London, (IINA) - Scores of imams from across Europe converged here, to condemn the atrocities falsely committed in the name of Islam, urging Muslims worldwide to retake the "digital space from those who wish to tarnish their faith", media sources reported.

Over 120 Imams attended an anti-extremism summit in the British capital and released a digital magazine to promote the true face of Islam.

The summit was held as a direct response by British Muslims to counter the threat of radicalization within Britain and Europe.

"We are reclaiming the online space, but we need absolutely everyone to get involved in this effort. So this is a call to log on, get informed, and share the magazine with all your friends and family online," said Qari Asim, senior editor of Imamsonline.com and contributor to the magazine.

Imams Online is an online resource which offers advice and education about the Islamic faith. Bringing together more than 700 Imams and Mosques from across Britain, Imams Online has become the first port of call for anyone wishing to find out more about the religion.

The digital magazine, developed with contribution from Imams and scholars, aims to deliver a clear and positive message for readers with information that they can share easily across their social media network.

Aiming to deliver a clear and positive message for readers, the new magazine is developed with contribution from Imams and scholars, offering young Muslims information that can be easily shared across social media.
