Visitors included Christians, Athiests, Agnostics and Non-Ahmadi Muslims and some spent considerable amount of time viewing the exhibition and stayed to participate in subsequent discussions on Islam and Ahmadiyya.

Several non-Ahmadi Muslims praised the work of the Ahmadiyya Muslim community for setting up the Quran Exibition and spreading a peaceful message of Islam.

Free copies of selected leaflets were distributed to a large number of visitors. Visitors showed appreciation by giving positive feedback.
