  Ahmadiyya
Yesterday I joined an "interreligious" talk and learned about the Ahmadiyya group, a group of Muslims whose beliefs differ from those of mainstream Muslims and who therefore are persecuted in the Muslim world, particularly in Pakistan and Bangladesh.

The Ahmadiyya movement is split into the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community and the Lahore Ahmadiyya Movement.

Mohammad Ali of the Lahore Ahmadiyya community in Berlin held a talk about his community and their beliefs. The most arguable point is the death of Jesus, the Ahmadis believe that he died like all other humans and was not physically lifted to heaven by God.

Most interesting about this meeting was the reactions of the audience. Most of the mainly Muslim listeners didn't seem to be too happy about these ideas.
