Ever noticed how converts to Ahmadiyya don’t devote countless hours to talking trash about the beliefs they left behind, but Ex-Ahmadis often do? It’s because Ahmadi converts have found peace & solace; instead of devoting all day to spewing negativity they devote t/s to God.

My parents brought me here when I was one. Even today, I would be arrested for my beliefs in Pakistan, or killed without investigation. Yet; #Canada celebrates me for my beliefs. #CanadaDay2020

I noticed her watch. Michael Kors. The quintessential Starbucks (which I also had in my hand) and the familiar scent of Lily by Marc Jacobs contrasted the absolute simplicity of the man to my right. That’s when I had a conversation which changed my life. The plane took off.

I realized in that moment that even the most fleeting interactions with people who may not matter, matter. Like a German friend once said, “The kindness in a Canadian’s tone is the warmest in the world.” So Happy 4th of July. Be kind. Even to strangers.

When the Prophet Muhammad (sa) took the census of Muslims in Medina, he said “Write down for me whoever says by his mouth that he is a Muslim.” On that day - not one edict of Kufr was handed out. #AhmadisAreMuslims

“And in the end, it was a man in a suit, perfectly pressed, a face, perfectly shaven, with hair, perfectly combed, shoes, perfectly polished, and an ego, perfectly roused, that ended the world.” - History books 100 years later, probably. #WW3 #war

Try tasting the water that cascades in all its aquamarine glory down a #Jasper mountain after the tap water elsewhere. Try going to any other place in the world where people will smile back, say please and thank you, or “surry” as much as a #Canadian will. #CanadaDay2020
