‘As a practising Christian who has been to the inside of the mosque to observe prayer service for the first time, I am struck by the similarities between religions, and the great spiritual axiom that runs between them with love as a common theme.’

Over a hundred and fifty Kiwis had a chance yesterday to break fast with the Ahmadiyya Muslim community. Held at the community’s Bait-ul-Muqeet mosque in Auckland, this annual event brings together people from all faiths and backgrounds to experience the breaking of the fast, or ‘Iftar’, and to see first hand some of the customs and traditions of Islamic faith.
Speaking at the event, Mr Bashir Khan, the President of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat New Zealand said, “With the negative perceptions portrayed about Islam, we feel it is essential to open our doors to the wider community, and give them a chance to come and see for themselves how true Islamic teachings differ from what the actions of some fanatics may suggest. If we understand each others perspective, then that will surely lead to a more peaceful coexistence.’
