In the 120 year history of Jama’at Ahmadiyya, our Community has been called upon to make great sacrifices. Under the guiding hand of Khilafat and with a unique steadfastness, born out of our unshakeable faith in Allah, the Almighty, the Jama’at has never been found wanting.

 

The barbaric and senseless killing of Ahmadi Muslims in Lahore on Friday, 28th May 2010, represents one of the gravest incidences of brutality ever faced by the Jama’at. As loved ones come to terms with their losses and others await the outcome of injuries, many of which are grave, we repeat the prayer of Hadhrat Ameerul Mumimeen (atba) in his Friday Sermon of the same day “May we ever increase in our faith and belief and may this trial never become a cause of weakness for us.” 

 

Though our hearts may have sunk low with sorrow, our prayer shall remain that even as the souls of our beloved martyrs have today soared towards the heavens so might our faith, Insha’Allah. 

 

We, the members of the Majlis-e-Amila, Majlis Khuddamul Ahmadiyya United Kingdom HEREBY, by means of this resolution: 

 

1. Offer our most sincere condolences to the Worldwide Ahmadiyya Jama’at and the loved ones of those whose lives were taken in the cause of Ahmadiyyat on Friday, 28th May 2010. 

2. Pray that Allah may continually raise the status of all martyrs of Ahmadiyyat;

3. Offer humble supplications for the lives of those Ahmadi Muslims who were injured in the attacks that Allah may grant them all a swift recovery and long life; and 

4. Renew our pledge of allegiance to Khilafat-e-Ahmadiyya, resolve to offer any sacrifice required of us by Khalifa-e-Waqt and re-affirm our ardent desire to ever remain true “Servants” of Ahmadiyyat, Ameen.

 

This resolution is unanimously passed on 29 May 2010.
