Putting that in context, the UK’s population is approaching 70million, of which the Muslim population is around 4% AFAIK.
Every city in the UK has areas where crime and anti-social behaviour is more prevalent than elsewhere. If you’re visiting the UK as a tourist you’re probably unlikely to go anywhere near such areas. In general, national holidays and major sporting events are perfectly safe for all. The UK does not have a gun culture; shooting incidents are still relatively rare. Sadly, knife crime is increasing, especially amongst teenagers.
If you’re concerned, research the areas you intend to visit before you travel. The usual personal safety precautions apply wherever you go, of course eg https://www.victimsupport.org.uk/help-and-support/keeping-safe/personal-safety/ and https://www.met.police.uk/cp/crime-prevention/personal-safety-how-to-stay-safe/pickpocketing/
