The second day of the 49th Jalsa Salana (Annual Convention) of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in the United Kingdom continued, yesterday, at the vast Hampshire farm known as ‘Hadeeqatul Mahdi’ with more delegates and guests trooping in. Over 35,000 people from over 90 countries including Nigeria are present at the event.
The World Head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, the Fifth Khalifa (Caliph), His Holiness, Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad, delivered the Friday Sermon, where he said the purpose of the Jalsa Salana was to promote the true and peaceful teachings of Islam.
Ahmad said: “In this day and age, it is of great regret that some Muslims have misconstrued the true teachings of Islam to such an extent that the world has become fearful of the beautiful and peaceful teachings of Islam.
“When people are presented with the true teachings of Islam by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, they are left shocked or surprised.
Many have said to me personally that if what you present are the true teachings of Islam then the world will gladly once again turn towards religion and towards Islam.”
