Leading British politicians have condemned Pakistan following a terrorist attack on the Bait-ul-Mahdi Mosque in Rabwah that left six members of the Ahmadi Muslim community injured, two critically, reports 24brussels.
The attack occurred during Friday prayers, reigniting concerns over Pakistan’s longstanding intolerance toward religious minorities. Helen Maguire, the Liberal Democrat MP for Epsom and Ewell, described the incident as “the tragic outcome of years of state-endorsed hatred against Ahmadi Muslims.” She called for the Pakistani government to guarantee the right to freedom of belief, stating, “We must see genuine action from the Government of Pakistan to safeguard freedom of religion for everyone.”
Lord Tariq Ahmad of Wimbledon, a member of the UK’s House of Lords and former Minister of State, called on Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif to ensure justice for the victims and take decisive measures to secure Ahmadi places of worship. Siobhain McDonagh MP, also a prominent member of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, expressed her outrage on social media. She stated, “Appalled by reports of a terrorist attack on an Ahmadi mosque in Rabwah, Pakistan. We urge Pakistani authorities to ensure the safety of all worshippers and end impunity for those who incite or perpetrate hate crimes.”
The Ahmadi Muslim community, classified as non-Muslims under Pakistan’s constitution, has faced systematic discrimination, mob attacks, and governmental neglect for decades. The assault further highlights global concerns articulated in international human rights reports, including those from the US Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF). These reports have consistently urged Pakistan to eliminate its discriminatory policies and uphold its responsibilities to protect vulnerable minorities from violence and persecution.

Grattan Institute report argues fall in costs will provide federal government room for more action on climate
Australian household energy bills will halve by 2050 as solar panels, batteries and electric cars and appliances become the norm, reducing pressure on the federal government over living costs and creating room for more climate action, a thinktank study suggests.
Modelling by the Grattan Institute finds that cutting greenhouse gas emissions from electricity generation in line with the goal of reaching net zero emissions by 2050 will cut average household energy costs from about $5,800 today to about $3,000.
