Intro
In 1926, via the famous Muslim World Magazine, a woman named Mary Caroline Holmes wrote about the failures of Ahmadiyya in America.

Mary Caroline Holmes explained how MGA claimed to be Krishna, the Marham-i-Eisa medicine and how the Jesus in India (Kashmir) theory. She discusses the Lahori-Ahmadi mission in the UK (at Woking) and the Lahori-Ahmadi mosque-temple in Berlin, Germany.

Mary Caroline Holmes mentions the famous “Highland Park Mosque” and how Mufti Muhammad Sadiq was the reason why it failed, since he poisoned the Muslims of Highland Park and Detroit with Qadiani beliefs, which were the polar opposite of Islam. She mentions how Mufti Muhammad Sadiq was run out of Highland Park and how he moved back to Chicago and had lots of money and bought a house which he made into “Al-Masjid”. She curiously mentions how the adhan is not recited by a man, the Qadiani-Ahmadi’s in 1926 were using a phonograph for the adhan.

Mary Caroline Holmes alleges that only negroes have converted to Ahmadiyya, 900 of them and that the newspaper “The Moslem Sunrise” has ceased to exist. She says that Mohammad Yusuf Khan is working as the “Missionary-in-Charge”. She claims that a few negroes are converting to Islam as a result of their persecution by whites in America.
