Ahmadiyya Muslim Community USA is holding “Muslims for Life” blood drives nationwide and one of those blood drives will be in Murfreesboro, according to Saima Sheikh who is a Media Associate with the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community USA. The event will be on Thursday at the Red Cross Donor Center in Murfreesboro on Memorial Boulevard. In case you are trying to make the local connection and are wondering where the nearest Ahmadiyya Muslim Group meets in Rutherford County, there is an Ahmadiyya mosque in Smyrna, Tennessee. The mosque in Smyrna opened in 2009, but that is not where the blood drive will be.
WGNS was told in an email that the “Muslims for Life” blood drive campaign emphasizes the sanctity of life, a teaching inherent in all religious traditions. Ahmadiyya Muslim Community USA has set a goal to collect 12,000 pints of blood, which will help save up to 36,000 lives around the country.
Members of Ahmadiyya Muslim Community USA will also travel door-to-door to promote and bring awareness to this humanitarian campaign. Nationwide, various mosques, churches, synagogues, libraries, universities, and other public locations are scheduled to set up blood donation centers.
