My name is Farah Ahmad, and I reside in the Kincardine community.
I represent the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, whose slogan is “Love for All, Hatred for None.”
The misconceptions about my religion have unfortunately caused fear in people’s hearts which is apparent. The purpose behind writing these articles is to communicate the beautiful teachings of Islam with our neighbours in the Kincardine community, overcome any misconceptions and answer questions that our neighbours might have.
Introduction to Islam
The literal meaning of the word “Islam” is “peace,” and the followers of this faith are called Muslims. Islam was founded 1,400 years ago, by Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Islam is the faith of obedience, complete submission to God and also means to be at peace with all creatures of God. Islam teaches its followers to believe in all earlier prophets and scriptures, as they were revealed by God Almighty to his chosen messengers. Therefore, Islam establishes the continuity of God’s revelation which had descended upon earlier prophets such as Abraham, Moses, Jesus, Krishna and Buddha (peace be upon them all), and focuses on the central theme of obedience and submission to One God.
