<strong>THE</strong> <strong>TRUTH</strong> <strong>ABOUT</strong><br />
<strong>AHMADIYYA</strong><br />
MASJID AL-AQSA<br />
The third holiest site to Muslims is<br />
Masjid Al-Aqsa (pictured on the<br />
right) in Jerusalem, Palestine. It is<br />
this locality that the Holy Qur’an<br />
refers to in the following verse,<br />
“Glorified be He Who carried His<br />
servant by night from the<br />
Inviolable Place of Worship to the<br />
Far distant place of worship the<br />
neighbourhood whereof We have<br />
blessed...” (The Holy Qur’an, 17:1)<br />
Mirza Ghulam Ahmad contends,<br />
“…Qadian is mentioned in the<br />
Holy Qur’an... It is a certainty that<br />
the verse of the Holy Qur’an<br />
(17.2)… means the mosque of the<br />
Promised Messiah which is in<br />
Qadian.” (Tadhkirah, Page 460/1)<br />
In reference to this event, the<br />
Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW)<br />
said, “When the people of Quraish<br />
did not believe me (i.e. the story of<br />
my Night Journey), I stood up in<br />
Al-Hijr and Allah displayed<br />
Jerusalem in front of me, and I<br />
began describing it to them while I<br />
was looking at it.” (Sahih Bukhari,<br />
V5, B58, #226). Mirza Ghulam<br />
Ahmad Qadiani is clearly a liar.<br />

I Am Superior<br />
<strong>THE</strong> POLY<strong>THE</strong>IST PROPHET<br />
In 1907, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad gave a ruling on a belief<br />
that he considered was shirk (polytheism). He stated,<br />
“…It is rude to say that Jesus didn’t die, and it is indeed<br />
major shirk”. (Roohani Khazain, Volume 22, Haqiqat-Ul-<br />
Wahi, Page 660) This is his opinion, his fatwa if you will<br />
that if an individual is holding such a belief then s/he is<br />
committing a grave sin in the form of shirk.<br />
However, earlier in his life, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad says,<br />
“….But as a body of Muslims was firmly of the faith - and<br />
I too believed - that Jesus (AS) would descend from<br />
heaven…” (The Essence of Islam, Volume 4, Page 46) This<br />
is reiterated by A.R. Dard in his biography of Mirza<br />
Ghulam Ahmad where he says, “Ahmad (as) reiterated in<br />
the Brahin-e-Ahmadiyya, published in 1884, the popular<br />
belief that Jesus (as) was alive in the heavens and that<br />
he would come again to this world… It was in 1891,<br />
when God informed Ahmad (as) that Jesus (as) had died,<br />
that he changed his belief...” (Life of Ahmad, Page 50)<br />
Therefore at least during the first fifty-two years of his<br />
life and the first twelve years after supposedly being<br />
assigned as a “prophet”, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, in his<br />
own words, was committing an unforgivable sin in the<br />
form of shirk which is impossible for a prophet of God.
I AM SUPERIOR<br />
In 1902 Mirza Ghulam Ahmad<br />
began making much more<br />
explicit claims. He went to the<br />
extent of declaring that, not<br />
only is he the return of the Holy<br />
Prophet Muhammad (SAW) but<br />
that “...these days, is much<br />
stronger, more complete and<br />
stronger than in those early<br />
years.” (Roohani Khazain, Vol.<br />
16, Khutba-Ilhamia, Page 271/2)<br />
He had the audacity not only to<br />
make a comparison but the<br />
cheek to claim he is superior to<br />
“the master of the children of<br />
Adam” (Bukhari). Only a<br />
wretched, cursed person could<br />
utter such words.<br />
NEW WEBSITE<br />
In September 1902 a man by the name of John Hugh<br />
Smyth-Pigott (b.1852) of the Agapemonites, a Christian<br />
off-shoot sect, made claim to be God incarnate<br />
coinciding with his declaration that he was the second<br />
coming of the Messiah on Earth.<br />
Upon hearing this claim Mirza Ghulam Ahmad wrote a<br />
pamphlet entitled, “A Warning to a Pretender to<br />
Divinity”. Herein he announced “J.H. Smyth Pigott... has<br />
recently announced himself as God… God has, therefore,<br />
commanded me to warn him… that if he does not repent<br />
of this irreverent claim, he shall be soon annihilated,<br />
even in my life-time… If I die before Mr. Pigott, I am not<br />
the true Messiah nor am I from God… God shall bring<br />
the false Messiah to destruction within the life-time of<br />
the true one.” The Ahmadiyya monthly magazine,<br />
“Review of Religions” stated that this was “not a<br />
challenge” to Pigott, but rather it was a “definite<br />
prophecy” (Review of Religions, Page 349, Sep 1903).<br />
This was published in numerous newspapers around Europe and America. It should be<br />
emphasised that Mirza Ghulam Ahmad prophesised that Pigott would die within his lifetime<br />
unless he repented. In particular note the fact that he said “If I die before Mr. Pigott, I am<br />
not the true Messiah nor am I from God”. Pigott continued his claim stating in 1909, “I am<br />
God” (The Nottingham Evening Post, “Smyth-Pigott Dead”, Page 7, Monday, March 21 st<br />
1927). Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani died in Lahore on May 26 th 1908 (A Message of Peace,<br />
Page III) and John Hugh Smyth-Pigott died years after him in London on March 21 st 1927.<br />
The prophecy failed as Mirza Ghulam Ahmad was a false prophet as was Pigott.<br />
