Jalsa Salana UK 2016
UK JALSA SALANA 2016 PART 4 A Personal Account By Abid Khan 1 Introduction to Part 4 This is the concluding part of the personal account I have written in relation to Huzoor’s activities during the days of Jalsa Salana 2016, as well as the week preceding it and the week after. This final part will include further meetings held by Huzoor with various groups, as well as media interviews and various other activities. Tunisia delegation On Wednesday 17 August 2016, Huzoor’s meetings with delegations of Ahmadis and non-Ahmadi guests from different countries continued. One group to meet Huzoor that morning was a delegation from Tunisia. At the very start of the meeting, the Tunisian delegation placed a fruit tree on Huzoor’s desk as a gift. Upon accepting the gift, Huzoor said: “Is your Jamaat also giving me the fruit of increasing numbers of pious Ahmadis?” In reply, the Tunisian group replied all together saying: “Insha’Allah” 2 Huzoor then said: “In our Jamaat we should seek the best fruits which are of piety and spirituality.” Thereafter, an Arab Ahmadi, who was attending the UK Jalsa for the very first time, became very emotional. He informed Huzoor that he had recently seen a dream in which he saw the Promised Messiah (as), who handed the Ahmadi a copy of his book Brahin- e-Ahmadiyya printed on green paper. He was then handed another book by the Fourth Khalifa (rh), which was about Islam, and printed on white paper. Thereafter, the Promised Messiah (as) told the Ahmadi to give these books to the Arabs. -

HUZOOR's TOUR of GERMANY JUNE 2014 a Personal Account By
HUZOOR’S TOUR OF GERMANY JUNE 2014 A Personal Account PART 2 By Abid Khan 1 Departure for Munich On 9th June 2014, Huzoor and his Qafila departed from the Baitus Sabuh Mosque in Frankfurt at 10.15am. We were travelling to Neufahrn a small town, known as a municipality, lying in the suburbs of Germany’s famous city of Munich. Huzoor was travelling to inaugurate the Al-Mahdi Mosque. Apart from Berlin, Munich is considered to be Germany’s most famous city internationally. It is home to the famous football team ‘Bayern Munich’ and also home to the renowned car maker BMW. The drive from Frankfurt took nearly 3 and a half hours and as we approached Neufahrn the Qafila cars were escorted by 2 police cars. One of the police cars was a ‘special forces’ car which travelled at the rear of the Qafila, whilst the other police car acted as the lead car. Apart from these 2 cars there were other police cars that had completely blocked traffic on certain roads so that Huzoor’s car could travel directly without any delay. As I saw this I felt a great deal of gratitude to the German authorities for welcoming Huzoor in such a positive way. 2 Arrival in Munich We arrived at the AlMahdi Mosque at 1.35pm where Huzoor was greeted by a local dignitary. The dignitary spoke very passionately as he welcomed Huzoor and said that he held a very deep respect for the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. Huzoor thanked him for his courtesy and kindness. -

Addressee Name
United Nations Human Rights Council Universal Periodic Review – 14th Session Pakistan Submission of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Lawyers Association USA April 20, 2012 United States of America The Ahmadiyya Muslim Lawyers Association USA (“AMLA USA”) is an ancillary organization of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community USA. It is composed of Ahmadi Muslim lawyers in the United States of America. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Pakistan’s treatment of Ahmadi Muslims is in flagrant violation of its obligations under international law, most notably the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). Pakistan’s Constitution declares Ahmadi Muslims to be non-Muslim, thereby depriving them of the freedom to adopt a religion of their choice, in violation of Article 18 of the ICCPR. Pakistan’s Penal Code contains anti-Ahmadi provisions that prohibit Ahmadi Muslims from manifesting any aspect of their faith as Muslims, also in violation of Article 18. Pakistan also uses its blasphemy laws to discriminate against Ahmadi Muslims. Pakistan disenfranchises Ahmadi Muslims by placing them on an electoral roll separate from all other citizens, who are entitled to vote in a joint electorate, in violation of Article 25(b) of the ICCPR. Pakistan requires every passport applicant and national identity card applicant to make a declaration of faith, and requires any citizen who wishes to be known as Muslim thereon to make a declaration denouncing Ahmadi Muslims as non-Muslim, in violation of Articles 12 and 20 of the ICCPR. Pakistan denies Ahmadi Muslims the right to free assembly, guaranteed under Article 21 of the ICCPR. Finally, Pakistan has failed to protect the life and liberty of Ahmadi Muslims, and governmental authorities (particularly at the provincial and local level) are complicit in advocating religious hatred against Ahmadi Muslims, in violation of Articles 6, 18, and 20 of the ICCPR. -
CPIN Pakistan Ahmadis
Country Policy and Information Note Pakistan: Ahmadis Version 4.0 March 2019 Preface Purpose This note provides country of origin information (COI) and analysis of COI for use by Home Office decision makers handling particular types of protection and human rights claims (as set out in the basis of claim section). It is not intended to be an exhaustive survey of a particular subject or theme. It is split into two main sections: (1) analysis of COI; and (2) COI. These are explained in more detail below. Assessment This section analyses the evidence relevant to this note – i.e. the COI section; refugee/human rights laws and policies; and applicable caselaw – by describing this and its inter-relationships, and provides an assessment on whether, in general: x A person is reasonably likely to face a real risk of persecution or serious harm x A person is able to obtain protection from the state (or quasi state bodies) x A person is reasonably able to relocate within a country or territory x Claims are likely to justify granting asylum, humanitarian protection or other form of leave, and x If a claim is refused, it is likely or unlikely to be certifiable as ‘clearly unfounded’ under section 94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002. Decision makers must, however, still consider all claims on an individual basis, taking into account each case’s specific facts. Country of origin information The country information in this note has been carefully selected in accordance with the general principles of COI research as set out in the Common EU [European Union] Guidelines for Processing Country of Origin Information (COI), dated April 2008, and the Austrian Centre for Country of Origin and Asylum Research and Documentation’s (ACCORD), Researching Country Origin Information – Training Manual, 2013. -
