On behalf of over 500 clerics, scholars and Imams the British Muslim Forum issues the following religious decree:
 
{{blockquote|''[[Islam]] strictly, strongly and severely condemns the use of violence and the destruction of innocent lives. There is neither place nor justification in [[Islam]] for extremism, fanaticism or terrorism. [[Suicide bombings]], which killed and injured innocent people in London, are haram - vehemently prohibited in Islam - and those who committed these barbaric acts in London are criminals not martyrs. We pray for the defeat of extremism and terrorism in the world. We pray for peace, security and harmony to triumph in multicultural Great Britain.<ref name="bbc">{{cite webnews|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/4697365.stm|title=BBC NEWS &#124; UK &#124; Full text: Fatwa issued after London bombs|date=19 July 2005 |publisher=news.bbc.co.uk|accessdate=2015-07-28}}</ref>''}}
