[edit]
Ahmadi Mosque in Haifa

Kababir - a neighborhood that was formerly an Arab village. Kababir is the only settlement in Israel whose residents come from the Ahmadiyya sect of Islam. Its founder, an Indian Muslim, arrived at the village and persuaded its inhabitants to join the sect. According to the theology of the sect, holy war in the name of Islam (jihad) must only be carried out by means of preaching and pleasantness and not by force of a sword. Kababir is the only place in the country where members of the Ahmadiyya sect reside. … The "Centre for the Ahmadiyyan Delegation to Countries of the Middle East" is also situated in the village. The village mosque, which was built in Kababir in the late 1970's, stands out in particular and it is a unique structure composed of two towers.

How to get there: bus no 34 from the Carmel Centre.

This does not complete the city’s religious mosaic. Israel’s only Ahmadi Muslim community is based in Haifa’s Kababir neighborhood. Ahmadiyyat is a sect of Islam, founded in the late nineteenth century, which promotes peace among nations and opposes religious coercion. Their large mosque houses a prayer hall and a first-floor exhibit of their history and significant contributions.

Ahmadis believe that the promised messiah has come. In Pakistan, Ahmadis have been officially declared as non-Muslims by so called democratic assembly for their belief. The Headquarters of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in Isreal is in Haifa. The pictures on the right are from Mahmoud mosque Kababir in Haifa.

However, Haifa’s attractions, as well as its uniqueness as the city-of-all-religions, do not end with the hanging gardens.

The neighborhood of Cabbabir may surprise you. Together with the Jewish community, the neighborhood is home to the families of the only Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in Israel.

Just by its impressive twin-towered Mosque, which is seen from afar, lies the center of the Ahmadiyya Movement in the Middle East


The movement was founded in India at the end of the 19th century. It is a Muslim religious movement and its followers are known as Ahmadis. The movement preaches for universal brotherhood and rejects the concept of “Jihad” (the “Holy Struggle”) through sword. According to their beliefs this is the time for "Jihad" through pen.

As part of its activities, the movement is working on a translation of the Qur’an to over 100 languages. The Ahmadis welcome guests in the offices near the mosque and are glad to talk about their faith and traditions. Among the other experiences, one can get a copy of selected Qur’an Suras translated to Yiddish…

Al-Hafeez (Anti-Ahmadiyya): Ahmadis in Israel

[edit]

Kababeer, a small town on Mount Karmel in Haifa, in Israel, is the center of Ahmadiyya activities inside Israel. Established in 1928, 99% of the residents of this town belong to Ahmadiyya creed, whose ancestor, Mr. Abdul Qadir Odeh, was the first Palestinian to embrace Ahmadiyyat at the hand of an Ahmadiyya Missionary from India, Jalaluddin Shams, under the fact that Mirza Ghulam is a reformer and a Mujaddid in Islam.

Our Foreign Missions vide

[edit]

As far as spreading the true message of Islam and explaining the true status of Holy Prophet (S.A.W) being Khatam-un-Nabiyeen (Seal of All Prophets) is concerned, Mirza Mubarak Ahmad, grandson of the Promised Messiah (A.S.) wrote in his book OUR FOREIGN MISSIONS VIDE PP. 79-80 in the following words:

“The Ahmadiyya mission in Israel is situated in Haifa at Mount Karmal. We have a mosque there, a mission house, a library, a book depot and a school. The mission also brings out a montly, entitled AL-BUSHRA, which is sent out to thirty different countries accessible though medium of Arabic. Many works of the promised Messiah have been translated into Arabic through this mission. In many ways this Ahmadiyya mission has been deeply affected by the partition by the muslims. The small number of Muslims left in Israel derives a great deal of strength from the presence of our mission, which never misses a chance of being of service to them. Some time ago, our missionary had an interview with the Mayor of Haifa, when during the discussion on many points, he offered to build for us a school at Kababeer, a village near Haifa, where we have a strong and well established Ahmadiyya community of Palestinian Arabs. He also promised that he would come to see your missionary at Kababeer, which he did later, accompanied by four notables from Haifa. He was duly received by members of community and by the students of our school, a meeting having been held to welcome the guests. Before his return he entered his impressions in the Visitors� Book Another small incident, which would give readers some idea of the position our mission in Israel occupies, is that in 1956 when our missionary, choudhry Muhammad Sharif, returned to the headquarters of the Movement of Pakistan, the president of Israel sent word that he (our missionary) should see him before embarking on the journey back, Choudhry Muhammad Sharif utilized the opportunity to present a copy of the German translation of the HOLY QURRAN to the President, which he gladly accepted. This interview and what transpired at it was widely reported in the Israeli Press, and a brief account was also broadcast on the radio.”

The Mufti of Jerusalem and Palestine condemned the desecration of the Hassan Bek Mosque in Haifa city.

Last Friday, a group of Jewish terrorists threw a pig's head, wrapped in a red and a black keffiyeh with the word Mohammed on it, outside the mosque.

Sheikh Ekrema Sabri described the attack as "shameful", and called for an end to such horrible acts, stressing that all heavenly religions forbid attacks against holy sites.

He also said that the attack wasn't the first of its kind on the Hassan Bek Mosque, and called on Muslim residents to defend Islamic holy shrines in the occupied territories.

Two Hamas leaders detained in Israeli jails also denounced the attack on the mosque.

Sheikh Ra'fat Nassif said that the desecration showed the racist motives of those Jewish terrorists and their disrespect of all religious values.

He also said that Israeli occupation authorities "deliberately overlook such acts, which confirm their collusion with those extremists."

The other detained leader, Sheikh Adnan Asfour, said that the "sinful" attack was the latest in a series of Jewish aggression on Islamic holy sites in Israel.

He also pointed out that Israeli occupation forces, in their frequent incursions into the occupied territories, don't respect mosques or churches.


The Haifa Foundation

[edit]

Haifa is Israel's third largest city, the capital of northern Israel and gateway to the Galilee, and home to over a quarter of a million residents. Its outstanding record of coexistence among its diverse population of Jews, Christians, Muslims, Bahá'is, Druze and Ahmadis is a model of cultural and religious pluralism and harmony.
