Entire population of Rabwah charged under anti-Ahmadiyya laws in Pakistan

PERSECUTION REPORT

** ENTIRE POPULATION OF RABWAH CHARGED UNDER ANTI-AHMADIYYA LAWS IN PAKISTAN**

The entire population of Rabwah (aka Chenab Nagar), including women and children face the prospect of potential criminal proceedings after the Chenab Nagar Police Station filed First Information Report (FIR) 254/08 under anti-Ahmadiyya laws prescribed by the Pakistan Penal Code.
**
Background**
This year throughout the world the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is celebrating the centenary of ‘Khilafat’ which is the system of spiritual succession that begun in 1908. The peace loving community has held events marking this occasion throughout the world. One such event was held in Rabwah where in May 2008 for one night the Ahmadi residents of the town lit earthen lamps as a means to illuminate and decorate their homes and buildings.
**
Criminal Proceedings**
In the FIR the police authorities have taken issue with the lighting of the town. It further mentions that one Ahmadi, Muhammad Yunus, was seen selling caps and badges which had the words ‘Congratulations over the Khilafat Centenary’ and a verse of the Holy Qur’an printed upon them.
The said FIR charges all ‘residents of all neighbourhoods of Chenab Nagar town’ and thus opens the door for the authorities to arrest any resident of the town. Thus far Muhammad Yunus has been arrested. All persons who are charged under this FIR face up to three years imprisonment.
**
Comment**
The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community has faced for decades hatred and persecution both at an institutional and individual level in Pakistan. The Community has always borne this persecution with quiet dignity. In the town of Rabwah anti-Ahmadiyya rallies are held by organisations such as Khatme-Nabuwat in which people are encouraged to brutally injure or even kill members of the Ahmadiyya Community. The Government of Pakistan has not only declared Ahmadi Muslims as non-Muslim but have gone much further by failing to protect the human or civil rights of its Ahmadi citizens.
It is most unfortunate that the authorities actively encourage the hateful persecution of the Ahmadiyya Community and regularly invoke anti-Ahmadiyya legislation such as in this case which prevent Ahmadi Muslims from living in peace.

Re: ENTIRE POPULATION OF RABWAH CHARGED UNDER ANTI-AHMADIYYA LAWS IN PAKISTAN

^ I am ignorant, please enlighten me. In case you don't know this is a discussion forum, not a news website, thanks.

i know its a discussion forum.. but maybe if you would have read the article i posted, you would know what i am trying to get across

and if you read it and you still don't know what it says, then you're right, you really are ignorant

Re: ENTIRE POPULATION OF RABWAH CHARGED UNDER ANTI-AHMADIYYA LAWS IN PAKISTAN

^ dude, there are tons of articles that can be pasted here, the point is what YOU are trying to say, what needs be done etc. Don't be a bot, talk about the article.

Leme tell you their modus Ope*****. What these Mirzais also known as qadyanies do is that they " Publish Fake News of Prosecutions " in local newspapers owned by their own community and then seek assylum in the West.
The tell fake stories that they are tortured, raped and killed in Pakistan but the fact is that they were living good lives in Pakistan.
The Canadian Government these days have become very strict in their assylum laws and they have decided not to give mirzais assylum.
My request to Mirzais of Pakistan :

" Please don't disgrace Pakistan by filing false assylum cases"

Thanks

i know theres tons of articles that can be posted.. but i posted this one and no other one... and i really don't have any strong opinions about it, its not like anything can be done

but if you have some questions then i'll try to answer them, i'm not a scholar or anything, but i'll try my best

we publish fake news in papers that we own? i don't think that the bbc is owned by ahmadis, thats one newspaper that i know has stories about the persecution of ahmadis, there may be others i don't know. by the way this story is not about rape, killing, etc, its just about how ahmadis are not treated justly by the government... anyone would agree to that

so you're saying that ahmadis should not apply for asylum? thats something they do because they are not treated equally in pakistan

and canada is strict now? well good for them, its their policy, its their country, they can do whatever they want

Please don't disgrace pakistan by filing false asylum cases??? i don't think that by applying for asylum we embarrass pakistan any more than pakistan is already disgracing itself by doing stupid things

and go learn how to spell asylum, smarta**

**Thanks

**EDIT: fixed discgrace to disgrace.. to make ehtasab happy

Re: ENTIRE POPULATION OF RABWAH CHARGED UNDER ANTI-AHMADIYYA LAWS IN PAKISTAN

It doesn't mention who filed the FIR, which particular "thana" where the FIR was filed, besides so far only one person has been arrested (not sure what the law states and which particular para/chapter was violated). It doesn't even provide text of FIR. All it does is cry "persecution". I agree that there is persecution and what not but this particular article in question doesn't seem to provide much material in that sense.

:)

you're right it doesn't say where the report was filed, who filed it, etc or what chapter the man violated, i wish i knew

there may be further development on this story, hopefully some of these questions will be answered, if i find anything i'll post it here

Re: ENTIRE POPULATION OF RABWAH CHARGED UNDER ANTI-AHMADIYYA LAWS IN PAKISTAN

I'm not the literary nut that many of you here are but here are my two 'silly' cents.

I dont know too much about fake articles being posted but if this indeed did happen then it seems a little harsh.. everyone should have a right to freedom of expression as long as its peaceful.

Now the defendant type manner that its being presented here will automatically put whoever responds on the offensive side of things nahee? Nothing can ever be solved unless discussed without being on middle ground.

yes you are right.. if i was not a muslim.. for example if i was christian, and everyone else here was christian, and we were discussing this article, we could actually reach a conclusion.. this way, we could be arguing all day and we won't get anywhere

is that what you are trying to say?

Re: ENTIRE POPULATION OF RABWAH CHARGED UNDER ANTI-AHMADIYYA LAWS IN PAKISTAN

I think we should reach a point as muslims where we can manage to live together peacefully -- we have allot going against us as it is.

Its not a matter of being a muslim but the fact of the matter is that in Pakistan Muslims and Mirzais are living in peace together. Nobody harrasses or tortures Mirzais but Mirzais and their Self Declared Khaleefa’s always do propaganda in the west that their lives are at stake in Pakistan to get their assylum cases approved.
Well we acknowledge that you have your own religion and your own Prophet and at the same times u must appreciate the fact that you are out of Islam caz you don’t have the same Prophet as us

Muslims have Hazrat Mohammad Peace be Upon his as their Final Prophet

where as Mirzais of Pakistan is a cult following of an east punjabi guy named Mirza Ghulam something who claimed to be a Prophet and for that claim he was rewarded by the British in 1800’s

I am pasting a link where u can see how Mirza sahab ( The Prophet of Mirzais ) looked like

Mirza Ghulam Ahmad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

So, my Mirzai friends…I respect u but please dont call yourself muslims caz you are not!

My being muslim is not for you or anyone else in this world to decide. Thats between Allah and me.. and if thats the case for me a Sunni muslim then let it be the case for mirzahi or shia or anything else.

You know what they say brother -- point one finger at me and there are four pointing back at you.

Bitter completely agree with you there. They have thier own beliefs and thats that. Mey baath kar rahee thei to be able to discuss things and you've proved that it can be done so I thank you for that.

As for the differences -- again thanks for the information I didnt know all this about mirzahi people.

You can start by NOT calling them Marzai as they consider that offensive.

you’re making up more bs, but u never answered my first post..

how can u say that ahmadis are living in peace in pakistan.. just do a simple search on google, and u will see many examples that contradict this, many are not even written by ahmadis.. and why does it bother u that ahmadis get asylum, if they were treated equally, there would be no need to

ahmadis do not have their own religion, or their own prophet.. and who are you to judge them..

APPRECIATE the fact that you are out of islam?? you’re kidding me right.. your ignorance astounds me

and please don’t tell me who i am or who i am not.. i am well aware of who i am

Re: Entire population of Rabwah charged under anti-Ahmadiyya laws in Pakistan

Guys, lets not turn this thread into whether Mirza followers are Muslims or not, we have "Religion" forum for that, lets discuss if there is anything in the first post!
