Why is it important?

This article is my attempt to highlight the saga of the persecuted community in Pakistan. The community have contributed in the development of Pakistan, however, some politicians used religious card to segregate the Ahmadis to survive in politics in Pakistan. This article finds that the persecuted community is peaceful and is flourishing because of its principles outlined by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad whom Ahmadis believe is the Promised Messiah.

Perspectives

I enjoyed a lot while studying the saga of Ahmadis across the globe. This article respond the false narratives shared by scores of people regarding Ahmadis in Indian sub-continent. Also, it is vital in research to use primary sources to validate the hypothesis of your study. I trust this article might be interesting for readers.
