Intro
Mirza Ahmad Baig (also spelled Beg) from Hoshiarpur was the father of the famous Muhammadi Begum, she was his eldest daughter(see Dard pages 175-176), he died on 9-30-1892, however, MGA and his team of writers made a silly mistake in “Ainah Kamalat e Islam”, they wrote that Ahmad Baig died on 9-31-1892, the same blunder was also in Maktubat, it was changed in later editions of “Ainah Kamalat e Islam”. It is also written that the prophecy states that Ahmad Baig would die in 4 months, however, from April-7-1892 to Sep-21-1892 is roughly 6 months. This was edited in later editions.
Mirza Ahmad Baig was married to the elder sister of Mirza Imam ud Din, Mirza Nizam ud Din and Mirza Kamal ud Din, her name was Umar un Nissa (possibly in 1874). Their father was Mirza Ghulam Muhi-ud-Din, this was Mirza Ahmad Baig’s father-in-law. Umar-un-Nissa and Ahmad Baig had 4 children, 2 daughters, Inayat Begum and Mahmooda Begum and 2 sons, Mirza Mahmud Baig (See Haqiqatul Wahy, online english edition, page 697) and Muhammad Baig.
Ahmadiyya sources claim that they all eventually converted to Ahmadiyya (see Dard page 336 and See Haqiqatul Wahy, online english edition, page 697). The Mirza family at Qadian and the Baig family at Hoshiarpur knew each other very well, in fact, MGA’s sister (Murad Bibi) was married to Mirza Ahmad Baig’s elder brother, Mirza Muhammad Baig in roughly the 1840’s, she died and had no children. 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. In the below, we will give a chronological explanation of MGA’s interactions with Mirza Ahmad Baig, his brother-in-law. Finally, it is rumored that Mirza Ahmad Baig was a follower of Nawab ud din Ramdasi, as was Mirza Sultan Muhammad and Muhammadi Begum.
In 1893, after Ahmad Baig died, MGA mentioned him 20+ times in “Ainah Kamalate Islam” (See online English edition).
In 1897, MGA mentioned the Ahmad Baig prophecy is also mentioned (see pages 62 and 124, Siraj-e-Munir, online English edition). Also in 1897, in Anjam-e-Athim, MGA mentions his prophecy vs. his cousins and other close relations.
In 1899, MGA gets a revelation, “A virgin and a widow”, MGA alleges that this Muhammadi Begum’s husband dying and becoming a widow and MGA marrying her [See Tiryaqul-Qulub, p. 34, Ruhani Khaza’in, vol. 15, p. 201](See Also, the 2009 online edition of Tadhkirah, pages 50-51).
In 1902, MGA alleged that part of the prophecy vs. Muhammadi Begum was fulfilled via the death of Ahmad Baig (her father) and MGA was waiting for the second part to be completed (See “Ijazi i Ahmadi” or “The Miracle of Ahmad”, the 2019 online english edition, page 16).
In 1906-1907, via “Haqiqatul Wahi”, MGA mentions Mirza Ahmad Baig on pages, 219-220, 231, 233, 237, 238, 280, 492, 493, 576, 577, 696, 697, 710, 714, 715. MGA basically says that even though Muhammadi Begum was still alive and married with children, the prophecy was conditional and thus fulfilled. MGA was lusting after her
In 1908 (Oct), via Braheen-e-Ahmadiyya Vol. 5 is published. MGA mentions Ahmad Baig on pages, 254, 255, 494, 495.
In 1909, via “Nuzul ul Maseeh” (See pages 247-248), the Ahmad Baig prophecy is mentioned.
