'C 'C t'O ""') I TAHRIK-E-JADID - USA In 1934, Hadlzrat Kilalifatul Masih II, (RA), introduced a scheme called Tahrik-e-Jadid (literal meaning the New Scheme) for the propagation of Islam and Ahmadiyyat through- out the world for the spiritual transformation and training of Ahmadis to become model Muslims in practice. There are twenty five demands of Tehrik-e-Jadid which in essence call for all Ahmadis to live a simple life and focus on their lives for the propagation and spread of Islam. A part of the sacrifices demanded under Tehrik-e-Jadid, of course, is the financial sacrifice. Without the funds, it was not possible to send missionaries overseas, print the Holy Qur'an in various languages and print books for presenting the beautiful religion of Islam to the world. In 1996-97, the Amir Jama'at USA, Sahibzada Mirza Muzaffar Ahmad, decided that we should try to become number one in the world in Tahrik-e-Jadid collections. By the Grace of Allah, the Ahmadiyya Jama'at USA responded to their Amir's call in an exceptionally sacrificing manner. The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community of the United States stood sec- ond in the entire world in 1996-97 and took the first position in 1997-1998. May Almighty Allah be praised for this honor and may He grant the USA Jamaat further opportunities to sacrifice in His cause.
