Gah of Ahmadiyya Muslims in Pakistan was broken
Lahore: Incidents of violence and discrimination against Ahmadiyya Muslims are common in Pakistan. People of Ahmedia community have been harassed here for decades. Sometimes fundamentalists target mosques and sometimes people associated with the community are brutally murdered. Now once again in Pakistan, fundamentalists have shown blessings and Ahmadiyya has prevented members of the minority community from offering Eid prayers in many cities.
What did the police do?
Police in Punjab have arrested 2 people of the Ahmadiya community for trying to sacrifice animals during Eid-ul-Azha (Bakrid). The police have also registered a case against 3 other people. The Jamaat-e-Ahmedia Pakistan (JAP) has claimed that the radical Islamic party Tehreek-e-Labback Pakistan (TLP) has also forced 2 Ahmedia people to abandon their religious beliefs.
Ahmadis targeted
Let me tell you that in recent months, religious fundamentalists have constantly targeted members of the Ahmedia community. According to Jamaat-e-Ahdia Pakistan, Ahmadiyas have been prevented from offering Eid prayers in Khushab, Mirpur Khas, Lodharan, Bhakkar, Rajanpur, Umarkot, Larkana and Karachi. Not only this, Tehreek-e-Labback Pakistan activists created a ruckus at Giri Shahu, the oldest Ahmadi worship site of Lahore and demanded the police to seal it. Taking action, the police have sealed the Ahmadiya worship site.

The total population of Pakistan is around 25 crores, in which the number of people from Ahmadiyya community is said to be around 5 lakhs.

Who is Ahmadiyya Muslims?
Ahmadiyya community is a religious movement that Mirza Ghulam Ahmed started in 1889 in Kadian (currently India) in Punjab province of British India. It began as a reformist sect within Islam. The people of the Ahmadiyya community consider themselves Muslims and follow the 5 basic principles of Islam Namaz, Roja, Zakat, Haj, and Tauheed. However, some beliefs of the Ahmadiyas community are different from mainstream Sunni and Shia Muslims. Ahmadiyya Mirza considers Ghulam Ahmed as the last Prophet. This belief of Ahmadis is the main reason for the dispute between mainstream Muslims who consider Prophet Muhammad to be the last Prophet. (Language)
