MaulvI Razi alleges that “La Nabiyaa Badi” is incorrect commentary on “Khatamun Nabiyeen” (Nov-2025)

Intro
In Nov-2025, the Ahmadiyya Movement in the UK (AMAUK) told lots of lies as they continued to hide the true nature of their beliefs on prophethood and run their business model. On the panel were Maulvi Razi, Hadi Ali Chaudhary (from Canada via zoom), Mansoor Ahmad Zia, Fazl Rahman Nasir and the host is unnamed.

At 1:42:30, Maulvi Razi says that the argument “La Nabiya Badee” is wrong as commentary of “Khatam un Nabiyeen” (See the clip on TikTok and Twitter). Razi alleges that NO sahabi challenged Aiesha (ra) on this. Razi alleges Ijma-sukhuti (consensus via silence). However, in “Eik Ghalti Ka Izala”, MGA specifically used the argument of “La Nabiya Badee” (see page 3).

Is Mirza Ghulam Ahmad the “Khatam un Nabiyeen” for “Zilli-Nubuwwat”?

Intro
In Nov-2025, Qadiani-Ahmadi-Israeli TikToker Nur ul Haq (@Ahmadi_Muslim) aka Basel Khalifa (@basel.khalifa0) alleged that Mirza Ghulam Ahmad was the “Khatam un Nabiyeen” for “Zilli-Nubuwwat” (See the clip on TikTok and Twitter). This was on the live stream of Free Palestine and sister Meem.

However, it should be noted that Ahmadi’s believe that “Khatam un Nabiyeen” means one who does “Tasdiq” of the next prophet (naozobillah). Thus, Qadiani-Ahmadi-Israeli TikToker Nur ul Haq (@Ahmadi_Muslim) aka Basel Khalifa (basel.khalifa0) was indirectly alleging that MGA has already done Tasdiq of the next “Zilli-Nabi” (See 33:7, 33:8 in the Kadiani Koran). However, he didn’t give a proper reference to MGA, but we know, it is via the concept of the 3rd Messiah (See page 403 of the online English edition)(See RK-5, page 346)(Listen to Bro Imtiaz, 4:47:12 time stamp)(The Jalalee Nabi) in Ahmadiyya which Mirza Tahir Ahmad revitalized in 1984 when he moved to the UK on asylum (See also Tafseer-e-Sagheer on 3:82 and 33:7).
