MUSLIMS are being issued with a security manual after sick posters promoting the so-called Punish a Muslim Day were shared throughout Britain.
Counter terror cops began to investigate the vile documents after we revealed they were being posted through the letterboxes of Muslim households in East London.

The sick letter was first reported to have been posted to Muslim families in East London - but they are now being investigated through the country
The leaflets list a string of tasks telling people how they can win "points" by committing increasingly serious offences against Muslims.
This includes winning 10 points to "verbally abuse a Muslim", 100 points to "beat up a Muslim" and 2500 points to "nuke Mecca".
And now The Sun Online has learned that Muslims are being issued with a "security bulletin" as a result of the letters.
It is understood that WhatsApp messages being shared by community leaders have told Muslims to stay indoors on the day that Punish a Muslim Day is due to take place next month.

The letters are being probed across the country by counter terrorism officers
This, it is hoped, will minimise any risk of threat to the Muslim community - however the security bulletin urges Muslims to continue their regular routines.
It reads: "While we share your deep concerns and fears, we recommend that you continue your daily routines while remaining vigilant and continue to look our for each other."
The bulletin, which has been shared around mosques across Britain in a safety campaign organised by Tell MAMA, also lists safety tips for Muslims on the day.

Londoners were the first to receive the letters - however they have now been sent elsewhere
Counter Terrorism Policing North East is coordinating the investigation into the letters.
The letters have been received by Muslims in West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, Leicestershire and across London.
The Embassy of Kuwait has today called on nationals living in London to take precautions on the day.
Muslim MPs have also received the letters.

Doncaster, South Yorkshire, where cops are also investigating the letters
Detective Chief Superintendent Martin Snowden, Head of Counter Terrorism Policing North East said: "We take religious hatred extremely seriously and my officers will be carrying out a full and thorough investigation in response to these reports.
"These letters seek to cause fear and offence among our Muslim communities. They also seek to divide us.
"Yet in spite of this our communities have shown strength in their response to such hatred and in their support for each other.
"We continue to encourage anyone who believes they have been a victim of such an offence to contact their local police force on 101. We'd also appeal to anyone with any information about the individual, or individuals, responsible to call police in confidence on 0800 789 321."

A Muslim Council for Britain statement read: "This vile letter campaign sent to Muslims across the UK has caused deep distress and alarm.
"We welcome the action being taken by the police to investigate this matter.
"Sadly it is reflective of hate against Muslims which continues to manifest itself alongside the rise of the far-right.
"Our elected officials need to stand up and take action against Islamophobia in the same way they have taken action to counter bigotry against other groups."

They are told...
- Be alert of your surroundings
- Stick to public routes you know are well lit and busy
- Avoid shoutcuts through unlit areas. If it feels unsafe, find a more public route, especially at night
- Let a family member or friend know about your travel plans
- If you are worried, carry a personal alarm and use it when needed
- If you are attacked or abused, try to note down the perpetrators' appearance, clothing and where the incident took place
- If it is safe to do so, take a photograph and then report the incident to Tell MAMA or the police
