Thousands of people are in Bradford this weekend for Canada's largest Muslim convention to gain a sense of community, spirituality and peace.
The annual convention ('Jalsa Salana' in Urdu) has been taking place in Ahmadiyya Muslim communities worldwide and has grown exponentially in Canada.
Among those community members in attendance was Mr. Lal Khan Malik, the Vaughan-based president of Ahmadiyya Jama'at Canada.
"The Holy Qur'an, the holy book of Muslims, has all the guidance for humankind," said Malik. "We are emphasizing various aspects of it and how the Qur'an guides us in our daily lives."
Community, prayer and spirit were among the themes of the weekend convention.
Friday afternoon, Malik and the thousands in attendance held a prayer for peace in light of the conflict in the Middle East.
