Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Holding 'Coffee, Cake and True Islam' Events

On Saturday, a far-right group called ACT for America is planning to hold anti-Muslim rallies across the country. In response, the Ahmadiyya Muslim community is holding more than 100 open houses called “Coffee, Cake and True Islam.”

It’s an event the community has been holding at coffee houses and mosques for some time, and, here in Phoenix, a local mosque in Chandler will host one this weekend.

To find out more, I talked with Latif Ahmed, director of the local chapter of the Ahmadiyya Muslim community.
