But for me, for the nearly 2 billion Muslims in this world, and especially for the members of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama’at, it is true.

When Dickens was writing, the Christmas spirit could be defined simply by giving to those in need or by simple acts of kindness. Nowadays, however, the centre of the festive season has shifted to a focus on material possessions and is all too often accompanied by vast amounts of waste and debt.

This month YouGov, one of the most renowned and highly influential British international Internet-based market research and data analytics firm, published the results of their latest survey around Christianity in Britain.

November 1st and 2nd mark Dia de los Muertos, (Day of the Dead) a day in which those who have died are remembered with one peculiar particularity – instead of meditative mourning, they are commemorated by mirth and merriment.

‘I cannot believe in what I do not see.’ Perhaps 1000 years ago, this phenomenally flawed case against the existence of God might have passed as tenable.

In our developed countries, one can infer that death is so far removed from our mores that it is barely understandable.
