The Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) said that man should seek prayers all the time and in every situation and should adhere to: 'And as for the bounty of your Lord do relate it to others.' (93:12) This increases love of God and enhances passion to be obedient and loyal to God. Hazrat Khalifatul Masih said that during his trips abroad God's bounties increase manifold. With His grace God blesses the programmes and the true message of Islam reaches a large number of people impressing them along the way. The main purpose of Huzoor's recent German tour was to grace the German Jalsa Salana, however many programmes took place through which true Islam was introduced to others. When God's bounties are granted beyond one's efforts and prayers it becomes that much more essential to relate them. The way Jalsa Salana Germany and other programmes were blessed by God taking the message of Islam Ahmadiyyat to a vast number of people draws attention to relate those blessings. German Jama'at should in particular be most grateful to God in this regard and turn to Him more than ever. It is not possible to reach hearts and minds without God's grace. At times even dynamic speeches cannot have the needed affect while things said in simple words make a mark. Guests at Jalsa and other programmes were most impressed by the proceedings and general atmosphere. Many guests attended Jalsa from eastern and western European countries as did many non-Ahmadi Muslims. Guests came from many countries including Macedonia, Croatia, Slovenia, Latvia, Belgium, Italy, Spain etc. Ahmadis of various ethnicities residing in Germany also came and met Huzoor. Sixteen guests came from Albania and two of them took Bai'at. One Ahmadi came with his wife, both are legal professionals. The wife had not taken Bai'at although her husband had done Tabligh to her. She took Bai'at at Jalsa and said that she found the experience of attending Jalsa most extraordinary. She said she knew of the beauties of Islam through her husband's Tabligh but accepted it with absolute conviction at Jalsa during meeting with Huzoor. She wept with emotion throughout in spite of her relative youth. Another guest from Albania also announced during meeting that he accepted Ahmadiyyat with full conviction. A guest from Kosovo said he had attended last year's Jalsa as well but found this year the organisation and arrangements to be distinctively better. Sixty two guests came from Macedonia; fourteen were Christian and thirty seven non Ahmadi Muslims. They travelled thirty six hours to get to Jalsa. The group included two journalists who recorded Jalsa on camera and said they would broadcast it on TV on their return home. One guest said he was taking great memories of Jalsa with him adding that even developed countries could not organise an event like Jalsa. Another guest said it was the first time in his life that he had met so many good people. He was most impressed by the message of Islam and said that Ahmadis put in practice all that the banners at Jalsa proclaimed. A journalist guest from Macedonia said that he had been around the world as a journalist but had found Jalsa programme to be excellent. He was impressed by the general air of tolerance and brotherhood of man he experienced at Jalsa. Another guest said it was his first time at Jalsa and he heard all the addresses. He had no idea there was such a community in Islam. He now had knowledge as well as experience of Ahmadiyyat and felt as he was part of the Jama'at. Another guest said he would reflect on whatever he had listened to during Jalsa as regards the difference between Ahmadis and other Muslims. He suggested that Jama'at should send missionaries wherever it did not have any. Another guest said he was intimately introduced to Muslims for the first time at Jalsa and he listened to the addresses informing him about Islam. A guest from Bosnia said he did not have a very stron
