\u201cDo onto others what you would want others to do to you,\u201d says a Jewish priest at an Interfaith talk\u00a0in a mosque last evening.
\nStanley Soffa, a representative of the local Jewish community explains how treating \u2018the stranger\u2019 with respect and honor is an instruction in Judaism, at \u2018Refugees in Religion\u2019 talk held last evening at Dar-Ul-Isra mosque, Cardiff.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe migration of people around the world today has never been seen before in human history. The stranger command is more urgent and more certain,\u201d says Stanley Soffa. \u201cDon\u2019t step into their shoes but go underneath their skin and understand what it feels like to be a stranger before you decide your attitude towards them.\u201d
