# Ahmadiyya Muslim Community UK
The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community UK is the British branch of a worldwide Islamic revival movement founded in India in 1889. Based in London, the organisation serves Muslims and the broader public through religious leadership, community engagement and interfaith initiatives.
Led by His Holiness Mirza Masroor Ahmad, the community promotes what they term "Love For All Hatred For None"—a philosophy centred on peace, religious harmony and social cohesion. They trace their spiritual lineage to Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, whom they recognise as the Promised Messiah.
The organisation distinguishes itself through active peacebuilding efforts and community outreach. Rather than isolating from mainstream British society, the Ahmadiyya Community engages in inter-religious dialogue, hosts peace symposiums and organises community events bringing together residents of different backgrounds. Their work includes supporting vulnerable populations—they've established cooking resource initiatives to help families struggling with food costs during economic hardship.
The community also operates religious and educational programmes, maintains published collections of teachings on world peace, and preserves Islamic heritage through initiatives like heritage plaques marking historical mosque sites in London. They've established the first purpose-built mosque in London, which remains significant to their British presence.
The organisation is explicit about their distinct identity, issuing statements clarifying their separation from unaffiliated groups claiming similar names. This reflects their commitment to authentic representation of Ahmadiyya teachings and leadership under their established ecclesiastical authority.
