In the Moslem World magazine of Jan-1933 (page 90) you will find the famous short paragraph on “Islam in Pittsburgh”. This paragraph is written by “The United Presbyterian” (newspaper). One of the book sellers/peddlers who work with this newspaper has recently observed a Muslim missionary looking for converts among the negroes of Pittsburgh and pointing at Christianity and calling out their use of slavery. Also pointing out that in Islam, all are brothers. They also mention how these “Muslims in Pittsburgh” believe that Jesus died in India.

In July of 1933, The Moslem World Magazine published an article on “American Negro Mohammedans,”[See no. 3 (1933): 272-284 by Pierre Crabites], this seems to be a story about some American Negroes that moved to Egypt, the Ahmadiyya Movement is not mentioned at all.

He is mentioned in the ROR of Aug-1933, as well as his missionary work in America. He seems to have just returned from a preaching tour of Michigan, wherein he tried to convert Syrian Muslims to Ahmadiyya and failed. He also travelled to Indianapolis and Detroit. He alleges to have converted 60 people to Ahmadiyya in 1933. “The Manager” at the Islamic Center wrote a report on Islam in the Americas and mentioned the Ahmadiyya mission in Chicago, Cincinatti and Pittsburgh.

In January of 1934, Yusuf Khan was published in the Cleveland Call and Post, January 6, 1934, 4;, via Bowen) and talked about Ahmadiyya missions in Pittsburgh and Braddock. Under the heading “Activities of The Braddock Mosque” by Abdullah Easa. Sheikh M. Omar, Ahmad Omar and Sheikh Akmal are also mentioned and gave speeches. They were taking new converts on Dec-25-1933 in 135 Linden Ave, Duquesne in Pittsburgh, PA. The first woman to join up was Mrs. Coleman, then Daniel Moore then Bro Coleman. At the end, Sheikh Akmal appointed Bro M. Rafeek as President and Bro Mataza as Vice President.

In May-1934, via the Cleveland Call and Post of Sat, May 12, 1934 ·Page 2, there is a report of Ahmadiyya activity at the Pittsburgh Mosque by Sheikh Saadi Malik.

The leaders of Vearianue [sic], or what is better known as Imams, gathered [in Pittsburgh] and formed a council, according to the Islamic teaching. We discharged the missionary, M.Y. Khan because of his failure to carry the work on in the right way. We, the members have been successful in making connection with the Moslem League, that we may be known throughout all the Moslem World. Our lecturer will cost just about half what it has been costing. The new missionary will be located at 1800 Center Ave, Pittsburgh. His name is Abdul Mohammed Ibn Akbar.

“Mahomet Missioner Comes to Convert – Antithesis of Billy Sunday to ‘Evangelize’ America

“Boy, page Billy Sunday. Tell him there’s a competitor of his’n in the hoosegow. His name is Mufti Mohammed Sadiq, American missionary of the Prophet Mohammed, and he aims to convert Americans…

“‘When I am permitted to land,’ said Sadiq today, ‘I am going to New York to establish a center there and … to start the Ahmadi movement.’ Ahmadism, Sadiq explained, is an advanced form of Mohammedanism.”

“My Message to the Moslems,” Cleveland Call and Post, January 6, 1934, 4;

The Cleveland Call and Post of Sat, Jan 27, 1934 ·Page 4 mentions almost all the same data as
The Cleveland Call and Post, January 6, 1934, 4;, via Bowen).

In Apr-1934, via “The Plain Dealer” of Mon, Apr 23, 1934 ·Page 5 mentions Muhammad Yusuf Khan. This is about the Cleveland Mosque. There are allegedly 400 members of the Cleveland Mosque. Muhammad Yusuf Khan is mentioned as the “head man” of the Ahmadia Moslems and he says that this mosque has left Islam and he will try to bring them back. The majority of the membership is Negro, with a few Indians and a few Arabs. This Cleveland Mosque is on the 3rd floor of a building at 5311 Woodland Ave, Cleveland and is simply called “Mosque”. Ahmadia people expect more prophets in opposition to Islam and deny holy wars. Ahmadi’s also allegedly don’t believe in polygamy. Khan is allegedly teaching the Quran, Arabic names have also been given out to new converts. Khan alleges to have 8 converts who have learned Arabic good enough to become Sheikh’s (missionaries) and he has already did that with the previous 22 students. Allegedly, the Pittsburgh Mosque is the same size as the Cleveland Mosque. Khan told the newspaper that there are 16 Ahmadi Mosques in the USA. Allegedly, the Cincinatti Mosque has 150 members, however, most locations have less than 100 members. There are other Ahmadiyya temples (mosques) in Chicago, Akron, Colombus, Dayton, Youngstown, Steubenville, Washington, Philadelphia, Indianapolis, Detroit, Braddock, Homestead and Duquesne, PA. Khan hopes to open a mosque in NY next year. The Cleveland Mosque was opened in 1932. Khan has been splitting his time between Pittsburgh and Cleveland. Khan told the newspaper that he came to the USA in 1921 as a chemistry student.

“The Plain Dealer” of Mon, Apr 23, 1934 ·Page 5

The Moslem Sunrise of Nov-1934 didn’t give any locations of Ahmadiyya centers in the USA, it was a regular feature of the magazine to list locations in the USA and abroad. However, just 10 month earlier, the Moslem Sunrise of Jan-1934, the Pittsburg branch of pseudo-Ahmadi’s was mentioned and with Muhammad Yusuf Khan as in-charge and with the famous 2222 Webster Ave, Pittsburgh, PA as the location of the mission house. In the very next issue of the Moslem Sunrise (March-1935), a new Pittsburgh location is given, 2008 Wylie Ave, Pittsburgh, PA. This evidence proves that the Ahmadiyya schism did in-fact happen in Pittsburgh in the late summer of 1934. The Moslem Sunrise of Nov-1934 has press notices from Aug-1934 which talk about the new Ahmadiyya Mosque/Temple which opened on Wabash Ave, however, this location was still a private residence, not a purpose-built mosque. Charles Weller was there at the opening ceremony too. Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali alleges that there are 6000 Moslems in Chicago, however, he doesn’t say as to how many are Qadiani’s. Brother Omar was there too. Dr. Harlan Tarbell the scammer/magician was there too.

In Apr-1934, via the Cleveland Call and Post of Sat, Apr 07, 1934 ·Page 2, there is a photo of M. Yusuf Khan. This is about the Cleveland Mosque. The Ahmadiyya regional headquarter has been changed from Pittsburgh to 5311 Woodland Ave in Cleveland. The headquarters was in Pittsburgh for 4 years. Yusuf Khan alleges to have faced the bitterest opposition vs. Ahmadiyya. Yusuf Khan alleges that he has already created 11 men and 1 woman to go out and to tabligh. On March-29, the Moslems of Pittsburgh gave Yusuf Khan a farewell party (he was going to India on a trade run) wherein 300 people showed up. Shaikh Nasir Ahmad was there as well as well as Shaikh Abdul Wahab, Shaikh Abid Haque, Shaikh Saeed Akmal and Shaikh Abdul Farook. Shaikh Abdul Farook was made in-charge, with full authority in Pittsburgh. Yusuf Khan says that anyone who doesn’t pay their chanda for 3 months will be removed from the membership. There is another report in this newspaper from the “Mother Mosque”, during the week of March-25-1934, wherein it is stated that Rahmat Mahmood Sheikh Farook and Dr. Khan held a meeting. Eid was also held. Shaikh Nasir Ahmad from the Cleveland Mosque were also there. Sheikh Saeed Akmal from Braddock, Pittsburgh was also there. Shaikh Nasir Ahmad will be around and in-charge in Cleveland, signed off by Shaikh Saadi Malik.

In Jan of 1935, and from the University of Algiers, a man named G.H. Bousquet wrote a piece in the Moslem World Magazine of Jan-1935, pages 40-44, “Moslem Religious Influences in the United States”. In this essay he mentioned Bahaism in America and its successes as well as the famous Moorish Temple by Noble Drew Ali. G.H. Bousquet also mentioned how Ahmadiyya missionaries were operating in the 1930’s. G.H. Bousquet alleges that in 1933, there were 6 Ahmadiyya centers, (Chicago, Pittsburgh, Cincinatti, Indianapolis, Detroit, Kansas City). G.H. Bousquet mentions how Mufti Muhammad Sadiq started the Moslem Sunrise magazine and how it was stopped in 1924 and was re-started in 1930 by Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali, and he is operating out of State Street in Chicago. G.H. Bousquet surmises that that there are barely a few thousand Ahmadi’s in the USA, of which the vast majority on Negroes. G.H. Bousquet perfectly explains how Ahmadi’s believe that Mirza Ghulam Ahmad is the last prophet. G.H. Bousquet calls Ahmadiyya as disingenuous and a heretical cult which denies that Muhammad (saw) is the final prophet.

In the Moslem Sunrise of March-1935, Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali mentions 8 missions of the Ahmadiyya Movement in the USA. The first being in Chicago. The second being at 1419 Roosevelt Ave Indianapolis, IN. The third at 913 Woodland Ave, Kansas City (MO). The 4th at 537 Hendrie St. Detroit (MI). The 5th at 2008 Wylie Ave, Pittsburgh, (PA).

1937

In the Aug-1937 edition of the Moslem Sunrise, Titus Smith (aka Noorul Islam) wrote an essay entitled, “Activities of Ahmadiyya Moslem Mosque in Chicago”. He explains how most Ahmadi’s in Chicago are new members, this seems to be referring to the schism which caused lots of African-American’s to leave Ahmadiyya and search for an alternative cult which mixed the Bible with the Quran. He also mentions how Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali had been gone for almost a year and returned to Chicago on Dec-10-1936. Titus Smith (aka Noorul Islam) also mentions how Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali brought his wife and 9-year old daughter. Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali’s wife was pregnant when they arrived and the baby came soon thereafter, most likely Jan. of 1937. Moreover, Titus Smith (aka Noorul Islam) alleges that meetings are held 4 times a week, Juma is held every Friday, members are meeting for congregation prayers only 3 times a week, classes on Islam are held simultaneously. Similar activities are held in Ahmadiyya centers in Kansas City, Indianapolis, Detroit, Cleveland and Pittsburgh.

1938

Via the Moslem Sunrise of Feb-1938, allegedly, “Prophet’s Day” was held on Oct-31, 1937 in Chicago by Ahmadi’s (this essay is by Nina Stauffer). It is also alleged that similar “Prophet’s Day” events were held at other Ahmadiyya centers in Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Indianapolis and Kansas City. Nina Stauffer alleges that this was held at the Ahmadiyya Mosque/temple on Wabash Ave with Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali as the chairman. A Syrian Muslim (not an Ahmadi), Mr. Saleem Nimar recited the Quran. Omar Khan (previously written as Brother Omar) was the first speaker and was called the “President” of the Ahmadi’s in Chicago. Thereafter, Omar Cleveland (white man) gave a lecture. Dr. Tarbell was there too.

In the Moslem Sunrise of May-1938, a convert to Qadianism (Titus Smith aka Noorul Islam) reports that Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali lead the Eid prayer on Feb-11-1938 at the famous Qadiani temple/house/prayer center in Chicago on Wabash (it’s unclear which location in Chicago, they had two). Similar congregations are alleged in Kansas City, Indianapolis, Detroit, Cleveland and Pittsburgh. A woman named Catherin Uber read a poem. Two converts, Brother Omar Khan and Brother Noorudin also gave speeches. Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali has also changed the 2nd location of Ahmadiyya, the mailing address of the Moslem Sunrise from 56 East Congress St, Suite 1307 to now Suite 1102, it seems like the same building but a different office. In Nov-1941 (via Moslem Sunrise), Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali moved to 220 South State St., Suite 1010, this was his new mailing address and office it seems. The 220 South State St. mailing address remained until the fourth quarter of 1949 (see Moslem Sunrise) at which point, there was never a location in Chicago ever given again by the Ahmadiyya Movement until the 3rd Quarter of 1952 (see Moslem Sunrise), which was the famous mosque/temple on Wabash Ave in Chicago. This location was demolished by the Ahmadiyya Movement and rebuilt in the 1990’s as a purpose-built mosque.

1939

In the Moslem Sunrise of July-1939, Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali only gives one address for Ahmadiyya in America, 56 Congress St, Suite 1102, Chicago, Il. A man named H.J. Young has an essay in the Moslem Sunrise of July-1939. In this essay he talks about the work of Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali in Chicago. Young mentions how from 4-30-1939 thru May-7th-1939 (about 8 days), and in the famous huge auditorium building. Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali gave a speech on “The Palestine Problems”, “The New World Order” and “The Unknown Life of Jesus”. This series of lectures concluded on May-14-1939 (seems like a total of 15 days). Also in the Moslem Sunrise of July-1939, Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali was in Pittsburgh, PA and lecturing at his mission’s address: 6311 Frankstown Avenue. Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali alleges to have missions in Chicago, Cleveland, Indianapolis, Detroit, Kansas City, Mo., Washington, PA., he has proselyted among white and black. Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali told the Pittsburgh Courier, “The whites tell me to leave the blacks alone”, “and the blacks tell me not to take my message to the whites”, Sufi says he ends up bringing his message to both.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________1940

Via the Moslem Sunrise of First Quarter-1940, Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali only gives one address for Ahmadiyya in America, 56 Congress St, Suite 1102, Chicago, Il. On Dec-29-1939, Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali was in Logan, West Virginia and looking to speak to the community of Syrian Muslims (about 50) who were working therein. He stayed until roughly Jan-4-1940. Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali was staying at the Aracome Hotel and was giving lectures therein. A letter to the 2nd Qadiani Khalifa is also given in congratulations for his 25 years of Khilafat. Timothy Titus Smith (aka Nurool-Islam) gives a report of the “Activities of the Ahmadiyya Moslem Mosque Chicago”. Ramadhan started on Oct-13-1939 and allegedly, Sufi Muti-ur-Rahman Bengali was leading Tarawih prayers for the first 10 days, however, he became ill and someone else led the congregation.
