Later, His Holiness directly addressed many of the volunteer workers and advised them to conduct their duties with diligence and to be regular in prayer. His Holiness stated that this year’s Jalsa would prove particularly challenging, as it was taking place after an enforced break of one year, due to the adverse weather conditions and above all because extra precautions and diligence were required to ensure that the event was held in a Covid-safe way. He said the organizers and the participants should all exhibit patience and humility at all times.

Speaking about this year’s Jalsa Salana, Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad said:

“Last year due to Covid it was not possible to hold the Jalsa Salana UK but this year it was decided that it will be held, on a smaller scale than normal, to ensure that the members of our community would be able to quench their spiritual thirst. Similarly, the duty workers of Jalsa Salana desired to gain the blessings of serving the guests of the Promised Messiah (peace be upon him) once again.”

As he concluded, Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad prayed:

“May Allah the Almighty enable the duty-workers to serve in the best way and for this, it is essential each and every worker sincerely prays to Allah. May Allah the Almighty bless the Jalsa Salana in all respects.”
