AhmadiyyatIslam: 1st day success of UK Ahmadiyya Annual Convention updated on Twitter

The Twitter-imposed 140 characters limit on the text of the messages did not impede AhmadiyyatIslam in any way in conveying the essence of the day’s proceedings in just 5 rapid-fired tweets.

The day one of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jalsa Salana (Annual Convention) in the UK completed successfully, AhmadiyyatIslam reported in the day's concluding updates on Twitter.

The event, which began with Friday Sermon and Opening Address, both delivered by Hadhrat  Mirza Masroor Ahmad, Head of the worldwide Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, was broadcast live by Muslim Television Ahmadiyya (MTA).

According to the updates by AhmadiyyatIslam on Twitter at the conclusion of the first day, His Holiness spoke of the courage exhibited by the Lahore Ahmadi martyrs and how the May 28 attacks had inspired the community to become even more unified and devoted to the cause of Islam.

Hadhrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad said: ‘Opponents had hoped that attacks on Ahmadis would lead to fear, but let it be clear Ahmadis are not scared of anyone except Allah.’

The weather on day one of the convention turned out to be very pleasant with hardly any rain, the updates by AhmadiyyaIslam reported. However, it did get warm inside the main marquee where the convention attendees were listening to the proceedings, the tweets added.

The "translation of Jalsa Salana proceedings [is being made available] in various languages," was stated in the final twitter update. "Full Jalsa Coverage on MTA (UK - Sky 787) mta.tv," was the signoff message by AhmadiyyaIslam for the evening.

The Twitter-imposed 140 characters limit on the text of the messages did not impede AhmadiyyatIslam in any way in conveying the essence of the day’s proceedings in just 5 rapid-fired tweets.
