Qadianis/Ahmadis of course recite the same words of
Shahadah, but do they mean
the same meaning or do they have some other meanings in their
hearts?
The following quotations from the books of Mirza Ghulam, the founder of
Ahmadiyya Movement,
and his successors and followers tell us a very different story. These also
explain in part the strong
reaction of the muslim masses towards Qadianis' recitation of 'The
Kalima'.
Most people would have seen Qadianis displaying Kalima, La ilaha illa Llah
Muhammadur Rasoolu Llah,
in very bold and big Arabic letters on their shops, houses,
community centers, publications etc., as if expressing their love for it but
perhaps trying, subconciously, to prove to themselves that they are 'muslims'.
Question is: What is the difference between a Muslim
reciting the Kalima and a Qadiani reciting the same
Kalima?
Let me highlight the differences between the two by giving few quotations
to prove what exactly is meant by a qadiani when he recites the Kalima
Tayyibah:
Mirza Ghulam claims to be Mohammad
(saaw)
- Mirza Ghulam says:
"'Mohammadur Rasoolullah wal lazeena m'ahoo,
ashiddao 'ala alkuffare rohamao bainahum'
in this revelation God has named me Mohammed
and Messenger as well."
(Roohani Khazain vol 18 p.207)
- Mirza Ghulam said:
"Holy Prophet has two advents or in other words you can say
that in one Buroozi way coming again of Holy Prophet (saaw)
was promised which has been fulfilled by the appearance of
Promised Messiah and Promised Mahdi."
(Roohani Khazain vol 17 p.249)
- Mirza says:
"Anyone who differentiates between me and MUSTAFA (pbuh),
he has not seen me and has not recognized me."
(Roohani Khazain vol 16 p.171)
- Mirza Basheer Ahmad s/o Mirza Ghulam says:
"Maseeh Mowood is not a seperate thing from
Holy Prophet pbuh, but it is He Himself who has come
again in this world in Buroozi form..... therefore is there
any doubt that God has sent Holy Prophet again in Qadian?"
(Kalimat Alfasl p.104-105, Review of Religions Qadian March
1915)
- Mirza Ghulam says:
"I have said several times that according to the verse (of Holy
Quran)
'wa akhareena minhum lamma yalhaqoo behim' as Burooz I am the same
Prophet, the Khatamul Anbiyyah, and 20 years ago God named me
Mohammed and Ahmad in Braheen-e-Ahmadiyya and
declared me His Being."
(Aik ghalti ka azala, Roohani Khazain vol 18
p.212)
- Mirza Ghulam says:
"But the fact is that the spirituality of Holy Prophet pbuh (in the
form of Mirza Ghulam)
in this end of the sixth millenium, that is in these days, is much more
stronger and
perfect and forceful as compared to those (first) years, like a full
moon."
(Khutba-e-Ilhamiah, Roohani Khazain vol 16
p.271)
- Basheer Ahmad s/o Mirza Ghulam said:
"Now it is clear that if rejecting Holy Prophet is KUFR then
rejecting
Promised Messiah should also be KUFR, because Promised Messaih
is nothing seperate from Holy Prophet, but it is Him and if he who rejects
Promised Messiah is not KAFIR then the rejector of Holy Prophet is also
not Kafir, God forbid."
(Kalimat alFasl p.146-147 Review of Religion, Qadian,
Mar-Apr 1915)
- Mirza Ghulam said:
"The holy Prophet (saaw) had two births as a Prophet.
In other words, we may say that it was promised that the
Holy Prophet (saaw) would be born in the world once more
(reincarnated) and this was fulfilled by the incarnation of the
Promised Messiah and the Promised Mahdi".
(Tohfa-e-Golravia, Roohani Khazain vol 17 p.249)
- Mirza said:
"And Allah bestowed upon me the bounty of the holy Prophet and
made it perfect, and he drew towards me the kindness and generosity
of that merciful Prophet, so much so that my entity became his entity.
Thus he who joins my Jamaat really becomes one of the Sahaba of
my Chief who was better then all the Prophets. It is not hidden from
those with the ability to think that this is what the words "others of them"
mean. ".
(Khutbah-e-Ilhamiah, Roohani Khazain,
vol.16, pp.258-259)
- Mirza said:
"When I am the Holy Prophet incarnate and when all the
accomplishments
of Muhammad including the prophethood are reflected in my mirror of my
shadiness, then who is the man who has claimed prophethood in a seperate
being ?"
(Ek Ghalti Ka Izala, Roohani Khazain,
vol.18,p.212)
- "Thus does any doubt remain that God has sent Muhammad (pbuh) again in
Qadian to fulfil his promise?
(Kalimat alFasl by Mirza Basheer Ahmad, Review of Religions
p.105, No.3, vol.14)
- Official Qadiani mouthpiece, Al-Fazl from Qadian wrote:
"The entity of the promised Masih (Mirza), in the sight of Allah is
the
entity of the Holy Prophet (SAW). In other words, in the records of
Allah there is no duality or difference between the promised Masih and
the holy Prophet (SAW). Rather they both share the same eminence, the
same rank, the same status and the same name. Although verbally they
are two, yet in reality they are one and the same".
(Al-Fazl, Qadian,
vol.3, No.37, dated 16th September 1915, as cited in Qadiani Mazhab page
207, 9th edition, Lahore)
- Following poetry was recited in front of Mirza Ghulam by a follower.
Mirza is reported to have said: Jazakallah and after having written in
beautiful calligraphy, hung it in his house.
"Muhammad has descended again amongst us
and is greater in his glory than before
He who wants to see Muhammad in perfection
Should look at Ghulam Ahmad in Qadian."
(Qazi Zahoor Ahmad Akmal Qadiani, printed in Qadiani
Newspaper Paigham-us Sulh dated 14th March 1916)
From what has been said above, following conclusions can be drawn:
- Mirza Ghulam considered himself to be the none other than Holy
Prophet saaw, reincarnate;
- His followers also considered him to be the second advent of Holy Prophet;
- Any qadiani/ahmadi follower who thinks that Mirza Ghulam is different
from Holy Prophet Mohammad Mustafa pbuh, is not a believer of Mirza (see
quote No. 3);
- Holy Prophet's Second Birth in the form of Mirza Ghulam is more perfect
than His first coming (see quote No. 6);
- Braheen-e-Ahmadiyya is the Book of God (see quote No. 5);
- All muslims are Kafir because they have rejected Mirza Ghulam (see quote
No. 7);
- Mirza's followers who have seen him are called SAHABA (see quote No. 9);
