I just found recently this story from the 2WW.
The Paris Muslims who saved Jews from the Nazis
http://www.sodahead.com/united-states/the-paris-muslims-who-saved-jews-from-the-nazis/question-2078841/
It is interesting to see how Muslims of France protected the Jews and work together against the NAZI. Unfortunately we hear a lot about the Mufti of Jerusalem and his contacts with Hitler, but rarely we hear about the imams of the mosque of Paris who saved hundreds of Jews from the Nazi and their ally.
In this difficult time, we should remember that we all are human and we can live in peace if we get rid from the selfish and arrogance.
“danger, Benghabrit used the mosque as a hiding place, issuing each person with a fake certificate of Muslim identity. One North African Jew named Albert Assouline who had escaped from a German prison camp, wrote of his experience hiding in the mosque, “No fewer than 1,732 resistance fighters found refuge in its underground caverns. These included Muslim escapees but also Christians and Jews. The latter were by far the most numerous.” Accounts differ on the number of those saved, yet it remains a shining story of human solidarity.”
