Following the recent horrific attack on Asad Shah for his membership of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community we would urge the government to investigate the organisation Khatme Nabuwat, who, on hearing of the death of Asad Shah, sent out a tweet congratulating it's members here in the UK.
Khatme Nabuwat's sole purpose is the annihilation of the Ahmadiyya Community, who they refer to with derogatory language as 'Qadiyani cult'. Their website features fabrications about the community and their preachers say that Ahmadis are 'Wajib ul Qatl' - worthy of death.
There has been long-running propaganda by Khatme Nabuwat in the UK against the Ahmadiyya. Asad Shah was a member of this pacifist Muslim sect who have been long-term contributors to British society.
In Pakistan, Khatme Nabuwat has been directly implicated in inciting violence that has led to the murder of Ahmadis and they have published pamphlets here inciting violence against Ahmadis, as well as calling for boycotts against Ahmadi businesses and social ostracisation of Ahmadis.
We believe there is no place for Muslim sectarianism in the UK and organisations that preach hatred against Ahmadis or others are not practicing free speech, they are indulging in hate speech. We urge that Khatme Nabuwat and other hate preachers who target Ahmadis are investigated and shut down, so that Asad Shah's death is not in vain.
