The Words of Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad

The Promised Messiah and Imam Mahdi

Purpose of Jalsa Salana

The primary purpose of this Convention is to enable every sincere
individual to personally experience religious benefits; They may
enhance their knowledge and due to their being blessed and
enabled by Allah, the Exalted their perception (of Allah) may
progress. Among its secondary benefits is that this congregational

Not an Ordinary Convention

The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, under the leadership of its
holy founder, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad as, held its first convention on December 27, 1891 in Qadian, India. Approximately 75
people attended the event. For over a century since then, the
Community has held its Annual Convention, or Jalsa Salana, in
numerous countries around the world. Tens of thousands of
Community members gather at these conventions at various times
throughout the year. The principle aims of the Annual Convention
are to facilitate greater spiritual awareness among Community
members, strengthen ties, and promote peace. Hazrat Mirza
Ghulam Ahmad as, emphasized the vital importance of the Annual
Convention: You must not rank this convention in the same league
as other ordinary human assemblies.
