Islamic Centre in London caught selling Hezbollah phone cases

On 1 Feb 2026 GB News reported that the Islamic Centre of England, located on Old Church Street in Maida Vale, London, was selling phone‑cases bearing photographs of Hezbollah’s late leader Hassan Nasrallah, who was killed by an Israeli strike in 2024. A dossier of photographs showed stallholders at the centre’s free‑entry event offering the cases, which display the Syrian‑Lebanese cleric’s image. The sale prompted the Charity Commission to reopen an investigation into the centre’s activities, raising questions about the charity’s compliance with UK law on extremist promotion. The incident gained national attention, with GB News describing the centre’s “glorification of Tehran‑led militancy.” The case highlights ongoing scrutiny of UK charities linked to foreign extremist networks.
