Ahmadis from Australia have donated an additional Rs 2.8 million to Pakistan’s dam fund. Previously a donation of Rs 1.9 million was made to the same fund by American Ahmadis.

Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Australia made the contribution after Pakistan’s newly elected Prime Minister Imran Khan made a plea for funds. President of Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Australia, Imam Inamul Haq Kauser presented the donation check to Pakistan’s Defense Advisor to Australia, Brigadier Muhammad Asim Khan and Counsellor Aamer Ahmed Atozai.

The donation comes at a time when hate against Ahmadis appears to be on the rise in the the Islamic country.
