A British autistic and non-verbal boy, known as 'The Joshie-Man', has been spreading a message of love and solidarity by distributing cakes at mosques across the United Kingdom in response to rising far-right sentiment. His 'Cake not hate' campaign began after an attack on a mosque in Peterborough, where he and his father brought baked goods to comfort the congregation. On a recent trip to Madinah, he adapted his campaign to the local culture by handing out dates at the Prophet's Mosque, renaming the effort 'Dates not hate'. The visit was marked by warm hospitality and a profound sense of peace, with the boy and his father deeply moved by the diversity and kindness they experienced in the city.
