100 Years of Propagation of Islam in the UK – 3 Days to go

We are only three days away from our three day convention celebrating one hundred years of Lahori Ahmadiyyah propagation of Islam in the UK.

The main event, on Saturday 4th May, which is being held to commemorate and celebrate the arrival of Hazrat Khawaja Kamal-ud-Din in the UK. A number of scholars will describe the history of how he wrested control of the Shahjehan Mosque in Woking from Dr Leitner’s son and brought it back to Muslim control. He created the Muslim Mission at the Mosque and from there defended Islam throughout the world, not just in the UK. Muslims as far as Singapore, Malaysia, South Africa and South America benefited from his missionary work and defense of Islam against the attacks of Christian missionaries.

Don’t miss these interesting lectures and presentations. There will not be another such celebration for another 100 years.

We will be live broadcasting the whole day as usual for all the people around the world who will not be able to attend.

100 Years of Propagation of Islam in the UK – 4 Days to go

Inspired by Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, Khwaja Kamal-ud-Din came to the UK to propagate Islam and, in 1913, restored the Woking Mosque to Muslim control, so that Muslims would have a place for prayer. The Woking Muslim Mission was established there and it became the Islamic Centre in the UK. Many overseas Muslim dignitaries would make it a part of their trip to visit the Mosque when they came to the UK to see for themselves the work of the Mission. The Woking Muslim Mission defended Islam in the West Indies, South America, South Africa, the European Continent as well as the UK.

We are only five days away from our three day convention celebrating the above achievement and one hundred years of Lahori Ahmadiyyah propagation of Islam in the UK.

Day one, at our Wembley Mosque, will start with Jummah Prayers promptly at 1pm and will be lead by Hazrat Amir. This will be followed by our first round of speeches from 3pm (GMT).

We will be live broadcasting the whole day as usual for all the people around the world who will not be able to attend.

How to Propagate Islam?

We read from Mulfoozat Volume Eight, pages 204 to 206.

When attacked by the sword Muslims defended themselves with the sword.

How should they respond when attacked by the pen? Should they kill the writer?

Importance of Mothers in Islam


During our monthly meetings at the Mosque we usually have one of the younger members give a speech along side a speech by a senior person.

Last weeks speech was by Simrah Zafar, who decided to talk about the importance that Islam gives to mothers. This topic was chosen as today is Mothers Day in the UK.

The Existence of Allah – An Answer to Dawkins


A few weeks ago Al Jazeera published a video in which Richard Dawkins and Mehdi Hasan had a discussion in Oxford, many things where discussed and this time it was Islam that was used in the arguement for/against the existence of Allah.

In our video we give a response to Dawkins on the existence of Allah, and also look at some of the comments made by Hasan, which seem to contradict Sunni beliefs.

Islam Without God

Is it possible to have religion without God? Thirty years ago, Don Cupitt’s Sea of Faith set out “Christian non-realism” – ethics without God – angering the Church and intriguing millions. Philosopher Alain de Botton has recently done the same. But is this just a concept for cynical post-Christians, or could it work for Muslims too?

The above embedded BBC Radio 4 programme (only available to people in the UK) looks to answer this question.

As Islam Grows, US Imams in Short Supply

Islam in America is growing exponentially. From 2000 to 2010, the number of mosques in the United States jumped 74 percent.

Today, there are more than 2,100 American mosques but they have a challenge: There aren’t enough imams, or spiritual leaders, to go around.

The above NPR article, which also has an accompanying podcast, looks into the rise of Islam in the US, and the dire need for more Imams who are classically trained but who possess good English skills and a thorough understanding of American culture.

With four out of five Imams, in the US, currently from abroad and primarily from the Middle East will they be able to achieve this goal?

Culture or Islam

Are you really following the message of Islam, or have you been sucked into the cultural aside which overtakes many a people?

Inshaal looks at this issues or culture creeping and overtaking the real message and meaning of religion.

Islam is the religion of peace

Dr Abdul Karim Saeed Pasha is the current Hazrat Amir of the Ahmadiyya Anjuman Isha’at-e-Islam Lahore movement. He has been travelling around the world visiting our mosques from The Netherlands to Suriname and he recently arrived on the last leg of this long tour in the UK.

On Friday 30th November 2012, we were privileged that he led the Friday prayers and gave a speech to the masses who came to see him in person.

The speech was based around the theme of how and why Islam is a religion of peace.

  • Azhar Ahmad

    Very nice sound, good picture and excelent sermon.
