Love of one‘s homeland is part of Muslim faith (Saying of Holy Prophet Muhammad).

This message was carried across by a group of Ahmadiyya Muslim youth during Independence day celebrations in Glen Ellyn,IL.

Like previous years “Muslims for Loyalty and Peace” and ”Love for All, Hatred for None” were proudly displayed on the banners with beautifully decorated float with US flags and decorations. More than 25 young men and girls were chanting patriotic slogans like, “Long Live USA“ ,“We Love USA“ and “Happy Fourth of July”. The crowd received this message with big smiles and appreciated by applauding and joining in the slogans. The participants gave away candies, T-shirts, visors and balloons.
