Intro
The Ahmadiyya jamaat didn’t get access to France until the 1990’s. The French were never very friendly with the #ahmadis and saw them as a British implantation. Similarly, Ahmadi’s got access to the French colonies of Africa later on in most cases, like the 1980’s.

Per Ahmadiyya sources, Ahmadi’s got access to France after WW-2 ended, most likely through pressure from the British. The 2nd Khalifa, visited France in 1924 and viewed the construction of the famous Grande Mosquée de Paris (The Grand Mosque). The Khalifa tried to get the French government to give the mosque to him and the Ahmadiyya Movement, however, the French disagreed. You can view the Ahmadiyya twitter handle herein. Khalid Sheldrake accompanied the Khalifa. At the Paris railway station, Mr. Khalid Sheldrake, who had been sent ahead to arrange accommodations, was present along with the imam of the Paris Mosque, and Mr. Durand, a correspondent of the Havas Agency. The Havas Agency, much like Reuters, is a global news dissemination service (See 29 November 1924 issue of Al Fazl, and transcribed from the original English, published in the November & December 1924 issue of The Review of Religions).

The first Ahmadiyya place or worship was opened in 2008, the Moubarak Mosque in Saint-Prix, Allier. The mayor of Saint-Prix, Jean-Pierre Enjalbert, was at first against the idea of an Ahmadiyya mosque in his town, but later changed his mind and gave his approval. He said, “What reassured us is the fact we’ve got to know them through all these years, had time to observe them, see how they act. I came to many meetings, listened to what they had to say and learned what their message was.”

Ahmadiyya has also sent (2015-2016) one Murabi to the French Antilles, which are 3 overseas colonies of the French.

In May of 2025 (17:21 time stamp), Ahmadi’s from France travelled to the UK to meet Mirza Masroor Ahmad, there are barely 10 in this photo, of which, the majority are Arabs with Visa problems in France. It was also revealed their convert goal was 5 for the year of 2024-2025 in their local area (sector 78). Which proves that Ahmadiyya is dead in France.

In 2026, a team of Ahmadi’s from France met with Mirza Masroor Ahmad on “This week with Huzoor”.

In 2026 (Feb-20), on an episode of “This Week with Huzoor“, Mirza Masroor Ahmad met with some “Waqfe nau” Ahmadi’s who are living in France and alleged that anyone can go to heaven, Allah has the final word and he even quoted the hadith which says a man killed 100 people and still went to heaven. Mirza Masroor Ahmad also explained how an Ahmadi should brainwash a new convert. Mirza Masroor Ahmad infers that Ahmadi’s are lazy and only call new converts when they need a chanda payment (See the clip on TikTok and Twitter). Mirza Masroor Ahmad tells Ahmadi’s to become disingenuous friends with new converts. Mirza Masroor Ahmad reminds him to not sit around and speak Urdu in their presence either (this is so rude) and thus ignore them as such.

“Forts of Muhammad”: Tahrik-e-Jadid’s foreign mosques and missions


Two missionaries of Tahrik-e-Jadid, Malik Ata-ur-Rahman and Maulvi Ataulllah were sent to Paris in 1946 to establish a mission. They converted a hotel room into an Ahmadiyya mission. It was a humble beginning and there were many obstacles to overcome. These missionaries reported on how the French did not appreciate their arrival, frowned upon them, showed no hospitality to them and were averse to the message of Islam.

There seem to be just a few Ahmadi Mullah’s working in the country in 2021.

A prominent French born Ahmadi is @islam_et_media, he regularly translates Ahmadiyya stuff into French.

There are 4. Capacity is barely 400.

The Mubarak Mosque is located in the commune of Saint-Prix in the Val-d’Oise. It is the first Ahmadiyya mosque in the country. This mosque was inaugurated by Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad on 10th October 2008. Head of the worldwide Ahmadiyya Movement. The Mubarak Mosque in France was established in Saint-Prix territory thanks to the support of the mayor Jean – Pierre Enjalbert (DLR).

Message of Islam Ahmadiyyat echoes in early 1900s French periodicals

“The multiplicity of religions that share humanity is a subject of concern for many pious souls. Perhaps nowhere is this issue more perceptible than in India, where Hindus of all sects, orthodox or schismatic Muslims, and missionaries of all denominations dispute the empire of consciences. But this regrettable confusion of metaphysical ideas and morals will soon cease if only the Viceroy [of India] will follow up on the request that Mirza Ghulam Ahmed[as] of Qadian, in the district of Gurdaspur (Punjab), has just addressed to him. His appeal calls for nothing less than the religious unification of India. Simplistic in spirit and in no way eclectic, he does not care to obtain it, thanks to a learned proportioning of the various beliefs, according to a formula worked out by some Congress in Chicago [in 1893] or elsewhere. What he wants is the definitive triumph of the best religion, that is to say, his own: for he is a new Messiah, and he even has disciples; as proof, he publishes the list among the announcements of the Indian newspapers.

“It is not only in this intelligent use of the press that he reveals himself to be a completely modern Messiah. In the past, many true believers, not just Muslims, found no better arguments to serve their personal convictions than iron and fire. The soul of the honest Mirza[as] is repugnant to these violent and antiquated methods. What he proposes is much more in line with our manners; it is a real contest that would academically bring together selected representatives of the various denominations, pundits, maulvis and doctors of theology. The contest would consist of two parts, a written essay and practical exercises. The topic of the dissertation would naturally relate to the superiority of each candidate’s respective credo. Since the time that the sages have been discussing, it has been feared that this test will not be absolutely conclusive. Also, the Mirza[as] counts above all on the second part of its programme, under the terms of which each competitor will be invited to prove manifestly, through a heavenly sign, that he has monopolised the divine favour […]. A miracle, points out the new prophet, is still what has been found most convincing in this affair, and it is there that he awaits his adversaries, Brahmans, moullas, Anglican bishops, or Jesuit Fathers, at the foot of the wall. He cautions us that all precautions will be taken to avoid possible fraud, after which the Governor General in Council will proclaim, with the conqueror, the victorious religion. Ghulam Ahmed[as] assures that everyone will be grateful to him. […]

“The excellent Mirza[as] has thought of everything, and without hesitation, he undertakes to be crucified if he does not win the victory! This is, I think, serious […]. Such, however, is the hardening of the hearts of the powerful of the earth that you will find that the government of India will pay no heed to his request. Perhaps you will be grateful to me for pointing it out to you all; for faith is always a beautiful thing.”

The ROR of Oct-1913 contains an advertisement for the Islamic Review and Muslim India both of which are Lahori-Ahmadi newspapers and it specifically mentions Khwaja Kamaluddin. It also mentions how Khwaja Kamaluddin read out a paper at the “6th Congress of Religions” in Paris, France on July 19th, 1913.

The ROR of Nov-1914 has an article entitled, “The Ahmadiyya Community and the Turkish Government”. This is an essay by the 2nd Khalifa. He quoted MGA’s writings on the topic from 1897. MGA’s book, Al-huda is quoted. The 2nd Khalifa is upset that the Ottoman’s have joined the war on the side of Germany. He goes on to assure the British Government that Ahmadi’s are the most loyal citizens of the British Government and in fact, over 100 Ahmadi’s are fighting in WW-1 against the Germans in Uganda and France.

The Dec-1920 edition of the ROR alleges that a French-countess named Lena Louvevas converted to Ahmadiyya. The ROR of July-1920 reports that Mufti Muhammad Sadiq converted a french person to Ahmadiyya during his ride from the UK to New York (this is a lie).
______________________________________________________________________________________________
1923

On Oct-21-1923, he seems to have given a speech and taken a photo at the Institute of Engineers Paris, France (See The Moslem Sunrise of Jan-1924). It seems that Mufti Sadiq spent 2 weeks therein. He was scheduled to land in India on Nov-23-1923. Thus, it seems that Mufti Sadiq was in France for more than 2 weeks. Ahmadiyya sources allege that Mufti Sadiq converted 700 people to Qadianism during his 3.5 years in the USA. He was first travelling from Paris to Marseilles, and then from there to India.

A prominent French writer, M Pierre Mille (1864-1941) wrote:

“A new Messiah has just appeared; let it be said! […]

“He is the Messiah and Mahdi at the same time, in the European sense that we give to this word because he does not limit his propaganda, as the others did, to the Muslim countries. […] He has missionaries, whom he sends everywhere, and one of them has just preached in Paris, then in Marseille.

“Ghulam Ahmad” has “made a thousand predictions, all of which, it seems, have come true. I readily believe that the predictions always come true. In this regard, it is enough to draw a little on the prophecy, on the one hand, and on the facts, on the other.” (La Dépêche Coloniale et Maritime, 22 November 1923, p. 2)

This article was also published in Excelsior on 23 November 1923.

La Dépêche Coloniale et Maritime, 22 November 1923

An article authored by Guy Mazeline (1900-1996), states:

“A Prophet’s envoy is passing through Marseille.

“Dr Mufti Muhammad Sadiq, after a long trip around the world, is now in our city. Sent by the [Second Successor of the] Prophet Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, he went to bring the good word to Africa, Egypt, Germany, and England. The number of his conversions exceeds 700,000. The great Prophet Mirza[as] lives at Qadian, amongst the Punjabi and the tigers, at the foot of the Himalayan mountains and for twenty years Muhammad Sadiq has lived in his company. […]

“Muhammad Sadiq has a vast mission. He propagates the essential virtues of the Mohammedan [sic, Islamic] religion and the precepts of Ghulam Ahmad, who said:

“‘I have been informed, by clear and full revelation, that I am the Promised Messiah for the times which are beginning, and that I am also the Man who is to appear in due time, sent by God to revive the Islamic faith, which is weakening.’

“And like any strong religion, it has martyrs, we venerate, over there in Qadian, the memory of Maulvi Syed Abdul Latif, stoned in Afghanistan by the clerics of Kabul. By virtue of this great heroism and his ideal, the [preaching of the teachings of] Prophet Ghulam [Ahmad] brings about new conversions every day. And it is to him that all the honour and merit belongs, for he is the inspired interpreter of the revealed law, the modern Christ […].

“He is also the one who built the Ark to save the people from the deluge of scepticism, obscurantism, immorality, misery, and corruption. He is the one who has published 80 books and made a thousand prophecies. His books have been read by countless readers and his prophecies have been fulfilled.” (Le Petit Marseillais, 7 November 1923, pp. 1-2).

1924

The Moslem Sunrise of Apr-1924 tells how Mufti Muhammad Sadiq stopped in Marseilles, South France and wants to build a mosque in Paris. 

Interestingly, in 1924, during his visit to France, the 2nd Khalifa was invited to visit the Grande Mosquée de Paris (The Grand Mosque) that was being built by the French government in Paris. Present were prominent newspapers and Muslims who greeted the 2nd Khalifa and his entourage. At the same time, he visited a nude opera house with Zafrullah Khan. Khalid Sheldrake was there too and prayed behind his pseudo-Khalifa.

“I prayed, ‘O Allah, may this mosque be given to us and [may we] be given the opportunity to make it a means of spreading your religion.’” (Al Fazl, 18 December 1934)

’Événement wrote:

“Here is the origin of this Movement. The Founder of the sect, Mirza Ghulam Ahmed[as] (1836-1908), from a very old noble family, studied Christianity in depth. […] Claiming to be the [second coming] of the god Krishna, Jesus, and the Hindu Messiah Mahdi, he preached all over India, predicting the future and manifesting miracles.

“In 1896, several […] Ahmadis held a council in Lahore. They decreed that Ahmed’s[as] followers, while recognising the Quran, must believe in Ahmed[as] as the Messiah. […]

“Despite its opposition, Ahmadiyyat has developed more and more; its missionaries travelled through West Africa, America and Europe, as Ahmed[as] claimed that most Europeans would convert to his religion [Islam Ahmadiyyat]. The Ahmadis are even in the process of building a superb mosque in Berlin (Charlottenburg).” (L’Événement, 3 January 1924, p. 3)

Message of Islam Ahmadiyyat echoes in early 1900s French periodicals

In 1926, Henri Lammens, a Belgian Jesuit in Lebanon, wrote in his book “L‘Islam: Croyances et Institutions”:

“[Translation from French by Sir E Denison Ross]

“AHMADIYYA: A more recent reformist movement in Islam, dating from 1880 [the year when the first two parts of Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya were published], has resulted in the creation of a new sect, that of the ‘Ahmadiyya’. The founder from whom it takes its name, Mirza Gholam Ahmad (d. 1908), a native of Qadian in the Punjab (India), claimed to have discovered the veritable tomb of [Jesusas] Christ, who,” he claimed, “had found refuge in India and died there. This find served as the starting point of Ahmadiyya. Its three chief novelties are its Christology, its theory of the Mahdi and that of the jehad. It is this last which gives it an appearance of Islamic reform.” (Islam: Beliefs and Institutions [L‘Islam: Croyances et Institutions], Translated by Sir E Denison Ross, 1929, Methuen & Co. Ltd., London, p. 188)

Screenshot 2023 06 26 105439
L‘Islam: Croyances et Institutions | First edition, 1926

He further states:

“A hadith,” utilised “by all aspirants to the title of Mahdi, announces the appearance of a restorer of Islam, at the dawn of each new century. Gholam Ahmad gave himself out as this reformer, appearing on the eve of the fourteenth century of the Hijra (1880 A.D. = 1299 A.H.). He combined the double mission of the Messiah and the Mahdi, whom he declared to be one and not two persons, as the Sunnis suppose (v. p. 149). The Mahdi of the Ahmadiyya has a horror of bloodshed. The Holy War must therefore be waged chiefly with spiritual weapons.” (Ibid.)

He continues:

“The sect numbers adherents chiefly in the Punjab, variously estimated at seventy-five thousand to half a million. The latter figure is furnished by the Ahmadiyya. They possess a few mosques in Europe (England, Germany). They edit periodicals and propagandist tracts. The sect aspires to become, as it were, a universal religion ‘not only for the reform of Islam, but for the regeneration of the Hindus, Muhammadans [sic., Muslims] and the Christians.’ […]

“After the death of the Founder, they divided into two distinctly opposite factions. The older, that of the Qadian, remains under the conduct of his son [ Mirza Bashir-ud-Din Mahmud Ahmad, Khalifatul Masih II and continues his teaching. The second, whose centre is at Lahore, seeks to draw near to Sunni Islam without renouncing its activity amongst the Hindu sects.” (Ibid., p. 189)

Journal des Missions Évangéliques wrote:“The Ahmadiyya Movement“We extract the following passages from the review ‘En Terre d’Islam’:“‘Islam has not stopped its universal aspirations: the current activity of the Muslim missionaries is proof of this. Its efforts are, indeed, noticeable in England: a mosque in Woking, the laying of the first stone of the mosque in London in October 1924, an attempt by the Imam to erect a mosque in Brussels in 1925, and 200 English Mohammedans….“‘The Ahmadiyya sect is of particular interest, as it claims to win the Crescent Europe as well as the rest of the world…. Its present leader, Hazrat Mirza Bashir-ud-din Mahmud Ahmad[ra], writes: ‘The Ahmadiyya community is a model of purity and devotion. Our opponents themselves admit that the conversion to Ahmadiyya changes the affinity of the heart and gives strength to the martyrs.’“‘The Holy War has now turned into a contest of doctrines, thanks to bold aplomb, eloquence unconcerned with erudition, and enthusiastic publicity. (Press: five newspapers in India, two in Ceylon, one in Mauritius, a quarterly review in Chicago, and monthly in London and Woking.) The Ahmadiyya sect is growing day by day. […] It presents itself as a ‘middle term’ between orthodox Mohammedanism [sic., Islam] and the rationalism that has infiltrated the Islamic bloc through the school of Aligarh.“‘This Ahmadiyya movement is therefore essentially a response of Islam against the invasion of European civilization and the few successes of the Christian missionaries. It is an attempt to channel the spiritual and international aspirations of the Muslim world.“‘And we can optimistically conclude that while it has achieved worrying successes, it is a testament to the shock suffered by Islam.” (Journal des Missions Évangéliques, 1 January 1930, p. 56)

The ROR of June-1946 reports that B. Orchard gave a speech to the Qadiani-Ahmadi’s of Bombay about their musleh maud. He called MGA as the second coming of Krishna and Zoroaster. He also alleged that Ahmadiyya was growing in countries like England, America, France, all over Africa, Palestine, Arabia, Java, Burma and Malaya. He said that MGA was a manifestation of God’s attributes, he also alleges that the 2nd Khalifa is regularly receiving dreams, revelations and etc.

Via the ROR of Nov-1946, Ahmadiyya had spread to France and was successfully established.

Revue des Troupes Coloniales wrote:

“On the eastern coasts of Africa, the Arab Islamic influence does not seem to have taken a great leap, but the fact to note is the importance taken by Indian immigration. The current claims of the Indian colonies of British East Africa and South Africa show the interest of this question. Indian Islam presents itself in a very particular form, which results in the creation of heterodox sects, the most characteristic of which is that of the Ahmadiyya, founded in the Punjab at the beginning of the century by Mirza Ghulam Ahmed[as] and which makes an intriguing blend of the Bible, Gospels and Quran.” (Revue des Troupes Coloniales, 1 March 1947, p. 47)

“There is, between this text and the double eclipse, much more than a coincidence. I also learned that Hazrat Ahmad[as] unites in his person the characteristics of the true Messiah; since he was born in British India to a Muslim Persian family, he is Neha Kalank Avatar, Krishna and Buddha for the Hindus, Messiah Darbahmi for the Zoroastrians, Messiah for Christians, and Mahdi for Muslims. […]

“In addition, Hazrat [Ahmadas] had a run-in with Alexander Dowie, who gave himself to be Elie, founded Zion City next to Chicago and announced that God had sent him on earth to destroy Islamicism. Hazrat Ahmad[as] raised a defiance, thus Dowie died while being abandoned by his disciples and in a miserable state. I learned, moreover, that the Ahmadiyya Movement, founded by Hazrat Ahmad[as], currently has hundreds of missions in the world and groups of thousands of faithful, the marching wing of Islam. […] But in France, the Ahmadiyya movement did not yet exist.

“This is why Malik Ata-ur-Rahman has undertaken to spread the word on the banks of the Seine. It started with the leaflet with headed paper, a telephone number, and a conference at the George V Hotel.

“As a result of this preaching, I can say nothing, myself not being a prophet, but I repeat that, perhaps, Hazrat Ahmad’s passage in this world is the greatest event of modern times. […] There are words that we don’t hear, just like we don’t hear ultrasounds because the range is too high, however, they are not without impact on the souls, just like the ultrasounds on the bodies!” (Carrefour, 14 July 1948, p. 8)

In 1948, Hazrat Musleh-e-Maudra instructed Malik Ataur Rahman Sahib – a missionary serving in France at the time – to visit Belgium. He visited Brussels and Antwerp and was interviewed by several newspapers in Belgium, including Le Phare Dimanche. It states:

“Islam Invades Europe!

“Islam, a religion of continuous transformation, has always produced a number of prophets, some of them creating schisms and sects, which exist up to now; others have disappeared without leaving a trace.

“A few days ago, a little man, with intelligent eyes and a lowered gaze, presented himself as the representative of the ‘Messiah’ at the Phare Dimanche.

“According [to him], a Messiah has appeared in India (where he died in 1908) and has instructed his disciples to spread his message to the corners of the world. This is how, without the help of the sword, Muslims are trying to convert Christians to [the faith of] the Quran! This is, to say the least, a new and original [endeavour].

“According to this envoy (‘Amir’ of the Ahmadiyya Movement), the prophet Hazrat Ahmad[as] is the Messiah. It was prophesied that the Messiah would be of tanned complexion and would have straight hair (as did Hazrat Ahmad[as]). The prophecy says that he would have a twin sister; he would be born in a village named Kad’a; he would stammer slightly and would suffer from two ailments: All these signs were fulfilled in Hazrat Ahmad[as].

“He is ‘Krishna’ and ‘Buddha’ for the Hindus, ‘Mesio’ for the Zoroastrians, ‘Messiah’ for the Christians, and ‘Mahdi’ for the Muslims. How can one ever doubt this? How can one ever doubt the fulfilment of the prophecy that ‘the whole world, in the end, will accept Islam’?

“According to the ‘Amir’, the Ahmadiyya Movement has established communities everywhere in the world, even in the United States, the United Kingdom and France. He wants to establish one at least in Belgium.

“What else can [we] do but wish good luck to this man? Are not all beliefs worthy [of our] respect?” (Le Phare Dimanche, 19 December 1948)

In May of 2025 (17:21 time stamp), Ahmadi’s from France travelled to the UK to meet Mirza Masroor Ahmad, there are barely 10 in this photo, of which, the majority are Arabs with Visa problems in France. It was also revealed their convert goal was 5 for the year of 2024-2025 for the year of 2024-2025 in their local area (sector 78). Which proves that Ahmadiyya is dead in France.

In 2026, a team of Ahmadi’s from France met with Mirza Masroor Ahmad on “This week with Huzoor”.

In 2026 (Feb-20), on an episode of “This Week with Huzoor“, Mirza Masroor Ahmad met with some “Waqfe nau” Ahmadi’s who are living in France. Mirza Masroor Ahmad explains how an Ahmadi should brainwash a new convert. Mirza Masroor Ahmad infers that Ahmadi’s are lazy and only call new converts when they need a chanda payment (See the clip on TikTok and Twitter). Mirza Masroor Ahmad tells Ahmadi’s to become disingenuous friends with new converts. Mirza Masroor Ahmad reminds him to not sit around and speak Urdu in their presence either (this is so rude) and thus ignore them as such.
