The Promised Revival -- To Bring Faith Back Even If It Had Gone To Pleiades (i.e. weakened).

Peace be on you…..On June 2, 2014, Fifth Ahmadiyya Khalifa (may Allah be his Helper) started the journey from London. There were many faithful who were present outside his residence to say him farewell. Holy Khalifah lead the silent prayer. The convoy of cars went to the Channel Tunnel, which is 11 mile prior to the city of Dover. The Tunnel connects UK and France from under the sea. At the Tunnel, after the immigration procedure, cars were parked in a 2-storey train. The train travelled for 35 minutes, at 140 km/h and reached to the French city of Calais.

Germany’s Ahmadiyya Muslim Amir and Missionary In-charge and other faithful welcomed the Holy Khalifah (a.t.) and after food and offering Salaat, the convoy travelled for 31 kilometers to cross the French border and entered into Belgium. Then after a journey of 308 kilometer more, the convoy entered in Germany. After travelling of further 265 kilometers, Holy Khalifah’s convoy reached to the centre of Jama'at Ahmadiyya Germany, Bait-us- Subbuh Frankfurt. He was very warmly welcomed by orderly and separately standing in rows men, women and children of Jama'at. Children, wearing dresses of same colour, were reciting welcome and prayerful poems. Faithful were raising and waving hands with intense love and emotions, they were saying slogans. Local Ahmadiyya administration welcomed Huzur (a.t.). Faithful individual and families had come from as far as 500 kilometers. Huzur (a.t.) walked through and raised his hand and said ‘Assalamo Alaikum’ [peace be on you] and went to his residence. Some times latter, he came back to lead the Salaat. All the halls were full of faithful. Some of them were seeing their beloved Khalifah for the first time and they were thankful to Allah the Exalted.

On June 3, 2014, after the leading the regular Prayers and office work, Holy Khalifah (a.t.) graced 25 families (90 persons) and 50 individuals with his meeting. Everyone had picture taken with their Imam. He granted pens to student children and chocolate to younger ones. Families had come from 51 cities of Germany.

There was a ceremony of “Ameen” [i.e. the occasion when children complete the first recitation of Holy Quran]. Huzur (a.t.) asked each of 25 children, boys and girls, to recite one verse of Holy Quran, then he lead the silent prayer [prayer with hands are jointly raised in front of face].

After offering Salaat, Huzur (a.t.) lead the funeral-Prayer of an indigenous German Ahmadiyya Muslim, Mr. Musa Peter Flechtner. He served Jama'at at various locations and remained steadfast.

Then Huzur (a.t.) conducted official meeting with an assistant.

In the evening session, 38 families (150 people) and 55 individuals met with Huzur (a.t.). Pens were granted to student children and chocolate to younger ones. Pictures with Huzur (a.t.) were taken.

Many of those who met with Huzur (a.t.) in the morning and evening were those who suffered persecution at the hands of their own country fellows and they had to leave their homes and found refuge in Germany. When they met with their spiritual Imam first time in life, they were overwhelmed with passions. They felt calm and blessed today. Their eyes were tearful. There were happy.

Again there was “Ameen” ceremony. Huzur (a.t.) listened one verse from each of 26 children. At the end he lead prayer.

At 9.45 pm Salaat were offered. Huzur (a.t.) went to his residence.

Pens were granted to student children and chocolate to younger one. Photos were taken. In “Ameen” ceremony of 25 children, who learned recitation of Holy Quran, prayer was done by Huzur (a.t.).

At 6 pm, Huzur (a.t.) left for Wiesbaden city, which is 46 kilometer from Frankfurt, for laying foundation stone of Mubarak Mosque. A Police car escorted convoy of Huzur (a.t.) to Wiesbaden. Journey was one hour long. Faithful greeted their beloved Imam with prayerful slogans and emotions. The children were waving flags of Jama'at Ahmadiyya and Germany. Local Amir and Regional Missionary welcomed Huzur (a.t.). The Lord Mayor of Wiesbaden and other officials were present and shook hand with Huzur (a.t.).
