An Islamic youth organisation was permitted to register as a charity, despite having been accused of antisemitism.

The Cricklewood Muslim Youth Trust (CMYT) posted a tweet in December 2021 warning Muslims: “Keep away from the enemies of Allaah the Jews and Christians [sic]”.

The group, which aims to advance Islamic religious practices, was not registered as a charity at the time of the post, which has since been deleted.

The charity regulator has been subject to criticism for allowing the CMYT to register earlier this year.
