The Federation of Islamic Associations is pleased Chris Hipkins has called for a ceasefire of the conflict in Gaza.
Mr Hipkins made the plea not as the caretaker Prime Minister, but in his role as Labour Party leader.
The Federation sent a letter to Mr Hipkins and incoming Prime Minister Chris Luxon last week, asking for stronger action to condemn the violence in Gaza.
Abdur Razzaq of the Federation of Islamic Associations spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
