It seems that the Barahin-i-Ahmadiyya Vol. 1-4 were re-published and edited in 1900, that’s when the second edition was published, the 3rd edition was published in 1905 (see Barahin-i-Ahmadiyya, vol. 3, online english edition). The Barahin 1&2 were very small, MGA had his team add many announcements, the same story exists for BA3. One more thing, MGA published his first ever revelation in the BA3, before 1882, MGA had never published any revelations, nor had he admitted to getting any, he did write that it was possible in BA2. This book is barely 15 pages long, and then abruptly ends and is continued in the BA4. A super long footnote starts as the book ends. Weird! Nevertheless, in this entire book, MGA argues that divine revelation is allowed in Islam and will never finish, this is MGA’s main argument in the Barahin. There is no claim of MGA being a Mujadid in this book. However, many years later, #ahmadis back-dated this claim to 1882, since in Nishan Asmani (1892) MGA claimed that he made the claim of being the Mudadid 11 years prior to this book. The 4th revelation in the below is what #ahmadis claim was MGA’s claim to being a Mujadid. After the publishing of BA-4, MGA was immediately called a Kafir by the Ahl-e-Hadith ulema of India.

6 pages worth of an english translation seem to have been published in the ROR of Aug-Sep-1919. The ROR of April-1938 has another 6 pages of BA-3 translated into english, they correspond to BA-3, pages 141–146. In the ROR of Jan-1942, MGA’s revelations are discussed, from BA-3.

Intro
In 1883, in a letter to Mir Abbas (the first ever ex-Qadiani), MGA began confessing to getting 3:55 (3:56 in the Kadiani Koran) as a revelation repeated so many times that Allah alone knows the count. Sometimes MGA received it continuously from mid-night till the Fajr time (must be over 50 times). This story also appeared in Hayat-e-Ahmad (1915) volume 2, number 2, page 72 (by Sheikh Ya‘qub ‘Ali ‘Irfani). It seems that MGA was slowly introducing this belief and hinting towards a change, it was also mentioned in different ways in the Barahin (See Barahin-e-Ahmadiyyah (1884), part 4, pp. 556–557 sub-footnote 4–Urdu, Ruhani Khaza’in, vol. 1, pp. 664–665 sub-footnote 4—Urdu, Barahin-e-Ahmadiyyah, part 4, online English edition, page 434).

In 1892, in MGA’s book, “A’ina-e-Kamalat-e-Islam” on page 198-Urdu (page 529 online English edition), MGA admits that he knew all along that he had been made Esa (as) and had been given ilham’s to that effect, however, MGA hid this from the world, this explains the writings of MGA on Esa (as) in this era (1879), they were all lies, MGA was slowly revealing himself. In Barahin-i-Ahmadiyya Vol. 4, MGA translated WAFFA as a taking, like the common Sunni/Shia explanation as he continued to mask his beliefs. This is why there is no specific ilham/wahi which MGA got in 1890 which caused him to make his claim to be the Messiah.

In 1905, MGA confessed that in the “Barahin” series, he had written that Eisa (as) would physically descend from heaven (See Al-Badr, vol. 4, no. 7, p. 2, dated 5 March 1905; al-Hakam, vol. 9, no. 8, p. 7, dated 10 March, via Malfuzat-7, online English Edition, pages 128-131). MGA also confesses that he was given the title of “Messiah” also in that book, and not just the title but also the revelations relating to the works that the Messiah was to come and do, were all listed in relation to MGA.

In 1906-1907, via Haqiqatul Wahi (See pages 182-183), MGA and his team of writers argued that in the Barahin series era (1879-1884), that the Messiah, son of Mary, could descend from the heavens. MGA alleged that even though in Barahin-i-Ahmadiyya itself, MGA’s God called MGA as Eisa (as) and also said to MGA that the tiding of his advent had been given earlier by God and His Apostle. Nevertheless, MGA continued to argue that Eisa (as) would come down physically from heaven. However, MGA alleges that in the late 1880’s, revelations came down on him, like torrential rain from heaven, to the effect that MGA was the Promised Messiah and thus in 1891, he made the claim.

Mirza Ghulam Ahmad was stuck in the science of the late 19th century. This was before Einstein proved that space-time was the same thing and space can be bent. It was because of the science of the late 19th century which led Sir Syed to deny the miracles of Esa (as) and his physical ascension and physical return. Obviously, with a space suit and artificial oxygen, humans can go anywhere in the Universe. Furthermore, even 55:33 says that humans can escape from heaven and Earth. The quote in the below is from Izala Auham (written in 1890, published in 1891, as soon as MGA claimed to be the Messiah).

Many Indian’s fought for the British during WW-1 and 2, this is no secret. The English-Review of Religions for September of 1915 tells us that there were a huge amount of Ahmadi’s were fighting alongside the French Expeditionary Force in France  and Belgium during WW-1, however, names were not given. Ahmadiyya literature was also planned to be translated into French, these ahmadi’s have been totally forgotten in the history of Ahmadiyya. September-1915, pages 350-357. Further, Ahmadi missionaries were being sent all over the British Empire during WW-1, Ceylon, Mauritius and London were the top locations. During WW-1, Ahmadi’s killed lots of Muslims in Iraq (Ottoman Empire) and demanded the right to preach Ahmadiyya in Iraq.

Nicholas H. A. Evans has recently published a book about Qadian and Ahmadis in 2020, this is based on ethnographic research that he conducted in 2011-2012 in and around Qadian (field work). “Far from the Caliph’s Gaze: Being Ahmadi Muslim in the Holy City of Qadian” by Nicholas H. A. Evans. Evan’s is a research professor at London School of Economics and Political Science, he works in the Department of Anthropology.

He called Ahmadiyya conversion rates from the 90’s and early 2000’s as a total fraud (fanciful)(see page 129 of his book).

Qadian was invaded by 80,000 refugees in late August of 1947 (see Mirza Tahir Ahmad, “Man of God”). Mirza Tahir Ahmad claims that 70,000 Ahmadi’s (he writes them as Muslims) came to Qadian for the defense of the holy land of Ahmadi’s, however, this seems to be a lie. Per the census conducted by the British government, there were only 56,000 in all of British India by 1931. The normal population was roughly 10-12,000 people in Qadian, of which about 10,000 were Ahmadi’s (see Spate).

By 1947, Qadian had the highest concentration of Ahmadi’s in the world. Qadian was a mini-vatican, a state within a state (see Spate). Nevertheless, the Khalifa abandoned 10,000 Ahmadi’s, men/women and children, and left them to be viciously murdered. The full account of the amount of Ahmadi’s killed has never been posted, the Khalifa fled in late-August. Further, the Khalifa seems to have already known that Qadian was going to be given to India, he thus ordered enough food for 3 Jalsa’s. There was also a bomb blast during a Friday Sermon at the Masjid Aqsa in roughly July 25th of 1947 (see the ref in the below). Illegal guns were also found at Qadian (see the Hindustan Times in the below), Mirza Tahir Ahmad also mentioned this in his book, “Man of God”.

Rattan Bagh was the area where the Khalifa (Mirza Basheer ud Din Mahmud Ahmad) moved to as he fled Qadian in late August of 1947. The Khalifa lived here for 2 years, he then permanently moved to Rabwah on 19th September 1949(see Fazl-e-Omar). It is now called Azad Park, it is just a few miles from where MGA died on Brandereth Road. The Khalifa seems to have lived there with most likely an entourage of 100 people. However, Mirza Bashir Ahmad seems to have lived in Rattan Bagh a bit longer, his book, “40 Gems of beauty” was published from Rattan Bagh on 11-13-1950. By 1960, the Ahmadiyya movement seems to have totally abandoned this location. Ratan Bagh was mentioned by Syed Muhammad Ahmad (a nephew of MGA) in his memoirs.

Per Ahmadiyya records, MGA and his team wrote “Hujjatullah” in Arabic which he began on March 17, 1897 and completed on May 26, 1897 (see Hidden Treasures).

This book seems to be a response to Maulavi ‘Abdul Haq Ghaznavi and Shaikh Najfi (shia), who had accused MGA of not knowing proper Arabic. Interestingly, Maulavi ‘Abdul Haq Ghaznavi is presented as someone who danced like a prostitute (baghiyyatun)(see the quote in the below). There are 3 additional instances of this word (baghaya). Adnan Rashid discussed this also (Check out Part-2 herein [“Zarrayatul baghaya” and “Waladul Haraam” are discussed] and on the Dawah wise channel).

Hani Tahir and Ikrima Najabi pointed out how MGA and his team of writers plagiarized from Muqamat Al-Hariri. On the old forum, we discussed this topic in detail. This book has never been translated into english, not even snippets. Our friends at the cult.info.blog have also written about this.

On the old cult.info forums, we covered the topic of MGA and plagiarism. MGA and his team did write that all of MGA’s writings in Arabic books are a type of revelation (see Seeratul Mahdi). Mirza wrote a book called ‘hujjatullah’ in which he used material plagiarised directly from Maqamat Al-hareeri. This book was published in 1897.
