MY MOSQUE DAY: 'Great to finally see inside the mosque I have walked past everyday for the last eight years'

Thousands of Britons visited over 150 mosques participating in the third annual ‘Visit My Mosque’ Day.

Many mosques invited non-Muslims to the buildings to witness afternoon prayers and also laid out whole array of foods.

Here's just some of the mosque who took part and the best from the web and some of the fantastic responses from non-Muslims.

@PFencesMusic shows you don't know anything, ill informed and uneducated. Take look at the mosque in Bolton and perhaps learn something new. pic.twitter.com/AOXfj3njzG
