Had the opportunity to have chat with Lucy Hockings on
@BBCNews
this afternoon about what
#EidUlFitr
means to millions of Muslims across the world amidst the current conflict in Gaza.
Last night was such a blessing & I'm truly grateful to God for making this all happen.
Alhamdulillah, I just hope & pray that moving forward God creates more opportunities for me to continue to serve my community and humanity. Inshallah.
Big thank you to
@VisionaryArtsUK

Why is it that the
#ISIS
#caliphate
, thousands of miles away, promoting hatred and violence gets more media attention; compared to the Caliphate, right here in
#London
, which promotes nothing but mercy and compassion?

#Ahmadiyya
Alhamdulillah. All praise to God
I’m shocked and humbled that I’ve had been nominated for an award by

If you get a moment pop me a vote and thank you all for the support.

Digging up a grave of a 3 day old baby in
#Bangladesh
and leaving the body on the street bc you think Ahmadis are not Muslims is disgraceful! How much more inhumane can you get! How can you justify your actions! Worry about yourself and leave Ahmadis alone.

Today marks one year of the passing of our dear brother Syed Taalay Ahmad.
You were described as a diamond by Huzoor and were a role model for us all through your actions and loyalty to Khilafat. You will always be in our prayers. Love you. 🤍
Alhamdulillah. All praise to God!
I'm shocked and humbled that I've had been nominated for an award by

Today I had the opportunity to have a chat with the final year students, from seminary where I graduated from, about my journey navigating through the world of social media & being an Imam on Instagram.
I felt honoured to go back to my roots, where it all began! It was special.

Following the successful Baitul Futuh Mosque tours held during Ramadan, I would like to send an invitation to anyone who is interested in visiting Britain's Largest Mosque in SW London for a tour. If you missed out previously then we are reopening our doors once again.🕌
Alhamdulillah. All praise to God!
I’m shocked and humbled that I’ve been nominated for an award by

Probably the most unprepared I’ve ever been in my life! 😂 It was such a great evening
@BAFTA
last night and getting an award was just mindblowing. Tysm
@VisionaryArtsUK
If anyone would like to come for a Mosque tour at Britain's biggest Mosque (and a meal) then get in touch 🕌
We live in an age where we should be building bridges between people, finding our common denominators and growing together as one harmonious community😊

about the

Question: Why when Muslim women wore
#facecoverings
they were called letter boxes and bank robbers, but now we are all wearing them we are none of the above?
I’m making this plain and clear that as a Muslim I will never physically or verbally abuse any member of the Jewish community. I don’t have words to describe the absolute tragic state of the world right now but violence is not the answer.
I’m not anti-Semitic because I condemn the actions of Isra3l and how they are completely out of order for the bombardment of attacks they are doing on P*lestine.
As a Muslim faith leader, an Imam — I’m trying to highlight and call for absolute justice in light of the..
I spoke to
@BBCLondonNews
today and said that there is no excuse for any violence or extremism. It is completely unjustifiable and inexcusable.
The violence reflects a strong undercurrent of far right extremism, in a minority of people, that feeds off Islamophobia and racism.
"I use my platform to create peace"
It was great to be interviewed by
@theweekjunior
to talk about Ramadan, my work as an Imam and my presence on social media.📱
Having the opportunity to chat with
@bianca_nobilo
for
@CNN
was great! We talked about the King’s coronation and why celebrating this special event at Britain’s largest mosque is important for so many Muslims all over the world.
After listening to the final speech of my Caliph it’s reinforced the point that there is no one else on this planet who cares more about the peace of the world than Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad (aba) the fifth Caliph of the Ahmadiyya Muslim community.

Today, after reading my comments in an article for the
#BBC
, someone thought it was 'OKAY' to slide into my DM's on Insta and tell me that I am
#hijacking
their religion and then told me not to call myself a
#Muslim
. Sorry but who said you can tell me what I should call myself?
I’ve just lost my childhood friend to
#Covid
. He was 28, he was a gentle giant, he was loving, caring and one of those people who always carried a smile.
Covid is real, please stay safe and I pray that Allah grants him a special place in paradise.
I had a fantastic evening at a synagogue in London where we all came together as a community for a big Iftar. It was a night to remember and a true display of Interfaith dialogue, love & community.
I had the opportunity to sit and learn more about the Torah and its writings.
I was driving to work this morning thinking about Taalay. A journalist,a life devotee to the community and a role model for young Muslims striving to better themselves spiritually. He was a gem and left behind qualities which I can learn from. He is loved and missed very dearly.

@KSI
we need to talk, not fight.
I’m inviting you the Britain’s largest mosque to come and learn about life as a South Asian Muslim. I want to learn about your lived experiences and you can learn about mine.
Let’s build bridges and understand boundaries and respect.
Only a few days left until the whole debate of the
#moonsighting
and 'what day is
#EidAtHome
actually going to be on'. All I'm saying is I'm so grateful and feel blessed that we have a

If you get a second please drop me a vote. I’d be humbled!💙
What an amazing blessing to be one of the finalist for ‘community unsung hero award’ by
@mbccawards
. A big thank you again to everyone that voted to get me here, truly a blessing.
I didn’t win last night but it was a great opportunity to be surrounded by such amazing people.
I would love to sit with the far right, have food with them, show them around my mosque and address the questions and issues they have with Islam because what they are doing right now is based on misconceptions and misinformation.
Hear what one of Britain's youngest imams has to say about Islamophobia, radicalisation, deciding to dedicate his life to religion aged 17, and taking his outreach to social media 📱

Don’t be scared of raising your voice for the loss of innocent life. Don’t be scared of losing followers or opportunities. Stand for justice. God creates opportunities.

I had the honour to host an iftari for some of the
@UKTV
crew at Baitul Futuh.
What made it even more special was that morning we had a zoom at 4:15am, as they all decided to keep a fast. It was very special opening the fast together and hearing everyone’s experience of it.
Speaking to the
@The_NewArab
this afternoon was important because we talked about how despite Muslims being targeted across the country, they are still proud to be practice their faith and dress in their religious attire.
With the inauguration done Alhamdulillah, all tea’d out and even got a snap on the buggy, today is the start of the amazing

It’s the first time I’ve ever done this and it was AMAZING! It was a pleasure to be with over 70 people yesterday from
@SurreyPolice
who took part in this years
#ramadan
fasting challenge. We had a virtual Suhoor and Iftar and dropped off food packages to those who took part! ☪️
It was a pleasure to be on an interfaith panel hosted by
@uktv
with Rabbi Igor Zinkov and Pastor Samson Baptist.
Interfaith dialogue is so important, especially during this blessed month, where Easter, Passover & Ramadan are observed.
My latest interview with
@BBCPoliticsLDN
talking about the government’s plan to spend £117 million on protecting mosques. I do feel however that what’s more important is to bring communities together to have open conversation and dialogue to remove the hatred between people.
Don’t make people feel like strangers if you see them come to the mosque after a long time. Treat them like you saw them ystday.They might have been struggling with something or not had the courage to come back to God’s house. Be that person to make them feel like they never left
Alhamdulillah had a great day 1 yesterday at

I had the opportunity today to host Bishop Paul at the Baitul Futuh mosque today.🕌
It was a great chance for us to talk about the things we have in common, the importance of community and the need for more interfaith events like these. Can’t wait to do it again! Alhamdulillah.
