Through his many sermons, lectures, books and personal meetings he has called for the separation of mosque and state and has championed the need for universal human rights through justice for all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2004 he launched the annual National Peace Symposium which is attended by by nearly one thousand people including ministers, parliamentarians, faith leaders, diplomats and other dignitaries.In 2009 he launched the annual \u2018Ahmadiyya Muslim Prize for the Advancement of Peace\u2018. This is an international peace award for an individual or organisation that has demonstrated an extraordinary commitment and service to the cause of peace and humanitarianism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the same year he initiated national peace campaigns comprising of distribution of leaflets promoting the need for peace through greater understanding. In the UK this leaflet has reached five million homes and is increasing day by day. This was supplemented by an international awareness campaign that featured adverts on buses, billboards as well as a large number of interfaith &amp; peace symposium and exhibitions of the Holy Qur\u2019an. In 2012, in light of the growing global tensions, His Holiness wrote a series of letters to world leaders calling for the peaceful resolution to world conflicts.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id252_eeb02f-1e > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id252_eeb02f-1e > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id252_eeb02f-1e > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);max-width:var( --global-content-width, 1290px );padding-left:var(--global-content-edge-padding);padding-right:var(--global-content-edge-padding);padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}.kb-row-layout-id252_eeb02f-1e > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id252_eeb02f-1e > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id252_eeb02f-1e > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id252_eeb02f-1e alignfull wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-1-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top kb-theme-content-width\">\n<style>.kadence-column252_c8abe3-20 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column252_c8abe3-20 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column252_c8abe3-20 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column252_c8abe3-20 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column252_c8abe3-20 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column252_c8abe3-20 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column252_c8abe3-20{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column252_c8abe3-20 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column252_c8abe3-20 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column252_c8abe3-20\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\"><style>.kb-row-layout-id252_5ea55d-90 > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id252_5ea55d-90 > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id252_5ea55d-90 > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}.kb-row-layout-id252_5ea55d-90 > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id252_5ea55d-90 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id252_5ea55d-90 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id252_5ea55d-90 alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-1-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top\">\n<style>.kadence-column252_ad6a4a-bc > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column252_ad6a4a-bc > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column252_ad6a4a-bc > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column252_ad6a4a-bc > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column252_ad6a4a-bc > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column252_ad6a4a-bc > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column252_ad6a4a-bc{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column252_ad6a4a-bc > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column252_ad6a4a-bc > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column252_ad6a4a-bc\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Call for Peace<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id252_c1a700-3d > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id252_c1a700-3d > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id252_c1a700-3d > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-none, 0rem );row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);grid-template-columns:minmax(0, calc(30% -
