Intro
Maulana Sanaullah Amritsari was an Ahl-e-Hadith Muslim from British India, he was born into a family of Kashmiri descent. He was born on June 12, 1868 and died on March 15, 1948 in Sarghoda, Pakistan. He was a major opponent of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad and the early Ahmadiyya movement. Sanaullah Amritsari served as the general secretary of Markazi Jamiat Ahle Hadith Hind from 1906 to 1947. He was also the editor of the “”Ahle Hadees”” magazine. He moved to Pakistan at the Partition, losing his son in the process, and himself dying in Sargodha, Punjab, Pakistan, in 1948, after suffering from a stroke. Syed Muhammad Hussain Batalvi was also an Ahl-e-Hadith scholar who beefed with MGA uptil about 1902, Sanaullah seems to have stepped up for the Ahl-e-Hadith of India as they battled vs. Ahmadiyya. However, Sanaullah and Batalvi never seemed to have worked together.
In 1882-1884, Maulvi Sanaullah says that he met MGA for the first time and MGA didn’t say Asalamo Alaikum, this struck a chord with Sanaullah (See page 63 “Tahrik-e-Mirza”).
In 1896, the ROR of Nov-1940 alleges that Maulvi Sanaullah and Syed Muhammad Hussain Batalvi were in attendance when the speech was given by Maulvi Abdul Karim, which ended up becoming the book, “Philosophy of the Teachings of Islam”.
In 1897, MGA mentions Maulvi Sanaullah by name in the Appendix of Anjam e Athim.
In 1900, Maulvi Sanaullah was present in Lahore when Pir Mehr Ali Shah showed up and MGA was a “no-show”.
In 1902, Maulvi Sanaullah published his famous commentary of the Quran called Tafseer Sanai. MGA quoted this book in 1902, as MGA called Abu Hurairah as stupid, since this commentary quotes a hadith from Sahih Bukhari wherein Abu Hurairah proved that 4:159 meant that Esa (As) hadn’t died yet. He gets into a debate vs. some Ahmadi’s. MGA mentions all of this in his book, Ijaz i Ahmadi. This debate was to be held on October 29, 30, 1902. Syed Muhammad Sarwar Shah and Maulavi Abdullah Kashmiri were to represent the Ahmadis at the debate, and Maulavi Sanaullah the other party. The debate was held in the open under a banyan tree. There were only three Ahmadis at the debate and over 600 non-Ahmadis were present. Maulavi Sanaullah Amritsari fanned the feelings of the villagers by asserting that the Ahmadis were afraid of debates. When the terms were being settled Maulavi Sanaullah insisted that nobody should speak for more than 20 minutes despite the protest by Syed Sarwar Shah that the time fixed (20 minutes) was woefully inadequate. Also, MGA mentions the debate in Mudh in his book, E’jaz-i-Ahmadi (I‘jāz-e-Ahmadi) roughly 70 times, which was also in 1902.
In 1902 (Nov), MGA and his team of writers published “I‘jaz-e-Ahmadi” (Miracle of Ahmad)(See my collection of quotes). In this book, MGA challenged Maulawi Sanaullah to come to Qadian (see pages 40-41, online English edition)(See RK-19, page 131, via Bro Imtiaz video, 32:40 time stamp), MGA promised to give Sanaullah 100 rupees if he could disprove any of MGA’s prophecies. MGA also said that if none of the prophecies are proven false, it will be as if he is wearing a special medal of accursedness around his neck. MGA also said, It must be remembered that I have recorded as many as 150 prophecies in my book Nuzulul-Masih. If they turn out to be false, Maulawi Sanaullah will receive 15,000 rupees; and he will be freed from having to go begging door to door. At present, the number of my followers is in excess of 100,000. If I raise only one rupee per head from them to be given to the said maulawi, the amount will reach 100,000 rupees, which will all be given to him. Compared to his current financial position— whereby he is obliged to go door to door to collect a paltry sum of money and is thus stricken with divine wrath as he is living on the earnings made from funeral rites and sermons—to be in receipt of 100,000 rupees would be like having entered Heaven for him. But, if he does not pay heed to this announcement of mine and avoids paying a visit to Qadian to investigate the matter in accordance with the above-mentioned terms of reference (See Bro Imtiaz on TikTok on 10-31-26 too). MGA prophesied that Maulvi Sanaullah would never come to Qadian (See page 65).
In 1903, MGA has entire chapter wherein he talks about how Maulvi Sanaullah popped up at Qadian (See Mawahibur-Rahman). MGA claims that Maulvi Thana’ullah was present at the famous Karam Din case (see Haqiqatul Wahi, online English edition)(1903-1904). In Malfuzat, it is recorded that on 10 January 1903, at Asr time, MGA received news that Maulvi Sanaullah of Amritsar had come to Qadian. Hearing this news, MGA said, “So what? Thousands of passersby come here” (See Urdu-Malfuzat pages 683 to 688). Though Maulvi Sanaullah visited Qadian with the intention of meeting with MGA, despite this, he remained in a non-Ahmadi’s home, where he also challenged MGA to a debate. MGA found this inappropriate as Maulvi Sanaullah’s purpose of the visit was to meet MGA, therefore he should have stayed in Dar-ul-Ziafat as a guest of the Messiah. Arriving in Qadian, Maulvi Sanaullah wrote a letter to MGA in which he stated that he had come to Qadian and desired to express his thoughts and matters on some prophecies before him in a gathering.
In 1907, Maulvi Sanuallah started a newspaper vs. MGA called Muraqqa-e-Qadiani (or Muraqqa Qadiani). In 1917, the various monthly issues of Muraqqa-e-Qadiani (or Muraqqa Qadiani), essays, and public debates from the magazine were compiled and published in the format of a comprehensive book. Historical archives of the text can be accessed through platforms like Rekhta Urdu E-Magazines or viewed on Scribd.
In late Aug-1907, MGA and his team of writers alleges that plague had been raging for 11 years and was now about to spread in Kabul, America and Europe. They were alleging that plague was already spreading in America. MGA also alleges that he prophecies and even Maulvi Sanaullah saw the announcement back in 1896 (a lie)(Al-Hakam, vol. 11, no. 31, p. 12–13, dated 31 August 1907, Via Malfuzat-9, Online English Edition, pages 352-354).
In July of 1907, MGA and his team of writers mentioned Maulvi Sanaullah and said that no one can escape punishment (See the al-Badr, vol. 6, no. 28, p. 5–6, dated 11 July 1907, Via Malfuzat-9, Online English Edition, page 301).
On Nov-10-1907, MGA and his team of writers published an announcement in the Al-Hakam and Al-Badr of Nov-10-1907 (See the scans in the below)(Via Majmua Ishtiharat, V-3, pages 461-467). Bro Imtiaz explained it in full detail herein (1:19:40). This announcement is about Maulvi Sanaullah, the death of Mirza Mubarak Ahmad, Abdul Hakim Patialvi and a new promised son (Musleh Maud?). In this announcement, MGA says that people are showing happiness at the death of Mirza Mubarak Ahmad. MGA says that people are saying that the death of Mirza Mubarak Ahmad is a sign that MGA lost a Mubahila (with Abdul Hakim Patialvi and Maulvi Sanaullah). MGA and his team of writers tell a bold face lie and allege that MGA has tried to make the children of his opponents as signs of truth (1:22:09). However, this is a lie, in Jan-1907, a Muslim opponent of MGA named Saadullah died and MGA had prophecied that he not have children. In 1906-1907, via “Haqiqatul Wahi”, MGA mentions Abdul-Haqq Ghaznavi 6 times (see pages 306-307). MGA specifically under sign #92, and sign #159 (page 444). MGA alleges that Maulawi Abdul Haqq Ghaznavi had no children and thus lost the Mubahila (see page 445). MGA alleged that Maulawi Abdul Haqq Ghaznavi‘s brother died and he married the widow and she is now pregnant. MGA argues that in contrast, he was given 4 sons and hundreds of thousands of rupees (page 551). Also in this announcement, MGA alleges that he knew 2-3 years ago (1904-1905 era)(Kayn Burse) that Mirza Mubarak Ahmad would die young (1:25:09). MGA then alleges that he has already announced that this child would not survive. MGA also alleges that when his God told him that Mirza Mubarak Ahmad would die, MGA’s God also said that those will be bitter days in his life (like sad and shameful)(1:26:18). MGA alleges, besides these, there were many additional revelations which were explicit/clear/open about the impending death of Mirza Mubarak Ahmad. MGA alleges that many years ago he predicted the death of Mirza Mubarak Ahmad in newspapers like Al-Badr and Al-Hakam. These prophecies were clear and without a shadow of doubt that Mirza Mubarak Ahmad would not reach the age of adulthood and would die as a minor (it was destined, muqarram). Also in this announcement, MGA alleges (via Bro Imtiaz, 2:31:52) that when Mirza Mubarak Ahmad died (9-16-1907), MGA’s god sent him another fresh revelation about a boy who will be just like Mirza Mubarak Ahmad, a replica. This was because MGA’s God didn’t want his enemies to be happy, and it will be as-if Mirza Mubarak Ahmad never died. However, MGA died himself about 8 months later. MGA then says that his God will make his children a very powerful people (2:39:10). Also in this announcement, MGA mentions the prophecy vs. Dr. Abdul-Hakim Khan (from Patiala)(via Bro Imtiaz, 2:42:29) and how it started in July 1907 and was for 14 months (scheduled to end in Sep-1908). MGA says that his life will be prolonged, and he will win (see the “Age Prophecy“). MGA told Ahmadi’s to memorize and print this announcement (2:49:37) and post it on their walls. MGA also says that he knows the deaths of his close relatives (bahot qareeb mutalaqeen 2:52:34) is nearing.
In 1908 (Mar), Maulvi Sanaullah admitted that he was confused on prayers behind common Ahmadi’s, that’s why he seeks opinions of other scholars on this matter. But he was not confused on takfeer of Qadianies he has written clearly that fatwa of kufr is still binding and there is no reduction on severity of their kufr in the same essay (See scans in the below).
In 1908 (July) Maulvi Sanaullah is mentioned in the Ahmadi newspaper Al-Hakam, as he argued that MGA’s prophethood only lasted 6 1/2 years, since it started in 1901 (See Urdu ROR of June-July-1908, page 238, 295-296 and 298 and Via Bro Imtiaz, TikTok-25).
In 1909, Maulvi Sanaullah had a debate with top Ahmadi’s in Rampur. Mufti Muhammad Sadiq, Hafiz Raushan Ali, Maulvi Muhammad Ali, Syed Sarwar Shah, Mir Qasim Ali and Maulvi Ahsan Amrohi were there representing Ahmadi’s (see Hakeem Nur ud Din) as they debated Maulvi Sanaullah Amritsari (see Hakeem Nur ud Din).
In 1911, Maulvi Sanaullah commented on Mirza Basheer ud Din’s famous essay wherein the Mirza calls all Muslims as Kafirs (see Truth about the Split). Maulvi Sanaullah’s wrote a fatwa in terms of prayers behind the Lahori-Ahmadi’s.
In 1913, the District Magistrate (of Lahore) asked for money from Maulvi Sanaullah’s as a result of an article in the “Ahl-e-Hadis” magazine of Oct-31, 1913. This seems to be a response to the Qadiani article on the birth of Eisa (As). The grossly obscene Qadiani article appeared in the Al-Badr of Oct-30-1913. Maulvi Sanaullah and his team from his “Ahl-e-Hadis” magazine was forced to pay money as a form of a security. The Al-Badr was also forced to pay 3000 rupees as penalty. Reverend Mr. Howell seems to have also been part of this and he was warned by District Magistrate (of Lahore) and the Bishop of Lahore. Mufti Muhammad Sadiq was mentioned too and let off with a warning.
After 1914, he had many debates and arguments with various Ahmadi leaders, he eventually wrote many books, the most famous book in terms of his battles with Ahmadiyya is Ilhamat-e-Mirza (1928)– a critical account of the ‘revelations’ of Mirza. He was also the main editor and owner of a monthly magazine called, “Muraqqa-Qadiani” which lasted from 1907 until MGA died in May of 1908. Its articles were compiled in the shape of book titled “Muraqqa Qadiani” published in 1917. He seems to have also written the famous “”Tafsir Thana’i””, also spelled as Tafsir Sanai or Tafeer Sanai. This was published before 1908. MGA referred to it in Barahin-i-Ahmadiyya Vol. 5, MGA lied and claimed that Maulana Sanaullah had also written that Abu Hurairya was deficient in knowledge. In response to the publication of “Satyarth Prakash” in Urdu, Sanaullah Amritsari wrote “Haq Prakash by Satyarth Prakash” in Urdu (which has also been in Hindi for a long time). In which the answers were given in order. In it, Maulana Sanaullah Amritsari also wrote that Swami Dayanand did not know Hindi properly. The Hindi translation of the Quran had not yet been published. The Urdu translation was translated into Hindi. The Arya Samaj did not say from whose translation they write absurd things.
In 1916, Maulvi Sanaullah had a debate with Maulana Ghulam Rasul Rajeki in Kartarpur, this debate was reported in other Urdu Ahmadiyya newspaper also (See the ROR of June-1916).
In 1917, the various monthly issues of Muraqqa-e-Qadiani (or Muraqqa Qadiani), essays, and public debates from the magazine were compiled and published in the format of a comprehensive book. Historical archives of the text can be accessed through platforms like Rekhta Urdu E-Magazines or viewed on Scribd.
In 1922, Ahmadiyya sources claim that Maulvi Sanaullah had a debate with Maulvi Farzand Ali in Ferozepur on June 3, 1922.
In the 1930’s, Maulvi Sanaullah had many public debates with an Ahmadi-Mullah named Maulana Abul ‘Ata Jallundhari (See Nubuwwat and Khilafat, 1966).
In 1940, the ROR of Nov-1940 mentions Sanaullah and admits that he is still alive.
In 1945, Maulvi Sanaullah Amritsari commented on the 2nd Qadiani-Ahmadi Khalifa’s involvement in Indian politics (See the Ahl-e-Hadith of Amritsar, 6 July 1945, p. 4) and their similarity with Ghandi.
In 1947, in the late summer of 1947, Maulvi Sanaullah moved to Pakistan during partition and his son died in the rioting.
In 1948 (Mar-15), Maulvi Sanaullah died in Sarghoda, Pakistan after suffering from a stroke.
In 2026 (Oct-31), Bro Imtiaz streamed about Sanaullah coming to Qadian and confronting MGA (on TikTok)(and youtube).

Danielle Davis vs. Qasim Rashid, Virginia’s 28th District Senate Election vs. Senator Richard Stuart
Intro
Qasim Rashid’s run at the Virginia senate has been excruciating to watch. Qasim is obviously running per the order of his Khalifa, Mirza Masroor Ahmad, Ahmadi’s can’t run for public office without prior approval. Mirza Masroor Ahmad wants more political control and involvement from Ahmadi’s and has thus launched his best candidate. Qasim is going up against Richard Stuart.

Catch up on our arguments on 4:159 here. We have found the translations and commentaries by Noorudin and a 1947 english translation of the Holy Quran published under the name of the Khalifa, Mirza Basheer ud Din Mahmud Ahmad, however, he was not literate in english, thus, someone else wrote this on his behalf. In fact, this entire commentary and translation are missing from all Ahmadiyya sources in 2019. We have also found and posted Malik Ghulam Farid’s first edition (1969) of his long Quranic commentary, which was published under Mirza Nasir Ahmad. The current one on the alislam.org website has went through many editions. It is important to note that in 1947 and 1969, Ahmadiyya sources quote a Tafsir of the Quran called Jarir (Ubayy). They quote this Tafsir in their attempt to change the meanings of 4:159 from “they must believe in him before HIS death” to “they must believe in IT before their THEIR death”. This seems to be a reference to the Tafsir by Al-Tabari, who’s full name is Abū Jaʿfar Muḥammad ibn Jarīr al-Ṭabarī , and Ubay is most likely a reference to Abd-Allah ibn Ubayy (the famous hypocrite). However, upon cross examination, we find that Imam Ibn Jarir al-Tabari (d. 310) said in his Tafsir (6:18-21): “Commentators differ on the meaning of this verse, some saying that it means ‘believe in `Isa before `Isa’s death’.” He then cites reports to that effect from Ibn `Abbas, al-Hasan, Qatada, Abu Malik, and others. Then he said: “Others said that it means believe in `Isa before the death of the Jew or Christian.” He then cites reports to that effect from Ibn `Abbas, Ubay, Mujahid (Tafsir 1:180-181), `Ikrima, al-Dahhak, al-Hasan, Muhammad ibn Sirin, and others. Then he said: “Others said that it means believe in Muhammad – blessings and peace upon him – before the death of the Jew or Christian.” He cites a report to that effect from `Ikrima. Then Imam al-Tabari states that the likeliest view to be correct is: there is none of the People of the Scripture but he will certainly believe in `Isa before `Isa’s death.

Intro
Dear readers, Chapter 15 was revealed early on during the Meccan period (see Muir). Verse 14 (15:15 in the Ahmadiyya Quranic numbering system), Allah tells Muslims that he could open up a portal from heaven to Earth. The verse is literally as such: “”””And even if We opened to them a gate to the heavens and they were to continue ascending through it (all day long)”””, (See Tafsir Ibn Kathir). This verse proves that Allah is capable of opening a portal from heaven to Earth. Allah even asserts that humans could continue travelling from Earth to heaven if Allah wished.
