Intro
Check out Bro Imtiaz’s video on this topic herein. In 2025, Bro Imtiaz debated Maulvi Raheel Ahmad on TikTok (Feb) and the Maulvi lied and said that MGA was named “Ahmad” by his own parents (a blatant lie)(4:08:05 time stamp). Firstly, 61:6 of the Quran seems to refer to John 14:26 and thus authenticates a small part of that verse in the New Testament (aka Bible). In Sep-2025 (3:39:55), Bro Imtiaz explained how MGA alleged that Allah “Manuskhed” the “Jalalee-Color” (referring to Jihad with the sword) and wanted to show the “Jamalee-Color” (just preaching and etc, no conflict) of Jihad. MGA argued that the name Ahmad is the manifestation of Jamal, and—in contrast to this—the name Muhammad (saw) is the manifestation of Jalal (See pages 151-152). MGA then claims that Ismuhu Ahmad is via “Jamalee-Color” (just preaching and etc, no conflict) and this is MGA.
In 1879-1880, in BA-1 (MGA’s first book)(page 28), and via poetry, MGA calls himself “Ahmad of the latter Days” (MGA was speaking in the first person), then in the same poem, he says that the same person has “Khutam”(Urdu) the reign of the prophets (inferring that it’s about Muhammad [saw])(page 32) and on page 35, he says he is the brother of all the prophets. On page 36, MGA called himself the “Warner” and Adam (as) was the first and “Ahmad” the last. On page 43, “the light of the prophets has enveloped the world”. On page 44, “We are humble servants of all the Prophets”. On page 45, MGA proves that he was speaking in the “first person” and makes prayers to his God accordingly. 17 years later, in “Siraj-e-Munir” (1897) via a poem (see page 219), once again, MGA called himself as “Ahmad of the Latter Days”.
In 1890-1891, in Izala Auham (1890-1891) and via Tohfa Golarvia (in a classic back-dating move) that he (MGA) had a share (shareek) in the prophecy of Ismuhu Ahmad (61:6), Mussailma Kazzab was saying the exact same thing (see the clip on tik tok, twitter and youtube, 47:00 time stamp).
In 1893, MGA quoted 61:6 (61:7 in the Ahmadi-Quranic numbering system), “A’ina-e-Kamalat-e-Islam”, MGA seems to have argued to the effect that in this verse, Esa (As) predicted the coming of Muhammad (Saw)(referred to as Ahmad in 61:6) as after him (as after Esa [as]), thus, Esa (as) must have already died.
In 1894 (Jul-4)(muharram 1312), MGA and his team of writers argued that per the famous hadith in Abu Dawod, i.e., even if there was only one day left in the world, Allah would extend it until He has sent someone from me or from my progeny. His name shall be like mine, and
the name of his father shall be like my father’s. MGA argues that this he fulfills this hadith spiritually (See “Sirrul Khalifa, online English edition, pages 89-90). MGA also argues that sometimes, two persons can have the same names, such as ‘Ahmad’ and ‘Ahmad’ (this indirectly refers to 61:6, Ismuhu Ahmad). MGA quoted 2:31 (2:32 in the Kadiani Koran) and alleged to have been taught like Adam (as)(Naozobillah). MGA also argued that per this specific hadith his father (Mirza Ghulam Murtaza) was like the father of Muhammad (Saw)(naozobillah), because both of them were ready to receive the light of faith but left this world before they were able to do so and died in obscurity (See page 91).
In 1897, in “Siraj-e-Munir” via a poem (see page 219), once again, MGA called himself as “Ahmad of the Latter Days”.
In 1897-1898, MGA alleged to have received the revelation, O Ahmad, I shall accept all your supplications but not those in the matter of your collateral (See Anjam-e-Atham, p. 181, Ruhani Khaza’in, vol. 11, p. 181).
In 1898, MGA says that Muhammad (saw) has 2 names, Muhammad and Ahmad. These 2 names were given to Muhammad (Saw) in front of Adam (as)(See RK-14, Najmul-Huda, p. 3)(See Bro Imtiaz). MGA says that since Muhammad (saw) has 2 names (Muhammad [saw} and Ahmad [saw}), he is above all other prophets/messengers (See RK-14, Najmul-Huda, p. 4)(See Bro Imtiaz).
In 1898, MGA alleged that Allah has given me the name, Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani, which equals 1300, and indicated that the Messiah would come in the 14th century (See Kitab-ul-Bariyyah, RK13, page 258)(See Bro Imtiaz).
In 1901, in his Arabic only book, “Ijaz ul Masih” (see ROR of April-1941 also). In “Ijaz ul Masih” (1901), MGA clearly wrote that when Eisa (as) said “Ismuhu-Ahmad”, he meant the messenger of the latter days (MGA). In Malfuzat, MGA says he’s the Burooz of Ismay Ahmad.
In 1902, MGA alleged that God gave the name Ghulam-e Ahmad saw [the Servant of Ahmad saw] to this Messiah, in order to point out to the Christians that their Messiah who they deem to be ‘God’ cannot compare to even a lowly servant of Ahmad saw (See Defence-Against-Plague.pdf, page 22)(See Bro Imtiaz).
In 1902 (Jul), in the July 1902 edition of the Urdu-ROR there is a lengthy article (p. 275 – 292) entitled Farqleet. It tries to prove the standard Muslim belief that Jesus prophesied about the Holy Prophet Muhammad in his prophecy of the coming of a “comforter”, the Greek for which is Paraclete (Arabic: Farqleet). Muslims have always claimed that this is Jesus’ prophecy about ismu-hu Ahmad. This seems to be the first time that MGA and his team of writers began asserting that MGA was the “Ahmad” that was mentioned in 61:6 (61:7 in Ahmadi Quran’s).
In 1902 (Aug), a letter by Maulvi Abdul Karim is reproduced by the editor (Maulvi Muhammad Ali) of the ROR-Aug-1902 (see pages 306-336). The title/heading of the letter is given as “Muslim Resuscitation and The Means By Which It Can Be Brought Out”. This is a letter, which was written to the “Nudwat ul Ulema”, this was in response to their invitation to MGA to attend their annual Jalsa at Calcutta (Dec-1902). Maulvi Abdul Karim starts off with saying that he is looking out for Muslims and their welfare and yearns for Islam to dominate once again. Maulvi Abdul Karim gives a long speech and then finally says Muhammad (saw) is the best example of morals. He then presents MGA as the second coming of Muhammad (Saw)(naozobillah) and as a unifier for the Muslims in India. Maulvi Abdul Karim was critical of the Mutazalite‘s, and Sir Syed and his Aligarh College and that entire thrust of modernism and mixing it with Islam. Maulvi Abdul Karim then poses a question to the “Nudwat ul Ulema”, he asks as to who is the “perfect manifestation of the glory and attributes” of Muhammad (saw), Maulvi Abdul Karim then poses another question: “Who is it that claims to be Baruz? (representing the spiritual appearance) of the Great Arabian Prophet” (this is implying that MGA is the Baruz)(note by AFCB). Maulvi Abdul Karim then asks the “Nudwat ul Ulema” to point to anyone else that they had in mind who could fit as the 2nd coming of Muhammad (saw)(nauzobillah)(see page 321). Maulvi Abdul Karim then gives a long speech on the objectives of the “Nudwat ul Ulema”. On page 328, Maulvi Abdul Karim tells how (and laments) all Muslims, from the Ahl-e-Hadith to the “Naichri” (the English word ‘nature’ pronounced like a desi)(Sir Syed type of Muslims) believe that prophethood has finished. Maulvi Abdul Karim does describe other means of communication by Allah and he could mean the good dreams (which are 1/46th of prophethood) and seems to be implying MGA’s prophethood. Maulvi Abdul Karim criticizes the “Nudwat ul Ulema” and says that they keep trying to unite Muslims and will never achieve that. Maulvi Abdul Karim mentions Dowie and calls him a crazy old man. On page 330, Maulvi Abdul Karim presents the common Ahmadi argument that since Islam is a living religion, and thus, that must also mean that Allah is still speaking and via miracles and signs. Maulvi Abdul Karim then argues that any religion that is devoid of Allah’s speech should be laughed at. Maulvi Abdul Karim then argues that it’s sad that the Jews were blessed with so many prophets, but not in Islam. On page 332, Maulvi Abdul Karim argued that the previous Jalsa failed. Maulvi Abdul Karim the quotes 62:3 and presents MGA as someone who fulfills this so-called prophecy and as the second coming of Muhammad (saw)(naozobillah). On page 333, Maulvi Abdul Karim writes:
“””In other words, the wise and knowing God has raised Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian with the same spirit and power, the same blessings and favors and the same miracles, with which he raised the Holy Prophet. Since the same and even greater evils and corruption had appeared in the world, and the same teachings, the same sanctifying power, the same heavenly blessings, the same miracles, supernatural signs and grand prophecies were needed as at the time of the Holy Prophet, therefore, the God of jealousy and power has sent his true representative and perfect manifestation who has annihilated his own self in obedience to his Holy Master and tries day and night to re-establish his honor, glory and greatness, and he has given the same power and magnetism that the whole world may be replenished…..”
In 1902 (Sep), MGA and his team of writers argued that this is the same thing which I (Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani) have written in Izala Auham that I am partner (shareek) in Name Ahmad with Holy prophet peace be upon him. Some insane Mullahs have raised their voices upon it as per their habit on it. If it is denied then whole Prophecy becomes zero but it is the denial of Quran, and that God Forbid in Kuffar. MGA also says that Muhammad (Saw) only came into this world twice (See RK17- Page 254, Tohfah Golarhviyyah).
In 1902 (Nov-21), there is a report about this article in Badr, 21 November 1902 (See also Malfuzat, vol. 4, pages 197-198). It is headed: Farqleet and Ahmad, and runs as follows:
“After the prayer Maulvi Muhammad Ali sahib, M.A., said that a man had raised the objection about Farqleet that as its meaning in the magazine [Review of Religions] is given as one who distinguishes between truth and falsehood, how can this meaning apply to the word Ahmad. How can Ahmad be meant by Farqleet? Where is the prophecy using the word Ahmad in previous scriptures?”
MGA replied:
“It is not our responsibility to show this word in the present scriptures like the Torah etc. When the Holy Quran has declared these books to have been corrupted, where can we find this word? When the word Farqleet itself is the result of corruption, it is possible that there was another word which meant Ahmad. …
Farqleet is composed of farq and leet, farq meaning he who separates and leet meaning the devil. It means one who separates the devil. The name of our Holy Prophet is Farqleetbecause he received the Furqan. … Ahmad means one who praises God greatly. Who can be greater than him, who removes every kind of devliishness by means of Tauhid? To become Farqleet it is essential to be Ahmad. … The meaning of Farqleet is in other words Ahmad” (See Badr, 21 November 1902, See also Malfuzat, vol. 4, pages 197-198).
In 1903, MGA alleged to receive a revelation wherein Allah called MGA “O Ahmad” and that he was “made a Rasul”. MGA and his team of writers then argue that this means that as I have deserved the name Ahmad as a manifestation and reflection of Ahmad, though my name is Ghulam Ahmad; in the same way, as a manifestation and a reflection, I deserve the title Prophet, for Ahmad was a Prophet and Prophethood cannot be severed from him [See Tadhkiratush-Shahadatain, p. 43, RK20, pp. 45–46; Review of Religions, vol. 2, no. 11, 12, November, December, 1903, p. 441].
In 1905, in the Badr, MGA did make a brief comment on this topic, but he was brief.
In 1905 (Oct-17), MGA and his team of writers argued that these people inquire again and again where, in the Holy Quran, has thy name been mentioned. They do not seem to be aware that Allah named me Ahmad. The pledge of bai’at is taken in the name of Ahmad. Is not this name found in the Quran? (Al-Hakam, October 17, 1905, page 10, Quoted by Qazi Muhammad Nazeer in Truth Prevails).
In 1906, in the English-Review of Religions, MGA seems to have written that his God named his “Mirza Ghulam Qadiani”, he also said that he was named as such since this name equals 1300 when the Arabic letters are all counted together. It is an ancient system of writing any amount without ‘Arabic’ numerals in the Arabic language. It is more like Roman Numerals where alphabet denotes count, like XXIV is 24 in Roman numerals. It is memorized as abjad hawwaz huttee kaliman sa’fas qurshat sakhaz dadhagh! MGA mentions this in many places with many connotations. The problem is that he could include ‘Mirza’ in his name or not, depending on whatever whim he had at that time.
In 1908 (Oct), MGA and his team of writers alleged that similarly, I received two titles from God Almighty: One I was named ummati [follower of the Holy Prophet sas], as is indicated by my name Ghulam Ahmad sas [i.e. the Servant of Ahmad sa s]; second, I was named, by way of reflection, Nabi [‘Prophet’], as God Almighty named me ‘Ahmad’ in the earlier parts of Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya and addressed me repeatedly by this very name (See BA-5, online English edition, page 483 and BA-5, Urdu edition, page 360).
In 1913, while in Qadian, Maulvi Mohammad Ali wrote in The Review of Religions:
“Who is Mirza Ghulam Ahmad? In words of the Holy Quran we make reply, ‘He will come after me, his name will be Ahmad” (See The Review of Religions, Urdu, Vol. 12, No. 7, page 236
Quoted by Qazi Muhammad Nazeer in Truth Prevails).
In 1915 (Jan), after the split of 1914, the Khalifa emphatically declared that 61:6 (Surah Saff), was totally about MGA and no one else (in his book, Qaul ul Fasl and later in the year, Anwar i Khilafat).
In 1915-1916, in Kalimatul Fasl by Mirza Bashir Ahmad, he argued that it is “Yaqeenee and Quttay” that MGA is Ahmad Rasul as mentioned in 61:6 (See also Bro Imtiaz).
In 1917, via Al-Fazl dated: 15-19 May, 1917, also referenced as 1913, page No. 17-20, via Mirza Bashir Ahmad, it is written that after giving lengthy argument on the names of Holy prophet Muhammad Sallallaho Alaihi wa sallam and his father, states that Ahmad is not the name of Syedna Muhammad Sallallaho Alaihi WaSallam. Then he gives detail of the names of Mirza family, and draws the conclusion that his father’s name was Ahmad and hence he is meant to be the prophet whose arrival has been mentioned in the verse. Nauzubillahi Min Zalik (Via Mazameen e Bashir)(See also Tafseer Ibne Kaseer (translation and commentary of the verse by Ibne Kaseer). Mirza Bashir Ahmad writes that yes, his name was Ghulam Ahmad, but just forget about the Ghulam part and just call him Ahmad. Mirza Bashir Ahmad was trying to prove that MGA was named Ahmad, not on the basis of MGA’s revelations. Mirza Bashir Ahmad argues that history and authentic narrations prove that Muhammad (Saw) was never called Ahmad before his prophethood. Furthermore, any name after the claim of prophethood cannot be used. MBA says that if someone does this, we can’t trust anything else he says. MBA gives an example of someone pretending to be someone else. Moreover, Muhammad (saw) never called himself “Ahmad”, even after his claim of prophethood (See Bro Imtiaz).
In 1918, the Lahori-Ahmadi’s immediately responded, they totally disagreed with their Qadiani brothers, Muhammad Ali responded in 1918 with his book about the Split. This argument and disagreement went on for 4-5 years. Muhammad Ali never addressed the quote from “Ijaz ul Masih“.
In 1921, in the Khalifa;’s book, an Urdu book A’inah-i Sadaqat, the english appeared in 1924 as “Truth About the Split”, the Khalifa began to waffle on this topic. One last point, Ahmadi’s really believed that MGA=Muhammad and believed as such until 1922.
In 1941, the ROR of Feb-1941 has an essay on Muhammad (Saw) being mentioned in the Gospels. The Comforter and Parcletos. In MGA’s arabic only book, Ijaz-ul-Masih (1901), he claims that the phrase “Ismuhu-Ahmad” (61:6 of the Quran). This was quoted in the ROR of April-1941 (see pages 127-128).
In 1948, via “Life of Ahmad” by Dard (See pages 235-236). Dard alleges that MGA also explained that his advent was foretold in the Holy Quran (Al-Fatihah 1:7; Al-Nur 24:56, Al-Muzzammil 73:16 and 61:6).
In 1954, while he was in court, he totally adopted a new position, that was that Muhammad (saw) was the true person that the prophecy was about, however, MGA was the zill of Muhammad (Saw) and it is also about MGA (See Truth Prevails, see 70)(See also Bro Imtiaz).
In 1957, The 2nd Qadiani-Ahmadi Khalifa says that 61:6 is about Muhammad (Saw)(See Tafsir-e-Sagheer)(See also Bro Imtiaz).
In 1966, after the Khalifa died, Mirza Nasir Ahmad ordered Qazi Muhammad Nazeer (QMZ) to refute the Lahori-Ahmadi’s and their new book about the split, ‘Truth Triumphs”, in this book, QMZ admits “”on the surface, there appears to be a slight difference more in words”” as he talks about the contradictions of his CEO aka Khalifa. However, he spins it and never fully admits to the contradiction.
Finally, in 1988, in the famous 5-volume commentary on the Quran, Malik Ghulam Farid wrote that 61:6 only applies to MGA as a corollary. However, he failed to address his Khalifa’s comments in Qaul al Fasl (see in the below) and Anwar-i-Khilafat and on the order of Mirza Tahir Ahmad.
In 1998 (Nov), Mirza Tahir Ahmad alleges that 61:7 (61:8 in the Kadiani Koran) is about MGA, he also commented on 62:3 of the Quran (62:4 in the Kadiani Koran).
In 2024, –At 52:55, Maulvi Mahmood Kausar alleges that Jesus (as) said in the Quran (61:6) that he would return. Which means that someone would come in Jesus’ (as) name (per Maulvi Mahmood Kausar). Maulvi Mahmood Kausar mentions the “Ahmad” and confirms that this is about Muhammad (Saw), but it is also about MGA. Ahmadi’s believe that another prophet will be born in Islam. Maulvi Mahmood Kausar acknowledges 33:40 and explains how Muslim’s believe that no new prophets can come. Maulvi Mahmood Kausar says that Muslims believe that an old prophet will come and Ahmadi’s believe that a new prophet will come (See the clip on TikTok and Twitter).
In Dec-2025, Brother Ahmad from “Arise and Warn”, went onto an Ahmadi TikTok livestream wherein Musleh Shanboor was answering questions. Arise and Warn asked about 61:6, however, he specifically asked about the usage of a singular person in grammatic prose, i.e., “wa BiRasulin” (and Rasul). Interestingly, Musleh Shanboor asked “Arise and Warn” if he can read Arabic, “Arise and Warn” tried to respond by Musleh Shanboor misunderstood his response and said that he didn’t ask him to recite anything. This is an example of Musleh Shanboor misunderstand people whom he deems as hostile. This is a psychological condition. Musleh Shanboor says that this verse if firstly (1:09:05 time stamp) about Muhammad (saw). Musleh Shanboor says that in the first part of the verse, Eisa (as) is telling the Israelites that he is doing Tasdiq (as musadaqin) of (Muhammad, saaw)(1:11:40). Musleh Shanboor says that Muhammad (saw) can’t be directly applied to the second part of 61:6 (specifically “wa mubashirrun wa BiRasulin”), Shanboor translates it as “I am also giving you ‘new’ news” (wa mubashirrun)(1:16:00 time stamp)(see the clip on TikTok and Twitter). A few days later (Dec-10-2025), after being privately scolded by his supervisors (and Maulvi Razi), Musleh Shanboor was forced to retract his statements, he also admitted to making up his own argument which had nothing to do with MGA (see the clip on Twitter and TikTok).
In 2026, Bro Imtiaz engaged Qadiani-Ahmadi-Israeli TikToker Nur ul Haq (@Ahmadi_Muslim) aka Basel Khalifa (@basel.khalifa0) on 61:6 (61:7 in the Kadiani Koran). Nur ul Haq alleged that MGA was the only one specifically named “Ahmad”. However, Nur ul Haq also argued that MGA only became “Ahmad” via being the Buruz of Muhammad (Saw)(naozobillah). Nur ul Haq also argued that Muhammad (saw) was not singularly “Ahmad”, instead, he was “Muhammad and Ahmad”, whereas MGA was specifically “Ahmad”. Nur ul Haq also argued that “Ahmad” was only a power (sifat) of Muhammad (saw), not his name. Bro Imtiaz also pointed out that MGA’s name was actually “Ghulam-e-Ahmad” (the slave of Ahmad) and thus, he was not named “Ahmad”. Nur ul Haq also argued that since MGA named his sons as “Ahmad”, this also fulfills the prophecy of “Ismuhu Ahmad”. Nur ul Haq also denied (50:17 time stamp) being the son of the Indian Qadiani-Ahmadi Maulvi of Kababir, Shams ud Din Malabari, however, he told this to Bashir Ahmad (with AFCB) and many others a few years ago.
In 2026 (Feb), Bro Imtiaz sat with Maulvi Razi on a livestream and discussed the possibility of 12 debates with each other and settled on a few topics. However, Bro Imtiaz insisted on quoting Ahmadi murrabi’s like Ansar Raza, Saleem Meer, Hadi Ali Chaudhary, Maulvi Shahid Bhatti [2:55:43 time stamp] and all comments by Murrabi’s on the True Islam UK streams, like Maulvi Raheel Ahmad and Ibrahim Ikhlaf). To this, Maulvi Razi vehemently disagreed and argued that he is not here to defend Ahmadi murrabi’s (See the clip on TikTok and Twitter). In fact, all 12 debates were cancelled over this issue (4:48:12). Technically, Bro Imtiaz had given two options, either make the Quran the judge (Hakam), or every Murrabi will be quoted. The reason Bro Imtiaz wanted to quote Ahmadi murrabi’s is because there is a contradiction in terms of 61:6 (61:7 in the Kadiani Koran), between the statements of murrabi’s like Ansar Raza, Saleem Meer, Hadi Ali Chaudhary, Maulvi Shahid Bhatti, Murrabi’s on the True Islam UK streams, Maulvi Raheel Ahmad and Ibrahim Ikhlaf. Which person is accurately giving the position of the Ahmadiyya Jamaat in 2026? They all seem to differ. At 4:47:53, Maulvi Razi again said he is not here to defend Ansar Raza, Saleem Meer, Hadi Ali Chaudhary.
