The leadership of Manchester Cathedral has apologised for allowing the Muslim call to prayer, known as the adhan, to be made at an interfaith event.
Church of England guidance says that the adhan should not happen in a consecrated space. But on this occasion, it took place in the nave of the cathedral.
Revd Matthew Firth is a neuro-scientist and full-time stipendiary vicar and Diocesan Church Planter for the Northern Diocese of the Free Church of England.
