His name appears in the settlement of 1865 in Dard, (see page 68), his birth year and death year are unknown. He is an uncle of Mirza Ata Muhammad, Mirza Ghulam Murtaza’s grandfather. In 1865, his off-spring were finally added to the pension that was already supposed to be given to all the males of the Mirza family. His only surviving male in 1865 was Mirza Jilani, who was the son of Mirza Tasadduq Jilani. Mirza Jilani was a distant paternal uncle of MGA and Mirza Jilani was a sort of second cousin. MGA mentions Mirza Jilani in his book Haqiqatul Wahy (1907) 4 times. He mentions him specifically in terms of the “Case of the Wall”. The settlement of 1865 specified a new pension arrangement as such, 700 rupees ; two-fifths belonged to the descendants of Mirza Tasadduq Jilani, two fifths to those of Mirza Gul Muhammad, and one-fifth to Mirza Ghulam Murtaza as the managing proprietor (see Dard page 68). He is also mentioned in the ROR of Aug-1939.

Intro
Mirza Ghulam Hussain was a paternal cousin of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, Mirza Imam ud Din, Mirza Nizam ud Din and Mirza Ghulam Qadir. His father was Mirza Ghulam Haidar. He seems to have went missing after the settlement of 1865. He was married to Imam Bibi, who was the sister of Mirza Ahmad Baig (Beg). He is mentioned in the Punjab Chiefs in terms of the family tree of MGA. It was his land which was in-limbo as MGA asked to marry Muhammadi Begum. In roughly 1887 Mirza Ahmad Baig had approached MGA in an attempt to get MGA to transfer over the property fully into Imam Bibi’s name, MGA had the full legal right to accept or deny this. This would have given Imam Bibi the power to name an heir to the property, if MGA didn’t sign, at her death the property would revert to the children of Mirza Ghulam Murtaza (MGA and Mirza Sultan Ahmad) and the children of Mirza Ghulam Muhi-ud-Din (Imam ud Din, Nizam ud Din and their sisters). He is mentioned in the ROR of Aug-1939 and Dec-1939.

Intro
Mirza Ghulam Haidar was the youngest brother of Mirza Ghulam Murtaza and Mirza Ghulam Muhi ud Din. He had one child, Mirza Ghulam Hussain who was married off to a sister (her name was Mai Sahib Jan, see ROR of June-1939) of Mirza Ahmad Baig (Beg) pre-1865, her name was Imam Bibi (see Dard page 170). Ahmad Beg was the father of Muhammadi Begum. Thus, MGA was related to Muhammadi Begum 4-5 different ways. Imam Bibi and Mirza Ghulam Hussain had NO children, Ahmadiyya sources say that he had been missing for 25 years (1888-25=1853) since roughly 1853, however, we don’t agree with this. We think that he was missing since 1865. Since in the settlement of 1865 he received a pension and other property rights which were continually yielding high monthly income and he is specifically mentioned in the 1865 edition of the Punjab Chiefs.
Furthermore, in 1902, Ghulam Haider’s relatives (MGA’s nephews and cousins) who had inherited Haider’s house, which was right next to MGA’s house had died (imam bibi died in 1902), and half of that house was given to MGA, MGA seems to have bought the other half and thus created a mansion for himself. He is mentioned in the ROR of Aug-1939.

In 2025, this book was published in English for the first time.
Dear readers, after MGA died, there were 3 books that were published posthumously in 1908 and 1909, “Jesus in India”, “Braheen-e-Ahmadiyya Vol. 5” and “Nuzul ul Masih”. These books were cover-up jobs, the BA5 addressed the failure of MGA’s “age-prophecy”, which promised that MGA would live until age 80, which would be 1920, however, MGA died early of cholera. In 2025, “Nuzul ul Maseeh” was mis-translated into English by the Qadiani-Ahmadi‘s.
In this book, MGA claims that his father died in 1875, and he also wrote that his brother died in 1881. Why did he do this? His editors did this to discredit MGA himself and assert that MGA was just guessing, they were thus able to adjust his year of birth back 4-5 years to 1835. Ahmadi sources claim that MGA began writing this book in 1902. MGA and his team also added a new detail to the Lekh Ram prophecy, i.e. that he would killed via a knife. MGA’s editors also denied that he was a Hanafi in this book.
The title of this book translates into english is “The Descent of the Messiah”, however, Ahmadi sources call it “The Second Coming of the Messiah”. This book was published on the 25th of August 1909. Interestingly enough, Ahmadiyya sources have just published an english translation of ‘Ijaz i Ahmadi” (1902). The first 55 pages of Ijaz i Ahmadi are in fact the Appendix for Nuzul ul Masih.
In 1909, in the book, “Nuzul-ul-Maseeh” (see page 197), MGA compared Nusrat Jehan with Muhammad’s (Saw) wife, Khadija (ra). MGA and his team of writers alleged that in Barahin-i-Ahmadiyya, V-4, page 558, MGA received a revelation “Be grateful to Me that you have found My Khadija” and this was a prediction of a happy marriage with Nusrat Jehan, however, this revelation is not found anywhere in MGA’s books. MGA even alleged that this happy marriage resulted in 4 sons (however, Mirza Mubarak Ahmad died in 1907, making it 3). MGA alleged that Nusrat Jehan was given the name of “Khadija” and she was blessed to be the mother of blessed progeny. MGA also alleges that Nusrat Jehan is Sadat and thus from the family of Muhammad (Saw)(naozobillah).
“The Ahmadiyya Movement and Ahmad’s place among the Prophets” (Part-3) bt M. Ataur Rahman is published via the ROR of Dec-1914. He quotes MGA’s books like, “Haqiqatul Wahy”, “Nuzul ul Masih”, “Barahin-i-Ahmadiyya Vol. 5”, “Tiryaq ul Qulub” and “Chashma-e-Marifat”.

Intro
Murad Bibi was the eldest child of Mirza Ghulam Murtaza, (See Dard, page 33). She had two siblings that lived, Mirza Ghulam Qadir and Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, her first cousins were Mirza Imam ud Din and Mirza Nizam ud Din, and her niece was the famous Muhammadi Begum. She was married to Mirza Muhammed Baig in Hoshiarpur very early on in her life (he died early and she lived as a widow)(see Seeratul Mahdi), most likely by the age of 11, she probably visited Qadian all the time. Mirza Muhammad Baig’s younger brother was Ahmad Baig (also spelled Ahmad Beg), he married the sister of Mirza Imam ud Din, and his daughter was Muhammadi Begum. Thus MGA knew Muhammadi Begum from an early age, since he was her uncle in 3-4 different ways, MGA was a super uncle so to speak. Mirza Ahmad Baig‘s sister was also married to another cousin of MGA, Mirza Ghulam Hussain, the son of Mirza Ghulam Haidar, who was the brother of Mirza Ghulam Murtaza and Mirza Ghulam Muhi ud Din. As you can see, the Baig (Beg) family of Hoshiarpur and the Mirza family at Qadian intermarried with each other exclusively. I would guess that she was born in roughly 1830, which is a few years before Mirza Ghulam Qadir, her death year is unknown.
Nevertheless, in the below, we have posted 2 references from Seeratul Mahdi which describe the insanity of MGA’s sister, Murad Bibi. She is also mentioned in the ROR of June-1938.

Intro
Mirza Ghulam Murtaza was a fortune teller in the 1840′s as well as a commander in the Sikh Army (1814-1845-ish). He was known to be a heavy smoker (tobacco and everything else). He never prayed as a Muslim and spent his life in the company of British and Sikh officers. His father was Mirza Ata Muhammad, who allegedly lost all of his land to the Ramgharia Sikhs in the early 1800’s. In fact, the entire Mirza family was thus forced into exile.
Fateh Singh Ahluvalia protected the Mirza family of Qadian from 1802 to 1814 (see Punjab Chiefs), as the Mirza family fled Qadian and crossed the river Beas and settled in Beghowal. When Ata Muhammad died (his father), in roughly 1814, Mirza Ghulam Murtaza and his extended family were allowed to move back to Qadian (see Griffin, Punjab Chiefs and See also “The Quest for the Past: Retracing the History of Seventeenth-Century Sikh Warrior”). Ranjit Singh then gave 5 villages (+Qadian) back to Mirza Ghulam Murtaza and his brothers. Mirza Ghulam Murtaza and his brothers joined the Sikh military, wherein they served until 1849-ish.
Ranjit Singh was in power, he thus confiscated all the misl’s in the Punjab and gave it governmental ownership, except the Ahluwalia Misl, and this is where Mirza Ghulam Murtaza lived. He might have met his wife (Charagh Bibi) in a village named Aima in this era. From 1840-1855, MGA went to Aima many times in his youth.
Mirza Ata Muhammad died in 1814, Mirza Ghulam Murtaza was allowed to bury him in Qadian. Mirza Ghulam Murtaza was barely 22 years old and he entered the Sikh military, he helped kill the Muslims in the battle of Peshawar. MGA tells us that his father “awaited the arrival of the British monarchy like a very thirsty person looks forward to water” [RK, v. 15, p. 113; a little below the middle of the page]. What Mirza Ghulam Ahmad fails to tell us is that his father was fighting on the side of the Sikhs when they were fighting Sayyad Ahmad Baraylvee. Murtaza eventually married Charagh Bibi in roughly 1830, the sister of Mirza Jami‘at Baig of Aima, a village in Hoshiarpur district, we are not sure if the Mirza family ever married into this family ever again, nevertheless, they had 3 children that lived, Murad Bibi (1830), Mirza Ghulam Qadir (1833) and MGA. MGA was thus born in early 1840 in Qadian, whereas his cousins Imam ud Din, Nizam ud Din and his older brother Mirza Ghulam Qadir were not, (Ahmadiyya sources dispute this and claim that the Mirza moved back to Qadian as early as the 1820’s). He was mentioned in some detail by Sir Lepel Griffin in The Punjab Chiefs, a survey of the Punjab’s aristocracy (1865 edition). Ghulam Murtaza was married to Chiragh Bibi and had three surviving children and was known to be a heavy smoker (see ROR of June-July-Aug-1939 and ROR of 2009). It is important to note that MGA incorrectly wrote the death of his father in a book published in 1909, Nuzul ul Masih, MGA and his team of ghost writers wrote 1875, instead of 1876. One last thing, Mirza Ghulam Murtaza was a non-practicing Muslim, he never prayed any salat and never attended a Juma. Murtaza also hated the laziness of MGA. MGA hated his father and elder brother and told the world that he was happy that they died. MGA wrote that his father died of Pechis (dysentery, bloody diarrhea)(see Kitab ul barriya and the grave stone at the Masjid Aqsa). Continue reading “Who is Mirza Ghulam Murtaza (1791–1876)?”
Intro
Per Ahmadiyya sources, he was born in roughly 1833 (See Dard). Ahmadi sources claim that he was 55 years old in 1883 when he died (see dard, page 33), this would make him 7 years older than MGA (if we use 1835 as MGA’s birth, which Dard did), Dard is the only source that estimates his age. In 1865, the Punjab Chiefs accidentally wrote his name as Mirza Ghulam Kadar and wrote that he was the nephew of Mirza Ghulam Murtaza, this was an error, however, the 1890 edition carried the same error and even called him as the son of Mirza Ghulam Muhammad (Mirza Ghulam Murtaza‘s brother). It even says that he died in 1883. The Punjab Chiefs tells us that Mirza Ghulam Qadir was a major warrior under General Nicholson in the battle of Trimu Ghat, this was where the mutineers were stuck on an island and were forcibly drowned, this was the 46th native infantry. This is why the Mirza family was above the law in British-India. His cousin, Mirza Imam ud Din also helped the British extensively in Delhi and was a soldier in Hodge’s horseman. Many of his uncles also served. In fact, a letter was given by General Nicholson stating that the Mirza family was the most loyal in the Gurdaspur district, General Nicholson died shortly thereafter. It should be noted that before the British took over, the entire Mirza family was serving in the Sikh military and Mirza Ghulam Murtaza was soooo trusted that he was a commander of an infantry regiment. However, as soon as the sikhs lost to the British, the Mirza family seems to have lost all prestige, this is from 1848 to 1857. It is unclear what the Mirza family did in this era. In 1858, a pension of 200 rupees was given to the Mirza family. The famous pension incident happened in 1864, MGA then moved to Sialkot. In 1865, the famous settlement took place and the rest of the Mirza family were included as it rose to 700 rupees.
In 1898, in MGA’s book, “Najm ul Huda”, MGA admitted that he was hated by his father and elder brother (*since he was lazy and ate opium all day) and refused to work (and lived a private life with no interaction with anyone). Thus, MGA’s god caused MGA’s father (Mirza Ghulam Murtaza)(died at roughly age 85) to die as well as MGA’s elder brother Mirza Ghulam Qadir (who died at roughly age 50). In fact, during MGA’s childhood, MGA’s father repeatedly called MGA a girlie-man. MGA’s father would not allow MGA to raise his own children. MGA was a momma’s boy, his mom would repeatedly save MGA and make sure that MGA never had to work. In 1864, MGA was sent to pickup his father’s pension money and squandered it all. This was the worst thing that MGA had ever done, he was thus punished by being forced to work in Sialkot in the courts and specifically to never see his mother again (who was blamed or MGA’s being useless and lazy). MGA’s mother died in 1868, after she died, a messenger was sent to Sialkot to bring MGA home, thus MGA’s punishment was complete, MGA even missed the funeral.

Dear readers, this is from an Ex-Ahmadi. I re-produce it here in its entirety.
The entry
I wanted to share my appearance on my friend’s podcast series, where I discuss what it means to challenge one’s beliefs, question one’s faith, and eventually find an identity which aligns with their values.
The podcast can be found here: https://myhorseheart.com/2018/12/11/a-courageous-heart-for-authenticity/
It is a fairly long listen at 43 minutes, so the following are timestamps for the various points of discussion:
-
0:30 – Introduction
-
2:10 – Motivation for an Interview
-
7:10 – Challenging One’s Beliefs
-
9:10 – Emotions While Questioning
-
12:00 – Specific Catalysts
-
15:55 – Coming Out Publicly
-
23:30 – Conversations With Family
-
31:10 – Improved Relationships
-
34:00 – Advice to Others
-
37:40 – Moderating Inner Dialogues
-
40:30 – Conclusion
I also share my name and face in this interview, because I think it’s so important that those of us who are able to publicly denounce Ahmadiyyat and speak up about it should, for the sake of those who are in more dire and unfortunate situations where they are either held-back by their families, or are unable to be granted a space to actually question their beliefs – I hope that this will help some of the readers here with their journey through the indoctrination

Intro
Mirza Nizam ud Din (born in 1845–)(See Punjab Chiefs, 1909 edition)was a cousin of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, he was the son of Mirza Ghulam Muhi-ud-Din. He was the eldest brother of Mirza Imam ud Din. MGA’s brother, Mirza Ghulam Qadir was married to Mirza Nizam ud Din’s sister, Hurmat Bibi, they had no children. His other sister was married to Ahmad Beg of Hoshiarpur, the famous Muhammadi Begum. He was alive and well by 1909, and 74 years old, he seems to have outlived all of his cousins. He never accepted MGA or Ahmadiyya (See Punjab Chiefs, 1909 edition). In 1919, it is reported by the Al-Fazl that the Nizam ud Din’s family lives right next to the Aqsa Mosque, Nizam ud Din and Imam ud Din owned a huge house which resembled a mansion and it was really close to home of MGA. Nizam ud Din was dead by 1919. Dard reports that the only child remaining from this progeny was Gul Muhammad who had converted to Ahmadiyya between 1908 and 1919. Dard also reports that their property was donated to the Ahmadiyya Movement. He is mentioned in the ROR of Aug-1939, Oct-1939 and Dec-1939. He is mentioned by his grandson, Mirza Aziz Ahmad in the ROR of Oct-1942.
