H&M has recalled a range of socks after a pattern which resembled the word Allah was featured on it.

The image was meant to be that of a Lego figurine holding a jackhammer but turn it upside down and it appears to say 'Allah' in Arabic.

A statement from H&M read, “At H&M we always aim to offer products that we believe our customers will appreciate,"

"The print on this sock represents a Lego figurine, any other meaning is entirely coincidental and we apologise if this motif has offended anyone.”

The company have said that all socks have been recalled.
