In this insightful discussion, Abdullah Hashem Aba al-Sadiq, successor to Imam Ahmad al-Hasan, clarifies the nature and mission of the Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light community based in England. He addresses common fears regarding religious gatherings, explicitly distinguishing his community from violent cults or terrorist groups by emphasizing their strict adherence to peace, non-violence, and the sanctity of human life. The conversation explores the theological foundation of the community, which centers on recognizing and supporting the Imam of the time as dictated by the Will of Prophet Muhammad. Abdullah describes their goal to establish a 'divine just state' starting with a small, diverse group living in harmony, sharing resources, and transcending racial and national boundaries. Members from over 100 countries live together, practicing a lifestyle of brotherhood and mutual care reminiscent of early Christian and Islamic communities. Significant attention is given to the community's decision to homeschool their children. Abdullah explains this choice as a means to protect children from negative societal influences, inappropriate curriculum, and safety threats, noting that harassment from outsiders has necessitated increased security measures. He affirms that all their practices, including homeschooling and self-defense, are fully legal under UK law and supported by professional legal counsel. Finally, the speaker recounts recent conflicts with mainstream media outlets and documentary filmmakers who attempted to sensationalize the community. He reveals how the community resisted unfair filming conditions and successfully countered false accusations with evidence, asserting that their movement continues to grow despite external opposition. This video is essential for anyone seeking to understand the true identity and values of this emerging religious community.
