Farrukh Shabbir Lodhi, Missionary, Liberia
A cycling club was established in February 2025 under the Sehat-e-Jismani Department of Majlis Ansarullah Liberia, with the motto “Pedal for Peace.”
On 16 February 2025, the first-ever cycling trip was conducted under this club. Prior to the journey, members prepared their bicycles with great enthusiasm, practicing daily and sharpening their skills. As per the programme, members gathered from various areas of the capital, Monrovia, and arrived at the Bait-ul-Mujib Mosque. At 10 am, Amir Jamaat Liberia, Naveed Ahmad Adil Sahib, led the silent prayer and members embarked on their inaugural trip, led by Dr Abdul Haleem Sahib, Sadr Majlis Ansarullah Liberia.
The cyclists covered the city’s prominent roads, including Lynch Street, Sinkor, Duport Road, New Georgia, Jamaica Road and Tweh Farm. They completed the trip, returning to the mission house at 4 pm. Along the way, arrangements were made for the members to offer Zuhr and Asr prayers at the LPRC centre. Throughout this inspiring trip, a total of 20 members successfully covered nearly 65 kilometres and distributed 950 pamphlets.
