"Muslims for Peace" present message
Baitul Hameed Mosque, in Chino, and the Ahmadiyya Music Community, in Chino brought a message of Muslims for peace to Upland Fire Station on Wednesday.
The 'Muslims for Peace' pamphlets were distributed at a Saturday event sponsored by Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). The event was attended by over 2000 Muslims from all over Southern California, where Imam Shamshad joined by two Ahmadi members were in attendance.
At the interfaith event held at a fire station in Upland, some 200 participants representing various faiths were present at the morning breakfast and seven Ahmadi
Muslim members with Imam Shamshad also joined.
The Upland Interfaith Council (UIC), that Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is a member of, had arranged its 15th annual 'Prayer Breakfast' at the same location as the last year - the Fire Station No. 1, located at the corner of Arrow Highway and 2nd Street in Upland, California.
Imam Shamshad Nasir, the Regional Missionary of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, began the event with opening prayers.
With several dignitaries from Upland city government and the president of the UIC at the head table, prayer meeting opened when Imam Shamshad Nasir recited the opening chapter from the Muslim Holy Scriptures, the Holy Quran.

Cair hosting a "peace event" is as disingenuous as the KKK hosting a Martin Luther King Day celebration.
I understand media ignorance of Islam, but the Ahmadiyya?
CAIR is a front for the Muslim Brotherhood in America and an unindicted co-conspirator in a federal terrorism funding trial. As such, they represent (falsely, to us) traditional, historical, mainstream, Qur'anic Islam.
Traditional Islam views the Ahmadiyya as apostates deserving of persecution and death.
(Either that, or these Ahmadiyya are reverting.)
