ISLAM -- The Ahmadiyya Movement in Islam
(2 km north of Canada's Wonderland)
The Ahmadiyya Movement in Islam, a worldwide community projecting true message of Islam, has more than 70 million followers spread in over 160 countries around the world. The community was founded in 1889 by Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian, India (1835--1908), who claimed to be the Messiah awaited in Judaism, Christianity and Islam (as well as the expected Mahdi for Muslims), and also, the Later Day prophet awaited in many other religions under various other names, with the mission of guiding mankind back to God. The present leader of the community (called the "Khalifa") is Hadhrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad. He is based in London (U.K.).
