"Ghulam Ahmad proclaimed that there could not be any violence, so as a way of dialogue, he laid the foundation which is called the World Religions Conference. The first World Religions Conference was in his lifetime back in India."

Diversity and tolerance were front and centre Thursday night at the Ranchehouse when the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama’at, the main Ahmadiyya Muslim community in Calgary, hosted the World Religions Conference in its tenth appearance in Cochrane.
“The part of Islam which we call the Ahmadiyya community was founded about 125 years ago, in 1889,” said Kalim Ahmeb, spokesperson for the conference organizing committee. "His [founder Ghulam Ahmad’s] mission is to remove the misunderstandings and the wrong practices which have crept in in Islamic faith."
The Ahmadiyaa Jama’at works to break down these misunderstandings through World Religions Conferences all over Canada just like the one held in Cochrane last week. Representatives from a multitude of religions gather in a room and speak on what their followers can learn from each other, each year with a different theme. This year’s was “Fundamentals of Establishing Lasting Peace.”
