Terrorists defiled the name of Islam 13 years ago on September 11th, and they continue to do so under the banner of ISIS.

The Holy Quran, however, clearly outlines the sanctity of life when it states, "Whosever killed a person ... it shall be as if he killed all mankind' and whoso gave life to one, it shall be as if he had given life to all mankind" (5:33).

In the spirit of this verse, the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is beginning its 4th annual "Muslims for Life" blood drive campaign to honor the victims of 9/11. Last year, the Bay Point chapter alone collected 1,200 pints! As the Imam of the Bay Point mosque, I hope that you will join us in saving lives in memory of the victims of 9/11 by visiting www.muslimsforlife.org to find a blood drive near you.


Sheikh Ahmad Salman, Imam, Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Bay Point
