The Islamophobia Observatory of the Egyptian Dar Al Ifta welcomed on Friday the German government's move to classify Islamophobia as a "politically-motivated hate crime".

In a statement, the observatory said the new classification that will be discussed during a security meeting in June will help spread awareness about Islamophia among the German people, police and officials.

The observatory stressed the importance of using all possible means to stop the hatred campaign launched by a German party against Muslims in Germany.
