Message of Peace

Love for All, Hatred for None

President Reagan said,” I call upon the scientific community in our country, those who gave us nuclear weapons, to turn their great talents now to the cause of mankind and world peace: to give us the means of rendering these nuclear weapons impotent and obsolete. “Star Wars” missile defense plan, 23 March 1983.

Such voices have been rising from the East as well. Mirza Nasir Ahmad, the third Caliph to Messiah Ahmad said it on July 28, 1967 in a public lecture at the Wandsworth Town Hall London., England. Professor Salaam, an Ahmadi Muslim Nobel Laureate in Physics, always worked for Atom for Peace.

We are living in a global village and we are all in the same boat. If a nuclear war starts today, the whole world will suffer. The very existence of mankind & the food reserves will be in danger. Every year the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community organizes a Peace Conference in London which is well attended.

He has written exhaustive letters to various Heads of States; Israel, Iran, UK. USA, France, New Zealand, Russia. “My request to you, and indeed to all world leaders, is that instead of using force to suppress other nations, use diplomacy, dialogue and wisdom. The major powers of the world, such as the United States, should play their role towards establishing peace.”

“One day we must come to see that peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but that it is a means by which we arrive at that goal. We must pursue peaceful ends through peaceful means.” Rev. Martin Luther King Jr

About Ahmadiyya Muslim Community:

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is a dynamic, reformist and fast-growing international movement within Islam. Founded in 1889, the Community spans over 200 countries with membership exceeding tens of millions. Ahmadiyya Muslim Community USA, established in 1920, is among the oldest American-Muslim organizations.

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is the only Islamic organization to believe that the long- awaited messiah has come in the person of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (1835-1908) of Qadian, India. Ahmad claimed to be the metaphorical second coming of Jesus of Nazareth and the divine guide, whose advent was foretold by the Prophet of Islam, Muhammad.

The Community believes that God sent Ahmad, like Jesus, to end religious wars, condemn bloodshed and re-institute morality, justice, and peace. Ahmad’s advent has brought about an unprecedented era of Islamic revival and moderation. He divested Muslims of fanatical beliefs and practices by vigorously championing Islam’s true and essential teachings.
