Our work is to spread the message and tell the world that Islam is the one true religion – Youth from Switzerland meet Hazrat Khalifatul Masih A group of Atfal and Khuddam from Jamaate-Ahmadiyya Switzerland had a sitting with Hazrat Khalifatul Masih, may Allah be his Helper, on 15 February. Upon arrival, Huzooraa enquired about the total number of Atfal and Khuddam. Following this, the group had the opportunity to spend time with and ask Hazrat Amirul Momineenaa questions on different topics. The first question was presented by a tifl who asked why Allah, in the Holy Quran, has ordered mankind to do certain things and refrain from certain things. In response, Huzooraa said that God has revealed the Holy Quran and told us what is permissible and what things we should refrain from and by following these teachings, we can attain God’s pleasure. One young boy then asked what prayer should be recited upon viewing the Ka‘bah for the first time. Huzooraa said that it is mentioned in narrations that the prayer made at the first viewing of the Holy Ka‘bah

is accepted. Huzooraa added, “The first Khalifa of the Promised Messiahas on one occasion mentioned that upon viewing the Ka‘bah, he prayed to God for all of his prayers to always be accepted. Thus, this is a matter of the heart; there is no condition of which prayer should be recited. What you feel in your heart at the time, you may ask for.” A young tifl asked which prayer he should recite to ensure he is successful in life. Huzooraa replied, “First you should make an effort, then pray to God that may He bring your hard work and effort to fruition.” A question was asked by another boy with regard to the hadith about the latter days, in which the Holy Prophetsa said that even if faith were to reach the Pleiades, then a man from among the Ahl-e-Faris (of Persian decent) would bring it back. The young boy asked if there is anyone living at the Pleiades. Responding to the question, Huzooraa said, “The Holy Prophetsa only gave Continued on page 3

On 16 February, Lajna Waqifaat-e-Nau from the UK had a sitting with Hazrat Khalifatul Masih V, may Allah be his Helper. The class commenced with the recitation of the Holy Quran from Surah Aal-e-Imran. This was followed by a hadith and an extract from the writings of the Promised Messiahas. Next, a speech was delivered on the promise Hazrat Maryam’s mother made regarding sacrificing her

child to serve God. After this, the Waqifaat-e-Nau had the opportunity to ask Hazrat Amirul Momineenaa questions. The first question asked was on the topic of black magic, the Lajna member asked Huzooraa about his perception of it and how we can explain it to a nonAhmadi who believes black magic to be Continued on page 6
