Review of Religions: A Keynote Address by Head of Ahmadiyya Muslim Community at Inauguration of “Khilafat Hall” in Sydney
On 18th October 2013, the Worldwide Head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama’at and Fifth Khalifah, Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmadaba, officially opened the “Khilafat Centenary Hall,” built next to the Baitul Huda Mosque in Sydney, with the keynote address at an Inauguration Reception. The event was attended by more than 200 non-Ahmadi dignitaries and guests, including a range of Federal and State Parliamentarians. A number of the dignitaries briefly addressed the gathering including Senator Concetta Fierravanti-Wells, representing Prime Minister Tony Abbott MP. Victor Dominello MP (Minister for Citizenship and Communities) read a message from NSW Premier Barry O’Farrell welcoming Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmadaba to the State.
In his message he said it was a great honour for New South Wales to host such a ‘venerable spiritual leader’. His Holiness then presented Mr Dominello with a cheque for $20,000 to help those affected by the bushfires.
