When the World Becomes an Idol: Lessons for a Muwahhid, Usman Jamil
Usman Jamil talks of the spirit of true sacrifice, “The Promised Messiah (as) taught that charity only carries spiritual weight when it comes from sincerity. When we give with a trusting heart, That is when Allah turns our wealth into blessings. But if we give only after hesitation and year end calculations… that wealth stops being a blessing — and quietly becomes an idol.”

Speaking of idols, Usman Jamil says “The Promised Messiah (as) taught that the most dangerous idols are the ones hiding inside us — ego, arrogance, pride, jealousy, self-importance, and the desire to be seen and praised. And that: True success — true transformation — only begins the moment these inner idols are shattered. And this is not just a spiritual truth; the world itself testifies to it. Wherever you look — the organizations that endure, the businesses that flourish, the Jama’ats that shine — all are led by people of humility, sacrifice, and hearts that prioritize service over self.”

Arab nations and the Iranian government should seek peace based on mutual Islamic beliefs; otherwise, anti-Islam interests will seek to take advantage of this situation, His Holiness Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad, the World Head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, said.
"Although we have technologically advanced, our greed has increased."
His Holiness Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad diagnoses the malaise of materialism in the world, whereby powerful nations continue to usurp the wealth of weaker countries despite claiming to be civilised.
🚨 BREAKING NEWS: Piro Chak, Sialkot - Extremists launched violent attacks on Ahmadis—1 injured by firing, several beaten, 5 houses & a shop set ablaze. Reports link TLP to demands forcing Ahmadis to vacate their property. State must act before this turns into ethnic cleansing.
An alarming escalation with no end in sight. The TLP’s reign of terror on innocent Ahmadi Muslims in Pakistan must be stopped before further crimes against humanity are committed. The Government of Pakistan must act promptly or otherwise be held to account.
"Rather than opposing Muslim immigrants, the far right would do better to oppose the unjust wars costing billions in taxpayer money, rather than the refugees it brings to our shores. " .....
The far right's anger is misplaced.
Official figures show most immigrants are students or workers, not those coming on small boats.
Yet asylum seekers & Muslim immigrants in particular are scapegoated in place of poor government policy.

Hazrat Mirza Bashir-ud-Din Mahmud Ahmad, Khalifatul Masih IIra, once explained that forgiveness from a weak man appears cowardly, but forgiveness from a strong man is noble. Strength gives weight to your character and intentions.

AIPAC is sending fundraising emails attacking me for saying, “the most truthful and easiest thing to say that Oct 7th in Israel was horrific and all hostages must be returned, but so is the genocide, humanitarian crisis, and starvation happening in Gaza.”
Well this is the sign on the front door of my office and I think the truth is AIPAC doesn’t like it because I UNAPOLOGETICALLY REPRESENT AMERICA!🇺🇸
I’m one of the only members of Congress that doesn’t take money from AIPAC, who donates way more money to Republicans than Democrats.
The truth is AIPAC needs to register as a foreign lobbyist by U.S. law because they are representing the secular government of nuclear armed Israel 100%!!!
While Congress is out on recess and supposed to be working in our districts, they just took a bunch of members of Congress to Israel to make sure they don’t step out of line.
While AIPAC is lying to their donors about me claiming I’m “betraying my American values” the REALITY is AIPAC 1,000,000% serves and lobbies for a foreign country, Israel!!
I’m as AMERICAN as they come!
I can’t be bought and I’m not backing down!!
I’m fighting for my children’s generation and for AMERICA ONLY!!!!
Bring. It. On.
Opposition was meant to break us, yet it became the very path through which many entered the fold of #Ahmadiyyat. Our beloved #Khalifa reminded us: The more they try to extinguish the Light, the brighter it shines. Even in stillness, #Allah’s plan unfolds.
