In Historic City Of Zion
The Fifth Caliph of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad inaugurated first Mosque in the city where a grand sign of the truth of Islam and of the Promised Messiah Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (peace be upon him) came to pass over a century ago.
His Holiness inaugurated the Fath-e-Azeem Mosque (The Great Victory) with his weekly Friday Sermon of 30 September 2022.
The city of Zion was founded in 1900 by John Alexander Dowie, who defamed the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and called for the destruction and elimination of all Muslims. After attempts to persuade Mr Dowie to depart from the path of religious hatred failed, Founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad – the Promised Messiah (peace be upon him) foretold that Dowie, despite him being almost 12 years younger than him and despite being at the peak of his powers, would die during the lifetime of the Promised Messiah (peace be upon him) as a sign from God of the victory of Islam. The prophecy was fulfilled to the letter on March 9, 1907, when John Alexander Dowie passed away.
As His Holiness inaugurated the first Mosque of Zion, the sign of the truth of the Founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community and the glory of Islam shone forth with a new light at the hand of the Present Head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad.
