Perspective: 'Islam is a religion of peace' | Razi Qudrat
“We Ahmadi Muslims sympathize and love humanity and so wherever mankind suffers in any way, it leaves us grieved and pained.”

The attack in Manchester has left me feeling both grief and anger.
I sympathize with the families of the victims, many of whom were innocent children. Their entire lives have been changed forever and I extend my sincerest condolences and prayers for their well-being. No one deserved this.
I am also angry. Some may claim that this attack was motivated by Islamic teachings. This could not be further from the truth. Islam is a religion of peace. The Qur’an — the holy book of Islam — makes it clear that such attacks against innocent civilians have no basis within society and religion.
Many global Muslim leaders, including Mirza Masroor Ahmad, have condemned these attacks, stating “these are militant groups, not followers of the true religion and we always stand against them.”
