His Holiness was addressing a crowd of 30,000 gathered to participate in the 46th Ahmadiyya Muslim Annual Convention at Hadeeqatul Mahdi in the English countryside near Alton, UK.
Individual Ahmadi Muslims, community delegates and many governments’ representatives have traveled to the UK International Annual Convention from all over the world.
On this second day of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Convention, His Holiness, Hadhrat Ahmad, detailed the expansion of the community in just about every facet of progress, including the joining of 512,352 souls to the peaceful Ahmadiyya Islam.

The community added 338 new mosques worldwide during the year which include 119 locations newly added by the community and 219 locations that came to the community due to the mass conversions in the localities where the mosques were situated.

Respected Shah Sahib, Jazakallah Khaeran Ahsanal Jaz’ for this encompassing summary of Hudhur’s Speech on the Progress of Worldwide Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in the last 12 months. The report is yet another testimony of the Mighty Hands of Allah behind this Divine Jama’at. I am of Nigeria, and I have been following very keenly and with all sense of humility the tremendous progress of the Jamaat all over. My conclusion is ‘ALL PRAISE BELONGS TO ALLAH for fulfilling His Words of:
Allah has promised to those among you who believe and do good works that He will surely make them Successors in the earth, as He made Successors from among those who were before them; and that He will surely establish for them their religion which He has chosen for them; and that He will surely give them in exchange security and peace after their fear: They will worship Me, and they will not associate anything with Me. Then whoso is ungrateful after that, they will be the rebellious.
Therefore, the Progress of the Jama’at is solely due to the blessing of KHILAFAT-e-RASHIDAH that has continue through the Promised Messaih, peace be on him. Alhamdulillah.
Alhumdo Lillah ! This is significant and a another sign of the fulfillment of the promises of Allah granted to Hazrat Masih-e-Maoud.
Ahmadis all over the would have all the reasons to rejoice of this magnificent victory and all the more reasons for the opponents to sizzle with jealousy and feel embarrassed of their failures.
One of the promises Promised Messiah (peace be upon) in Haqeeqatul Wahi cites is ” I will give you an army (of followers) in the days when the Promised Messiah had only a handful of followers.
Part of another revelation is ” JAOK DAR JAOK” which roughly means CROWDS UPON CROWD perhaps we are crossing threshold promised in the revelation.
