KCC Historic Address

 My dear Members of the Jama‘at
Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuhu

Today [the 27th May, 2008] one hundred years of Khilafat-e-Ahmadiyya have come to their completion. This day draws our thoughts to the history of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama‘at, spread over a period of more than one hundred years, as well as of the time when according to the prophecy of the Holy Prophet^saw, a chosen servant of Allah, by His command, made the announcement on March 1889 about the foundation of this Holy Community.

The objectives of his mission and that of the establishment of the Jama‘at were to establish the relationship between God and man, to teach mankind to submit to one God, to strive for establishing Tauhid in the world, and, having united all the nations of the world into one Umma, gather the whole mankind under the banner of the Holy Prophetsa and to draw the attention of mankind to recognizing and respecting the mutual rights of man.

The person whom God, having bestowed on him the titles of the Imam, the Messiah and the Mahdi, had sent to the world, successfully carried out his mission with the support and help of Allah for almost nineteen years—since the foundation of the Jama‘at and the first Bai‘at in 1889 until 1908 when he passed away—in spite of all kinds of opposition and unfavourable circumstances with such expeditiousness that every adversary who opposed this Champion of Allah suffered ignominy and disgrace.
