Noor Inayat Khan’s story is just one of many that tell of the common cause and courage of different communities and faiths that led to victory over Nazi Germany. Part of the Special Operations Executive she operated within Nazi-occupied France, transmitting messages back to London.
As her network crumbled around her, she became the most wanted British agent in Paris before her capture by the SS. Defiant until the end, she fought her captors and attempted escape twice. She was eventually executed after revealing nothing.

The Armed Forces Muslim Association (AFMA) supports Muslims in all branches of the British Armed Forces, helping them perform their duty in full without compromising their faith.
For serving personnel, life in the British Armed Forces is both rewarding and challenging. Not least for the hundreds of Muslims who help defend our country and safeguard its interests overseas. By land, sea and air, their commitment, discipline and faith are all tested.
AFMA was set up in recognition of the contribution Muslim personnel make across all three services, both in the Regular and Reserve forces.
From the earliest days of basic training, through to deployment and military operations, AFMA is on the ground helping support these dedicated men and women perform their military duties in full without compromising their faith.
