Centenary Event – Islamic Light in the West: A Century of Spiritual Revival

The event marks one hundred years when His Holiness Hazrat Mirza

Bashiruddin Mahmood Ahmad (may Allah be pleased with him), the Second

Caliph (Spiritual Leader) of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, embarked on

an historic tour from India to the UK. It was the first time that a Caliph of the

Ahmadiyya Muslim Community had come to the UK.

As part of that tour His Holiness delivered a keynote address at the Conference

of Some Living Religions in the Empire in London and, on 19 October 1924, he

laid the foundation stone for the Fazl Mosque – the first mosque in London.

Ever since that visit The Fazl Mosque (also known as The London Mosque)

and the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community UK have played a pivotal role in

promoting Islam’s message of peace and the need to strengthen one’s link with

God and to serve humanity. This was the essence of Islam as revived by the

founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad

(peace be upon him).

To mark this centenary we are holding a special dinner and a feature exhibition
