While extremists claim to act in the name of Islam, the Ahmadiyya Community call them criminals and murders. Ahmadi Muslims (plural) are teaching the public not to fear words like Muhammad, Islam and Jihad, and that Islam teaches peace, acceptance and love
"Jihad means 'struggle' – the internal struggle," says Imams Umair Khan of the Baitunnur Mosque in Calgary, Alberta. "Our Jihad in this era is through the pen. It's an intellectual Jihad. If people are attacking Islam through the media, then let's pick up our pens and retaliate with the (peaceful) teachings and knowledge of the Qur'an." This exploration of the Muslim-Canadian landscape shows how Calgary Muslims have embraced their motto of "Love for all, and hatred for none."— Prophet Muhammad |
