Zohran Mamdani’s victory speech was powerful, emotional, and full of purpose. This man knows what to say and when to say it — his words touch hearts and awaken hope. When he asked New York to breathe in that moment because the city had been reborn.

History made: Zohran Mamdani is New York City’s next mayor.
He has shattered barriers as the first Muslim, first South Asian, and first immigrant in nearly 140 years to hold this office.
A milestone not just for NYC—but for every community long underrepresented in leadership.

History was made in Virginia tonight. Abigail Spanberger will be the first woman governor after 74 consecutive male governors, while Ghazala Hashmi becomes the first Muslim-American woman elected lieutenant governor. Two historic victories.

Today, the Minara-tul-Masih was inaugurated in New York by the National President of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community USA.
As I watched, I thought of those minarets of Ahmadis’ mosques being torn down in my homeland.
May Pakistan one day uphold the freedom Islam truly safeguards.

Veteran Indian actor Asrani passes away. Grew up watching him in every other film; that voice, those expressions, that perfect comic timing. An entire era of laughter & innocence gone with him. Some actors don’t just entertain, they become part of your childhood. Rest in peace.

TLP terrorists attack another Ahmadi place of worship in Karachi, blocking Ahmadis from offering Jumma prayers.
While Ramadan unites the world in faith and compassion, Pakistan’s state & mullahs spend it hunting Ahmadis, making their already miserable lives even worse. Shame.

Salman Taseer remains the only politician who stood against blasphemy laws, defending the marginalized at great personal cost.
Today, we see none willing to follow his path. Instead, many thrive on selling religious bigotry & fanning the flames of division.

While the world reaches for the stars & India soars in economy & science, Pakistan's latest 'achievement' is exhuming an Ahmadi from his grave in Rawalpindi.
Religious minorities endure persecution & violence every day. This is the 'progress' of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

The persecution of Ahmadis continues.

Heartbreaking news from Rawalpindi: Tayyab Ahmad, a 40 year old Ahmadi, was brutally murdered with an axe due to his faith.
In the land of the pure, Ahmadis are not even second-class citizens. They are victims of state-sponsored persecution. How can justice be hoped for?
