Description of the research topic:
Islam Ahmadiyyat is the name of the movement which holds motto of “love for all, hatred for none”. Ahmadiyyat was established in the end of 19th century. Since its beginning they practiced absolute non resistance and total nonviolence. The teaching guides followers not to pick up the guns against the government or any of the institutions. The basic Islamic concept of high morality and ethics is the environment of the community. Ahmadiyyat is strongly against Islamic fundamentalism and extremism; you will not find even a single person involved or attached with any terrorist organization from Ahmadiyyah community. There are more than 200 million Ahmadies in 202 countries but they are never engaged to any non state activity or rebellion. They are directed to show loyalty and patriotism in any country they live in. I can quote thousands of incidents of segregation, discrimination and prosecution directly or indirectly by the system of some Islamic countries but Ahmadies never went against them in any shape.
There is a great number of Ahmadies in Western countries in Europe, America and Canada. They are well known and well treated because of their unique style and version of Islam they practice. They hold a good position. As an example, last year The Holy Caliph (Head of Ahmadiah Community) was ranked among top two most honorable personalities in England.
Ahmadiat was introduced to Europe in 1907 when a women entered in Ahmadiyah community. Head of Ahmadiyah community always had friendly and cordial relations with the British government in India as he wrote one of his book in honor of Queen of Britain. He always ordered his followers to respect the British government who equalized all the ingenious scattered nations.
Ahmadies started moving to Europe when the Pakistani government systematically started the prosecution against them in 1970s till today. Ahmadies are safe in European countries. They practice their life according to the faith, celebrate their occasions and three days convocation in different European countries. Ahmadies are invited to the sociopolitical conferences, the parliament members visit the head of the community on convocation to know his views on different political matters. Often press conferences and peace conferences are held to spread the true and moderate message of Islam.
In short, Ahmadies are treated with respect and dignity in Europe. There is a huge diaspora in all European countries they merge with the European societies so easily because of the moderate teachings. Only in Germany there are 47 mosques of Ahmadiyah community and more then 200 Ahmadiyah mission centers. The education department in Germany has permitted Ahmadiyah Muslim community to undertake Islamic teaching classes in the primary Schools of Hessen State of Germany.
