Guidance: Duties of a Helper A Helper is responsible for nurturing of a new Ahmadi under his care. This process of nurturing is very simple and straight forward only if there is true spirit of responsibility and sense to gain the pleasure of Allah the Almighty. The main duty of the Helper is to become friend with the New Ahmadi, and build a real bond of brotherhood and attachment. All steps taken by the Helper need to be individually tailored to the personal needs of the New Ahmadi; we should put their needs first. For example, if they want more attention we should call and meet them more often, but if we sense that they feel pressured we should respect this and change our behaviour to meet their needs. For example, on weekly basis a Helper s phone call to his new Ahmadi brother or a face to face meeting will suffice the need of nurturing. During such meetings/calls, talks could be on diverse topics of general interests and near the end of the call a quick reminder about any forthcoming local Jamaat s program can be mentioned to new Ahmadi. With this in mind, over the long run the role of the Helper will be to assist the New Ahmadi in becoming a fully integrated member of the Blessed Jamaat of Allah Almighty. Helper will also submit his monthly report on a prescribed report form about his activities as a Helper. Here are some specific tasks for the Helper to on which he can guide and help his new Ahmadi brother: 1. AIMS No.: help them to get an AIMs number and AIMs card; 2. Local Jamaat: help them to build personal relationships with the local/regional President; 3. Transport: Offer transport to the mosque for prayers, if needed by the New Ahmadi; 4. Events: Invite New Ahmadi to participate in key Jamaat events (Jalsa, Ijtema, Eids, local meetings etc.), and arrange transport if needed; 5. Salaat: explain what Salaat is, and assist them in learning and praying Salaat, when appropriate; 6. Holy Quran: explain what the Holy Quran is, and assist them in reading Qaida Yassurnal Quran, when appropriate; 7. Fasting: explain what fasting is, and assist them in fasting, when appropriate; 8. Chanda (contributions): explain what Chanda is, and assist them in arranging Chanda payments, when appropriate; 9. Jamaat Duty: explain how the system of Jamaat duties (national, regional and local) works, and assist in arranging for the New Ahmadi to take on a Jamaat duty, when appropriate; 10. Mulaqaats: arrange initial, and six monthly, Mulaqaats with Huzoor(aba); 11. Tabligh: explain the Tabligh system, and assist them in engaging in Tabligh, when appropriate; 12. Rishta: Arrangement for a Rishta, at the correct time i.e. when New Ahmadi feels ready; 13. Review of Religions: enable them to subscribe to Review of Religions, and other monthly magazines of Jamaat when appropriate; 14. Helper Training: Train them to become a mentor for other New Ahmadis, when appropriate e.g. after having been a New Ahmadi for one year; 15. Other: ensure that any other of the New Ahmadi's care and support needs are met. 16. To ensure his new Ahmadi brother is receiving his respective auxiliary organisation s monthly/weekly magazine and other magazines like Ahmadiyya Bulletin. 17.
