A vigil has been held in Canada in memory of a Muslim family killed when the driver of a pick-up truck ran them over.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has called the attack on the Afzaal family in Ontario a “terrorist attack”.
Police say the crime was motivated by anti-Muslim hate.
A 20-year-old man, Nathaniel Veltman, was arrested and charged with four counts of first-degree murder and one count of attempted murder.

Who made human beings….
I am brown! I am so worried !
This country future is not safe . Soon ppl will be beheaded after all it’s becoming islam country
And this will provoke some and lead to an Islamist terror attack and the cycle will start again unfortunately.
Inalilahi waa innahu ileyhi rajoon. May Allah grant them jannahtul firdaws Ameen.
Canada is a country made up of immigrants from all over the world the only real canadians are the native indians
This guy is absolutely great I’m a Muslim and I would definitely show my respect to Trudeau for not being biased to a particular people
Against Islam? You have Islamophobia? Ok
We are not fear about your problem. Our sisters hizab show our love to women.
For every 1 we lost as a Human bacome sahid. And 10 accept islam as a there religion.
Well played nature
Canada needs to walk the talk, enough hot air. Trudeau and the Liberals need to honestly address racism and Islamaphobia, like the NDP.
Canada stands for justice to all its citizenry … understanding and respect makes peace… long live Canada
Alhamdulillah islam is Peace
OMG😱😭😭😭! Isn’t just Canada…. moreover 6 billion people on this planet in ALL NONE ISLAMIC COUNTRIES in this world are AGAINST Radicalization, AGAINST Jihadism, AGAINST Terrorism, and OPPOSED to the Islamic Politics!😭! What’s wrong with the world today???😭.
The truth can be uncomfortable, but that doesn’t mean we get to distort it. We have to confront ourselves to grow. And we are lucky our Prime Minister is leading the charge.
Well done to Canada for all sticking together and Canadian PM is just a gem love him !!! Shame to say there are a few bad uneducated people everyone in the world who thinks killing innocents is the way forward love to Canada from 🏴
Have fun with islamism taking over your country
Inna lillaahi wa inna ilaihi raaji’uun, Allahummagfirlahum war hamhum wa ‘aafihii wa’fu ‘anhum, may Allah SWT grant them with jannah, aamiin..
This is how a leader of the great nation addresses and takes the responsibility of the wrong that’s happened in the society and try to wake up his nation with words to come together and be better people. God bless Canada and Canadian people.
This wasn’t simply a hate crime but an act of terrorism committed by a specific person.
I thought Canada is a country where diversity is understood and respected. RIP the souls of innocent citizens. Respect to the leadership of 🇨🇦. ❤️ from a Pakistani American. I wish one day we all stand up as humans and put down our differences.
maybe it has something to do with the religion itself?
Pakistanis in the UK throw down at instances like this
Racism is at large in Canada but no one speaks about it
Islam is not a race
Why not get thouse news papers and TV channels who decide humanity by printing hate should be accountable for this
Talks are not enough
Rare in Canada but an everyday occurrence in the racist USA
May Allah bless all of us, Jannah for all of my muslim brothers and sisters inshaallah
I call everyone to listen Quran Pak Recitation ❤️🤲
Salaam Justin trudo Sir I appreciate your decision Allah bless you and your country Masha Allah
Despite all the problems still Canada is the best Country on Earth, I believe those hate are from USA citizens migrated to Canada , greetings from Tanzania
Im sorry but if racism and Islamophobia are real, why this still happen ? So after saying and recognizing it … will this be the last one ? Its funny how we say things we recognized it but nothing happens to totally stop it ! This will not be the last !
Deepest Condolences to the family.
i love justin i love humanity i love peace i love islam
Hats off.
I’m proud I’m not a Muslim
So after what Donald Trump said was actually true. Isis attack must be stopped
this is more division for us. without facts ppls opinions are becoming facts, this is not democracy

Pfffft. Islamaphopia. 😆 Let’s make some more stuff up.
People who were out dancing on pakistani streets celebrating the murder of Salman Tasseer are whining about islamophobia. So cute
Do Dawah.
ISLAM oldest and true religion
Prophet Adam (pbuh) use to worship ALLAH
ALLAH means God in Arabic
RIP All victims respect Mr PM you are genius always stand with vulnerable .
We missed it with Indian PM
Do study about asia bibi .
My Allah give the people who lost their life Jinnnah Ameen

God bless the crusader who took the life of the pakisthani invading family .
This is what we called real leaders ❤️💙
Thank you Mr. Prime minister. I believe and we all pray that one day this beautiful world created by Allah (the almighty creater of all) will be free from all such brutality.
Ameen
He is a true leader 🔥.
Canada is blessed …..
To be very frank I don’t feel any kind of bad thing after seeing this.. And the reason is not like m came here with stone heart but the reason is i c this kind of thing atleast once in a week and it happens so frequently that slowly slowly it bevomes normal for ours muslim communities.. We uses to proud to be indian but now we can move anywhere around the world because now we feel ashame being an indian yes now atleast my family feels, yes the family who lost their loved ones they feel same..
Unfortunately we are indians, unfortunately one week before a mewati muslim guy has been lynched by hindutva Goons and yesterday night another one has been killed..
And here not even any mainstream media shows this on screen..😊😊
We don’t hate any part of the earth but yes we started to hate the goons who lives on the earth specially the Hindutva goons around us here in India..
Inna lillahi wainna Elaihi Rajioon😥
May Allah give place to this family in Jannatul Firdous…Aameen 🤲
My Bothers & Sisters
Islam is the right and true religion
Who shows us the way to the success of the world and the Hereafter.
Allah is one
Allah is greatest
There is No God but Allah
And Hazrat Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is the Messenger of God.
Accept Islam, you will come in peace.
I’m a Muslim. We are so kind to everyone. Why still denied it. 😔
Congratulation sir
The so-called media is now completely silent.
