Imtiaz Ahmed is an imamandmissionary at the Cumberland Ahmadiyya Mosque. Ahmadiyya is a Muslim reformist move- ment that started with its founder Mirza GhulamAhmad in 1889, who they believe to be a messiah. The Ahmadiyya mosque is frequented bymembers of the Prescott- Russell Muslim community. In the wake of the terrorist attack in Quebec, Imtiaz Ahmed has amessage of peace and hope for his community and Canadians as a whole. The Ahmadiyya sect of Islam wants to reform the religion with amessage of peace and understanding. They are even trying to rebrand the word Jihad, which in the last couple of decades, had a negative connota- tion. “There is one verse in the Holy Quran that states that Muslims have the right to defend their sect. But we take that verse in a historical context whereMohammed had to take up arms after traveling for 13 years. But today, everybody, at least in Canada, is free to exercise their fate. So the meaning, the violent meaning of Jihad, is not relevant to this day and age. For us Jihad is not about violence but about struggle. The struggle to become a better human being and overcome life’s challenges” explained Mr Ahmed. The Ahmadiyyah sect is profoundly paci- fist and promotes understanding through the educational programs for both the Muslim community and the community as a whole.
