The Ahmadiyya Muslim Student Organization presented their interfaith dialogue Coexist: A Message of Peace throughout The University of Texas campus community on Sunday, April 29 in the SAC Black Box Theatre.
Founded to spread awareness of Ahmadiyya Islam, the purpose of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Student Organization is to promote a peaceful co-existence with all races and religions. Student, faculty and staff members of the group provide services that benefit both UT and the community. Service opportunities for the religious organization encompass events such as interfaith dialogues, Islamic faith and Ahmadiyya presentations, and blood drives. Through their efforts, the Ahmadiyya Muslim Student Organization strives to promote unity and dispel misconceptions about their faith.
“You have to find that inner peace and proper connection with God,” said Usama Malik, president of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Student Organization. “Then and only then can you peacefully coexist with everyone around you.”
From Christian to Jewish and Islamic perspectives, Coexist posed the question: “How can we all coexist peacefully despite our religious differences?”
