Local members of the southern Ahmadiyya Muslim Community to hold Australia day celebrations in grandeur as the controversial Australia Day public holiday comes close.

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in Adelaide, invites you to their annual Australia Day celebrations on Friday 26th January at the Morphet Vale Noor Mosque.

Despite the controversy surrounding the date of Australia Day, this community plans to hold an event as a gesture to the opportunity and quality of life this beautiful country has given them. Most members of the community face backlash and persecution in their home countries and have sought asylum in Australia. For them this day is important to acknowledge the religious freedom, freedom of speech and dialogue that Australia has provided.

The National President of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community of Australia, Imam. I.H. Kauser said:

“We, the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, always pray for the progress and development of our homeland, Australia. As per our traditions we will celebrate Australia Day in all Mosques across Australia. We stand shoulder-to-shoulder with our nation, government and people because our religion teaches us that love of country of residence is part of faith.”

The event will commence at 11am AM Friday, the 26^th of January with the national anthem. Some children will deliver short speeches on what being Australian means to them followed by a few words by David Spiers, member of Black. The community will honor recipients of high academic achievement and community service with Australia Day Awards with the event wrapping up with a BBQ lunch.

This day holds special significance for the Community; the Ahmadiyya Muslim Mosques across the country will begin the day offering prayers for the prosperity of Australia. Members of the community will also participate in community celebrations throughout the day.

The Worldwide Head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, the Fifth Caliph, His Holiness Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad guides Community members in this regard:

“True loyalty requires a relationship built on sincerity and integrity… it is essential for a citizen of any country to establish a relationship of genuine loyalty and faithfulness to his nation. It does not matter whether he is a born citizen, or whether he gains citizenship later in life..."

28-30 Hillier Road, Morphett Vale, SA, 5162
