The following report is an edited version of a loosely translated and adapted excerpts from the piece filed by Martin Schreier for Reutlinger General - Anzeiger

The Ahmadiyya Muslim community introduces itself at the Open Mosque Day

Reutlingen. "Please remove your shoes", is posted at the entrance of the Ahmadiyya community center in the former Frottierweberei Möve.

The Muslim religious community here has invited to an ‘open-house day’ on Monday.


The prayer room is specially prepared where one finds the floor, only with strips drawn to form  rows of the prayer, is now set up with tables, chairs and a portable display board.

On the walls hang placards, religious posters and pictures of the many activities of the community members.

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat (translated as Ahmadiyya Muslim community) is a reform movement, which was founded in 1889 by Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad.

"The community stands for peace and to promote the true teachings of Islam, as it was originally intended," said the designated youth leader Ahmed Sindhu Nadi.

"We're represented in 198 countries around the world, with 76 prayer centers in Germany and 36 mosques."

200 members are from the Reutlinger community.

"We are glad to be in Germany, because there is religious freedom here," says Sindhu.

The Ahmadiyya Muslims are against terrorism and take stand for the human rights.

The twenty-year-old points to a poster that is intended to illustrate that the true concepts of human rights are derived from the Holy Quran.

The president of the community, Ahmed Gill Bosharat said the guiding principle of the community is "Love for All, Hatred for None"

The Ahmadiyya community tries to build five to seven mosques in Germany each year.

The community is attempting to establish a similar facility in Eningen unter Achalm also.

A property had been reviewed by the municipality last year and architectural and engineering plans were already completed, however the area was sold elsewhere,

Now the search continues. (GEA)
