Majlis Khuddam-ul-Ahmadiyya Canada undertook a wide range of tabligh and humanitarian initiatives during December 2025.
Attention shifted towards spiritual revival through the commencement of the “Fajr40 Campaign”, which continued until mid-January 2026. The campaign encouraged members to offer Fajr prayer in congregation at their local mosques or Salat Centres for 40 consecutive days. Despite early mornings and challenging winter conditions across Canada, participation remained steady throughout the country. The daily average number of khuddam offering prayer in congregation reached 1,065 on weekends and 550 on weekdays. The campaign served as a practical means of instilling consistency in congregational worship and reinforced the importance of beginning the day with prayer.
Humanitarian service under the department of Khidmat-e-Khalq remained a focus of khuddam activities during December 2025. A nationwide food drive resulted in the collection of over 200,000 pounds of food, which was distributed to local food banks and community organisations. In addition, members across multiple regions organised “Meals on Wheels” initiatives to support the homeless. Two blood drives were also held during this period, further contributing to the welfare of the wider community.
In relation to tabligh, an outreach trip to Northern Ontario was organised in early December. A team travelled from Vaughan (home to the Baitul Islam Mosque) to various cities. Their itinerary included public information stalls, flyer distribution, open houses and direct conversations with members of the public. Close to 400 flyers were distributed and meaningful discussions were held with over 40 individuals. The outreach efforts also included constructive interfaith engagement. In Thunder Bay, members held a detailed discussion with a Lutheran Christian pastor, marked by respectful exchange and openness to further reflection.
“The True Story of Jesusas” campaign also witnessed notable progress during this period. Media outlets in Northern Ontario expressed interest in the exhibition, resulting in coverage across 10 local newspapers, significantly extending the reach and the audience of the campaign. The “Join Islam” campaign saw 231 members actively engaged in inviting others towards Allah.The Department of Ishaat conducted a subscription campaign for The Review of Religions. Furthermore, two editions of MKA Canada’s monthly publication, An-Nida, were published during November and December 2025, along with a special “Year-in-Review” edition.
