Intro
Via the ROR of July-2005, a Qadiani-Ahmadi named Dr. Ibrahim Assad Odeh was visiting Egypt for a seminar on Science and Technology in 2004, and allegedly, as part of that trip, Dr. Ibrahim Assad Odeh decided to visit the Al-Azhar University and confront Muhammad Sayyid Tantawy (the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, a position he retained until his death in 2010) about the status of #Qadianis as non-Muslim’s via the Al-Azhar fatwa of 1984.
Allegedly, Dr. Ibrahim Assad Odeh met Muhammad Sayyid Tantawy in his chancellery on Dec-14-2004. Muhammad Sayyid Tantawy agreed to meet with an Ahamdi delegation in the future and to discuss the status of Ahmadi’s as non-Muslims. Accordingly, Dr. Ibrahim Assad Odeh got approval from the Ahmadiyya Movement and came back with a delegation that also included, Muhammad Sharif Odeh and Munir Edelbi, on Feb-8-2005, they met Muhammad Sayyid Tantawy. The Qadiani’s also allege to have met with Sheikh Zafzaf, they were told that Al-Azhar would take this under consideration, however, nothing ever came of it.

1984
In 1984, the famous Al-Azhar university issued a Fatwa of Kufr for all groups of Ahmadi’s – ahmadiyyafactcheckblog
In 1984, the famous Al-Azhar University issued a Fatwa of Kufr against the Qadiani-Ahmadi’s and the Lahori-Ahmadi’s, this was signed by the Grand Imam, Gad al-Haq Ali Gad al-Haq. They declared the Qadiani-Ahmadi’s as Kafir because of their belief in the continuation of prophethood. In terms of the Lahori-Ahmadi’s, they were also declared Kafir, however, this was based on their denial of the miraculous birth of Esa (as). This was published in the Muslim Digest of Oct/Nov/Dec of 1984. This seems to be a newspaper in South Africa. We are unsure how many Ahmadi’s were in South Africa in 1984. There was a huge case in terms of the Lahori-Ahmadi’s in this era, it seems like this is in relation to that incident. Again, we are unclear how and when any form of Ahmadiyya made it to South Africa. Check out our brother @browniesaadi on tik tok explaining the same herein. In 2005, an Ahmadi delegation went to Al-Azhar university to do tabligh and get funds for a mosque

IslamCity] FATWA BY AL-AZHAR CAIRO DECLARINGDECLARING QADIANIS AND AHMEDIS KAFIRS

Qadianis seek help from and shelter under Al-Azhar’s Fatwa to prove that they should not be called Kaafirs but deliberately dishonestly suppress and withhold the truth proves them damn liars and do not refer to Al-Azhar’s Fatwa declaring them Kaafirs which is reproduced below and Al-Azhar’s authority is more than mine and theirs to judge.
Fatwa is based on the Holy Quran, the Sunnah (utterances and actions of the Holy Prophet (Allahs peace on him of Islam) and Ijma (consensus of opinion among Muslims). These factors form the basis of Shariah, the Law of Islam.
Fatwa (Verdict by Islamic scholars) regarding the doctrine of Mirza Ghulam Ahmed of Qadian.
FATWA BY AL-AZHAR CAIRO
Fatwa issued by the Fatwa Department of the Al-Azhar University, Cairo in reply to the questions by the Egyptian Foreign Ministry . It was asked to give its opinion on:
- The Ahmedi sect according to the true teachings of Islam
- Mosques built by certain doubtful sects, for example, the Ahmedi sect ofPakistanwho established mosques for Muslims to pray.
- A request by the Ahmedi sect for financial help to set up a mosque inAmsterdam,Holland.
The Fatwa Department answered as follows:
The Fatwa Department of Al-Azhar is quite aware of the beliefs of the Ahmadiyya sect whose views are that Mirza Ghulam Ahmed imagined himself to be a Messenger of Allah (see Khutba II-Haamiya). He says: Do you not see that I am (a Messenger from Allah) then you reject me. What is the matter with you, O, ye rejecters? Further he says: You see how people are being converted to Christianity and how they become apostates from the religion of Allah then still you say that there had not now come a Messenger from Allah. What is wrong with you? How do ye judge? In another place he states (regarding himself): Then Allah showered bounty on this UMMAT (the Ummat of Islam) by sending the like of Jesus. Will anyone except the blind then reject him? In another place he says: Jesus was a sign to the children of Israel, and I am a sign to you, O, ye extravagant ones.!
Similarly, other statements are also to be found in other writings of this sect, e.g. in a circular issued by one of their leaders, which had been translated into Arabic by Syed Abdul Majeed and printed in Egypt. In it we find: It is impossible that the coming of Divine revelation should be closed in the face of men.
In that same circular we also find: The Mahdi and the Promised Messiah had both appeared in India in a place called Qadian. And thousands and thousands of his followers and apostles are to be found hearing Divine revelation. We know also that Mirza Ghulam Ahmed himself imagined that he was recipient of Divine revelation and that it was revealed to him that: I make you an Imaam over men. Such men shall assist you unto whom shall come Divine revelation.
Qadianis and Ahmedi Kaafirs not to be supported
There are many tracts to be mentioned, all of which are undoubtable signs of clear Kufr (disbelief), exit from the religion of Allah and having gone stray (from the right path).
From the foregoing and other tracts the Fatwa Department has become aware of the fact that the Ahmadiyya sect (a sect which is a branch of the math-hab of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad and Mirzas sect, the Qadianis are both Baatil sects, contrary in their beliefs and iebaadaaat to the beliefs and iebaadaaat of the true Muslims. This is chiefly because they claim that their leaders are the recipients of Divine revelation and that there are prophets and messengers among them, to whom Allah speaks in the way that He speaks to the prophets. This contradicts the Holy Quran and the Sunnah of our Holy Prophet Allahs peace on him. Therefore with these views they reject the verse: Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but he is the Apostle of God, and the Seal of the Prophets; and God has full knowledge of all things.
They also reject the tradition of the Holy Prophet (Allahs peace on him) which is reported by Abu Huraira in Sahih Bukhari: And verily there shall be no prophet after me.
Their belief is also against what the Prophet (Allahs peace on him) said according to Abu Huraira as reported in Sahih Bukhari: The parable of the other prophets and myself is that of a man who built a mansion excellently and beautiful . Only one place was left for one more brick. People walking round the mansion to admire it inquired: Why was not this one brick put in? Now I am the Seal (last) of the prophets.
In Sahih Muslim it is reported from Jaabir: I am in the place of that brick. I have come and the ring of prophets was completed. Apart from this there are many other authoritative reports to the effect that the Nubuwwat (prophethood) had come to a close with the coming and advent of our Holy Prophet Muhammad (Allahs blessings on him.)
This is the general consensus of opinion (Ijma) among Muslims and belief in it has become one of the necessities of faith in Islam. Whosoever rejects it becomes a Kaafiroutside the pale of Islam.
Compulsory to reject
Thus, as for this sect, it is not permissible to assist them in any way neither for the erection of a mosque nor for any other project. This is because their mosques are not founded except for the purpose of leading astray and swaying from the right path. They only erect their mosques in order to prey upon the ignorance of the youth who are unaware of their subtle methods, and lure them to their faith. Through these mosques they draw true Muslims and their innocent children into the dangers of their condemned beliefs while injecting into them the poison which cause them to swerve from the Siraatal Mustaqeem, the path of Allah, the All Powerful, the Praised.
On the contrary, it is compulsory for each and every Muslim all over the world, to boycott them economically, financially and socially and tread upon the necks of all misleading sects like these until they are forced into submission or perish and die out. With them should be done as was done with Haarith bin Saeed (who made similar claims as Mirza) during the reign of Abdul Malik bin Merwan. Certain people were deceived by his claims and followed him until he was hunted down and fell into the hands of Abdul Malik who killed him. Today there is no sign of this sect left on the earth.
In the same way there arose during the early period of the Abbasids one called Ishaq bin Ag-ras with his extravagant claims. A certain group of people followed him, too. He, too was killed and in that way the fitnah started by him was stopped.
The mosques of these Ahmadis are like the mosque which was built by the hypocrites (for evil purposes) during the time of the Holy Prophet (Allahs blessings on him). Their aim in actual fact was to divide the Muslims and mislead them. Allah thus prohibited the Holy Prophet (Allahs blessings on him) from saying the prayers in them, clarified their intentions to him:
And there are those who put up a mosque by way of mischief and
infidelityto disunite the believers and in preparation for one
who warred against Allah and His Apostle aforetime. They will
indeed swear that their intentions are nothing but good; but Allah
doth declare that they are certainly liars.
Never stand thou forth therein. There is a mosque whose foundation
was laid from the first day on piety; it is more worthy of thy standing
forth (for prayer) therein. Surah Toubah, 9-V. 107108.
Shariat
Inspite of the fact that a Muslim is allowed to say his prayer in any clean spot anywhere on the earth, as a result of the Hadith: the whole earth has been made a mosque and clean for me, it is not permissible to say prayers in the mosques of sects like these. The reason for this is that these people take their mosques as a means towards spreading, expounding and popularizing the beliefs of their sect. Moreover (should we say our prayers there) we are in fact exposing our children and the general public to the dangers of their poison and the dangerous evil of accepting their math-hab. What an evil and corruption that will be. The law of Shariat is that one should rather ward off and avoid evil and corruption than to try afterwards to mend and repair that which had been corrupted and damaged.

{Invite (mankind, O Muhammad ) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Inspiration and the Qur’an) and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.}
(Holy Quran-16:125)
{And who is better in speech than he who [says: “My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness),” and then stands straight (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allah’s (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: “I am one of the Muslims.”} (Holy Quran-41:33)
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “By Allah, if Allah guides one person by you, it is better for you than the best types of camels.” [al-Bukhaaree, Muslim]
The prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) also said, “Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to the reward of the one who follows him, without the reward of either of them being lessened at all.”
[Muslim, Ahmad, Aboo Daawood, an-Nasaa’ee, at-Tirmidhee, Ibn Maajah]
