A Review of the Pakistani Government’s “White Paper”: Qadiyaniyyat—A Grave Threat to Islam [ 21 ] though we do not call this our central Convention, people the devotees of Ahmadiyyat have travelled from far and wide to attend by spending lot of money and facing lot of hardship and difficulties. This is a unique moment in the history of the UK which will not be repeated. The faces you see today, you may not see them again. I hope that insh a ’All a h you will come to the next Jalsah Salanah in Rabwah, as you did before. Do enjoy these new faces and company moments, but do not forget your brethren in Pakistan. Pray for them from the bottom of your heart. They are in great pain, sorrow, and difficulties. These days of separation have turned into long nights, and it is difficult for them to bear this. Instructions for those Hosting the Jalsah Salanah At this Jalsah Salanah people have come from far and wide, experiencing considerable expense and difficulties. Some poor people who had never left their villages before are here as well. Although the UK Jam a ‘at is aware of its responsibilities and duties, it is my responsibility to remind them to be kind and friendly to their guests, to attend to their needs and comfort as best as they can, and to always do this for the sake of God. These people are here today as a sign of the truth of Ahmadiyyat. You must all pray that they remain safe and sound here and go back home safely carry- ing countless blessings with them.
