World leader of Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat, Hazrat Mirza Ahmad and many dignitaries at the 2015 international conference have called on mankind to strive to achieve love for all and hatred for none in their daily activities.

They made the appeal at the 2015 convention of the Jamaat in Oaklands Farm, United Kingdom.

Addressing over 35,000 delegates from all over the world, the leaders urged people to stop making judgments without facts as well as live without prejudice.

"Our differences should not be reasons for conflicts. Let us embrace what unites us as humanity irrespective of all the differences. Let us cooperate to bring love, peace and harmony to our various communities."

All the guests, Muslims and non-Muslims alike commended the jamaat for standing for good news while calling on them to keep working hard to do this.

At the international initiation of new converts and rededication of old members to the true teachings of Islam and the 10 conditions of the Bai’at, the world leader urged them to desist from speaking evil of others as this will only create further enmity among people. He charged people all over the world and Muslims especially, to love one another.

Reacting to the crises in most parts of the world as well as the activities of ISIS in the Middle East and Boko Haram in Nigeria, he stated that the world was in its dark age, and urged true believers to promote the true teachings of Islam and set it right for others to emulate.

He added that the gathering of this sort was meant to make the Muslim a better person and change the world for better.

According to the Huzur, living peacefully with one another is the hallmark of Islam. With the growing Islamophobia, the Jamaat works with stronger passion and zeal to spread the true teachings of Islam.

The leader of the Nigerian delegation to the ongoing annual convention of the Jamaat, Dr. Mashuud Fashola made it known that members are compiling notes on ways of tackling the common problems of terrorism in some parts of the world and the spiral effect of poverty in Nigeria and other African countries, and see how nations and Muslim individuals can effectively tackle terrorism and the scourge of poverty.

According to him, at the end of the convention, the Jama’at will come out with possible solutions to the two hydra-headed challenges of terrorism and poverty.

He said that the impact of a virtuous woman is very important as she will be able to raise a good family.

Also, the Head of Tabligh in Nigeria, Dr. Saheed Timehin, sought the visitation of the Khalifa to Africa and Nigeria in particular, saying the visit would engender huge spiritual benefits.

Timehin stated that Ahmadiyya in Nigeria’s healthy relationship with the media has helped tremendously in spreading the message of peace in the country.

Delivering a lecture on “National reformation is related to personal reformation,” Muhammed Tahir Nazeem of the Arabic Desk of the Jamaat in UK urged members to work to follow the injunctions of the glorious Quran as explained by the Imams in various sermons.

The spiritual leader also advised men to always treat their women with respect and dignity.
