Intro
Initially, in the 1878-1882 era, via Barahin-i-Ahmadiyya Vol. 3 (see page 211 online english edition), MGA scoffed at the idea of God having sons and etc. In 1886, in Surma Chashma Arya, MGA claimed that Muhammad (saw) was a manifestation of God. In the 1886-1890 era, MGA was claiming that his Musleh Maud (promised son) arrival would as-if God had arrived. In 1891, after the main book of the Bahai’s was published (Kitab al aqdis), MGA seems to have copied and began using numerical values to validate his claims. MGA called himself the son of God in a weird way. MGA spoke of himself in some type of weird metaphoric trinity. It should also be noted that Mirza Ghulam Ahmad’s GOD prayed, ate, fasted and is just like humans. In 1892, MGA had his famous dream wherein he thought himself to be God (see at the 5:48 mark). It should also be noted that in Bahaism, Jihad was also banned, MGA seems to have copied. MGA also used the argument from Bahaism about the pen being more mighty than the sword.
In 1904, the Al-Hakam claimed that Bahaullah claimed to be the Messiah. The Al-Hakam presented this to their team, however, they didn’t answer question. This was in terms of prophets living more than 23 years. The questioner asked the editors as to why Bahaullah lived so long after his claim. Ahmadi editors claim that someone has to keep their claims active for 23 years for it to be valid. In Lecture Lahore, MGA and his team mentioned how while going through the 27th August, 1904, edition of Paisa Akhbar, I learned that a gentleman named Hakim Mirza Mahmood Ahmad Irani, who is a follower of someone claiming to be the Messiah, is presently in Lahore and desires to have a Mubahala [prayer-duel] with me. It should also be noted that Mirza Ghulam Ahmad’s GOD prayed, ate, fasted and is just like humans. #ahmadis even argued that the 23 year prophethood challenge doesn’t apply to Bahaullah because he claimed godhood (1904).
In the 1907 era (See Haqiqatul Wahy), MGA was claiming that his GOD was human and ate, fasted and etc. MGA took it a step further and claimed to receive a revelation wherein his God called him his son. This could also be a rip-off of Bahaism. In the same book (Haqiqatul Wahy) also claimed to be the Brahman Avatar in a weird revelation. MGA and his team of writers mentioned how this was all metaphorical, just like MGA’s prophethood. Furthermore, it should be noted that MGA called himself the baruz of God (naozobillah), just like he had claimed to be the baruz (second manifestation) of Muhammad (saw) (astagfarullah). MGA also claimed to have been given the highest throne of them all. This was all in the era of 1906-1907.
The ROR (english)(1923–1927) also discussed the Bahai’s (see the refs in the below). In the ROR of Feb-1925, the Ahmadiyya Movement was explained by Britishers as comparable to Bahaism. Check out Shams ud Din’s evaluation of Mirza Basheer ud Din and Bahaullah.
Finally, in the 1990’s a bunch of Ahmadi’s left Ahmadiyya and became Bahai. Also in the 90’s, Mirza Tahir Ahmad said that the Jews created the Bahai’s. We have found a video of Mirza Tahir Ahmad wherein he claims that the Bahai’s were invented by the Jews. Mirza Tahir Ahmad claims to have evidence too. This is a major conspiracy theory. When we say the same about Ahmadiyya, they cry persecution.
It should be noted that Bahai’s also deny the miraculous birth of Eisa (As) and make similar arguments in this vein (3:25 time stamp). For example, they argued that Adam (as) was born without parents, so is he better than Eisa (As)? Bahai’s also argue that since John the Baptist (Yahya a.s.) was the spiritual second coming of Elijah (as), MGA used that argument too (17:25 timestamp).
