Each year, the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community hosts Canada Day celebrations across the nation.
Ahmadiyya Muslim Community (official name Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama`at) is a global religious organization founded in 1889. It has tens of millions of followers in more than 190 countries. The Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama`at categorically rejects all forms of extremism.
The founder of the community Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (as), the Promised Messiah and the Mahdi, declared that extremism and an aggressive "Jihad with the sword" has no place in Islam. The best way to defend Islam is through an intellectual "Jihad with the pen". The motto of the community is "LOVE FOR ALL- HATRED FOR NONE".
The community is known for its unique approach to interfaith dialogue and active engagement in charitable work; such as running schools and hospitals in the developing countries where the need is most acute.
