区域，其中伦敦单独记录了9起清真寺袭击事件[1]。英国穆斯林信托基金会首席执行官Akeela Ahmed指出："我们看到针对清真寺的攻击数量在稳步上升"[1]。
英国政府曾宣布推出最高4000万英镑的清真寺保护性安全资金计划[1]。然而，英国穆斯林信托基金会警告称资金申请程序繁复且审批延误严重，许多清真寺因此难以获得保护[1]。部分清真寺等待资金长达18个月，许多被拒绝资助但未获解释[1]。
根据英国穆斯林信托基金会与英国未来组织的研究，六分之一的英国人认为穆斯林人口增长"对英国文化构成根本性威胁"[1]。
A British Muslim Trust report on anti-Muslim hate monitoring has revealed that UK mosques face an attack approximately every five days, with over 70 incidents recorded in the past year [1]. Anti-Muslim hate crimes in England and Wales rose by 19% in the 12 months leading up to March 2025 [1].
London, Greater Manchester, and the West Midlands emerged as attack hotspots, with London alone experiencing nine separate mosque assaults [1]. Despite the government announcing a mosque protection security funding scheme worth up to £40 million, the British Muslim Trust has warned that the application process remains complex and approval delays are preventing many mosques from accessing protection [1].
According to the trust's chief executive, Akeela Ahmed, "We are seeing a steady rise in the number of attacks on mosques" [1]. The organisation reported that some mosques have waited up to 18 months for funding, while many others have been denied support without explanation [1].
Research conducted by the British Muslim Trust and the UK Future organisation found that one in six British people believe the growth of the Muslim population "poses a fundamental threat to British culture" [1].
