Members of the Al-Madinah Mosque, located next door to Kenilworth Road, attended the event, which saw the breaking of the fast during Ramadan.

Manager Rob Edwards said, "I was inspired after seeing how supportive the Muslim community had been after the club earned promotion in May."

He added, "We're such a diverse town, but seeing everybody coming together was really special, and that will always live with me."

The event at Kenilworth Road included a recital from the Holy Quran before Edwards took to the stage with club chairman David Wilkinson to talk about the club's history.

Maqsood Anwar, from Madinah Mosque, said that being based "across the road" from the stadium made for a "close-knit" community.

Mr. Anwar said, "Events like the one at Kenilworth Road could help prevent Islamophobia. We must get all the community together, so people get to know about Iftar and learn about Islam, which builds cohesion in the community, saying that football brings us all closer together."
