As a tribute to a Southfields man killed by terrorists in Pakistan in May, volunteers at a Morden mosque have been preparing for the UK’s largest Islamic convention this weekend.
Meals and entertainment are being prepared for an estimated 30,000 visitors from 80 countries visiting the annual Jalsa Salana, in Alton, Hampshire, from Friday, July 30, to Sunday, August 1.
Ahmadiyya Muslims will publicly pledge to reject extremism, weeks after Southfields businessman Muhammad Ashraf Bilal was one of 86 worshippers massacred by Taliban militants in Pakistan in May.
Hadhrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad, global supreme head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, said: “Extremists are creating havoc and seek to destroy those who disagree with their dogma.
“We will continue to respond with patience and prayer and let never give up our belief and trust in God.”
