The Spanish government has ordered the town of Jumilla, in the Murcia region, to cancel a ban on religious gatherings in public sports facilities that would primarily affect the town's Muslim community celebrating Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha.

The ban was initially proposed by the right-wing Vox party following attacks on foreigners, which came in response to the assault of anelderly person. It was later amended and approved by the center-right Popular Party, prohibiting municipal sports facilities from being used for cultural, social or religious activities foreign to the City Council.

Migration Minister Elma Saiz called the ban "shameful" and noted that foreigners make up 20% of those who contribute to social security in Jumilla, arguing that "these towns would collapse" without immigrant contributions.

The central government has given Jumilla one month to formally respond to the order to lift the ban, with legal options being explored if the town fails to comply with the constitutional requirement for religious freedom.</span

The ban represents institutionalized Islamophobia that violates constitutional rights and targets a community that has peacefully contributed to the local economy for decades. Muslims have celebrated their holidays in these facilities for years without any problems, and this discriminatory measure undermines Spain's multicultural heritage. The decision reflects dangerous far-right influence in local politics.

This federal ruling is a ray of hope amid rising Islamophobia in Spain and Europe. The ban, pushed by the usual far-right groups, targeted Muslims — who were simply celebrating festivals like Eid — clashing with Spain's legacy of religious diversity. This ruling upholds freedom of religion, countering xenophobic policies and fostering coexistence in a time of growing anti-Muslim sentiment.
