If Ahmadi Muslims around the world are used to these kind of barbaric behaviour from the bigots of Pakistan, the very fact that an English newspaper does the same is extremely shocking.

Shocked and disgusted. At first, I could not believe what I was seeing. An english newspaper promoting the same terrorism, the same values and using the same tools as the anti-ahmadiyya bigots in Pakistan.
After posting a two page advertisement relating the 125th year of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, Luton Sunday apologized on behalf of all the Muslims for the pseudo blasphemy they had made after meeting members of the Preservation of the Finality of Prophethood Forum which according to Luton UK represents the only “Muslim Community”. Here is the original statement from Luton on Sunday
This utterly biased statement is completely discriminating the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in the same way as they are in Pakistan where Ahmadi Muslims have been constitutionally declared as non muslims and heretical. The members of the group Preservation of the Finality of the Prophethood are a very well known group in Pakistan as they openly call at the killing of Ahmadi Muslims and hold conferences for that matter. Moreover, they argue that Ahmadi Muslims deny one fundamental principle of Islam which is the finality of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) whereas actually Ahmadi Muslims only provide a different interpretation of the arabic word “Khatam”. By playing on the words, the members of this group allow themselves to discriminate and judge on their own that Ahmadi Muslims have no right to call themselves as Muslims and severely persecute Ahmadi Muslims (as many Asia Human Rights or Human Rights Watch reports have constantly related).
If Ahmadi Muslims around the world are used to these kind of barbaric behaviour from the bigots of Pakistan, the very fact that an English newspaper does the same is extremely shocking. For more than 100th years that Ahmadi Muslims have been established in the UK, they have always promoted peace, humanity, tolerence and compassion towards Mankind. Most of all, they believe, according to the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) teaching, that loyalty to one’s coutry is part of the faith.
Regardless of any theogical argument, the very fact of apologizing to one community by letting down another is contrary to the secularism UK promotes. Lutton UK have mentionned in their apology that they take pride in the relations they enjoy with the Muslim community and “indeed all the communities” whereas they are clearly taking a position, the same position the bigots in Pakistan took 40 years ago : denying Ahmadis their Muslim identity.
Undoubtedly, today Luton UK made a pact with the devil, a judgemental devil who takes pride in defying God’s power to judge who is believer and who isn’t. As far as Ahmadi Muslims are concerned this incident will not prevent them from promoting Love for All and Hatred for None.
