INTRODUCTION
For
the past 14 centuries the belief of Finality of Prophet hood has been
unanimously accepted amongst the Muslims. This belief is the core
foundation of Islam and is the sign of unity and spirit in the Muslim
Ummah.
Allah Ta'ala made Adam (Alayhissalam) the first Prophet
and appointed His beloved Muhammad (Sallalah-u-alayhi-wasallam) to be
the last and and blessed him and only him with the honour of being the
Final Prophet. The Prophet Muhammad (Sallalah-u-alayhi-wasallam) in his
final sermon in the presence of 150,000 Sahabah announced the completion
of the religion of Islam.
Now, no Prophet of any kind will be
born after the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallalah-u-alayhi-wasallam). The
Qur'an is the final book from Allah Ta'ala, this Shariah is the last
guidance for the Muslims and this Ummah is the last Ummah.
The
belief of finality of Prophethood is so clear that Allah Ta'ala
declared it in about 100 verses and the final Prophet Muhammad
(Sallalah-u-alayhi-wasallam) himself explained it in 200 ahadeeth. The
Prophet Muhammad (Sallalah-u-alayhi-wasallam) whilst announcing the end
of Prophethood he also warned the Muslims Ummah about the appearnce of
false prophets and labelled them as Kadhab (Liars) and Dajjals
(deceivers). Therefore according to his prophecy in the past 1400 years
false claimants like Musailama Kadhab, Aswad Anasi until Musailama
Qadiyan tried to deceive the Muslims in the name of Islam but in every
instance Allah Ta'ala raised individuals and groups to protect the
belief of finality of Prophethood. These individuals and groups
presented their lives for the defence of this belief and not only
educated the Muslim Ummah about their disbelief but saved them from
going astray.
During the khilafah of Abu Bakr
Siddique (Radhiyallahu-Anhu) Musailama Kadhab laid a false claim of
Prophethood. The Sahabah presented their lives in the battle of Yamama
to seize this fitna. Amongst them were Huffaz, Qaris and Badri Sahabah
(who took part in the battle of Badr). In this manner this blessed jamat
presented their lives but did not let the flag of finality of
Prophethood fall. When Musailama of Qadiyan Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiyani
(1840-1908) made a false claim of Prophethood, the Ulama fulfilled their
role and saved the Muslims form disbelief and issued the fatwa of Kufr
for Mirza Qadyani and his followers.
When the
activities of Qadiyanis increased in Pakistan the Muslims appealed to
the government to declare the Qadiyanis as Non-Muslims. In 1953 the
movement in defence of the belief of finality of Prophethood began. The
people in power opened fire at them which resulted in the martyrdom of
12,000 Muslims according to one estimate.
In
1974 the Qadiyanis attacked Muslims students with batons at the Channab
Nagar railway station (formerly Rabwa) that resulted in a wide spread
movement within the country following which on 7th of September 1974 the
Pakistani Parliament declared Qadiyanis to be a Non-Muslim minority in
the constitution. In this course in 1984 the "Qadiyani Ordinance" was
implemented to prevent anti-islamic activities which caused the fourth
leader of the Qadiyani cult, Mirza Tahir to flee Pakistan and take
refuge in London.
The Qadiyani group established its headquarters
in London and began spreading their heretic beliefs across the
worldwide newspapers, journals, publications and electronic media in the
name of Islam which caused distress amongst Muslims. Therefore it was
necessary for the Muslims to educate the Muslim Ummah to disassociate
Qadiyani beliefs from Islam.
"The Seal of the Prophets."
O people ! Muhammad has no sons
among ye men, but verily, He is the Apostle of God and the Last in the
line of Prophets (Khatam-un-Nabiyeen). And God is Aware of everything."
(Surah Al Ahzab 33:40)
முஹம்மது(ஸல்)
உங்கள் ஆடவர்களில் எவர் ஒருவருக்கும் தந்தையாக இருக்கவில்லை ஆனால் அவரோ
அல்லாஹ்வின் தூதராகவும், நபிமார்களுக்கெல்லாம் இறுதி (முத்திரை)யாகவும்
இருக்கின்றார் மேலும் அல்லாஹ் எல்லாப் பொருள்கள் பற்றியும் நன்கறிந்தவன்.(Surah Al Ahzab 33:40)
"Obey
Allah and obey the
Prophet."

நம்பிக்கை கொண்டவர்களே! அல்லாஹ்வுக்கு கீழ்படியுங்கள்; இன்னும் (அல்லாஹ்வின்) தூதருக்கும், AL-QURAN 4:59
Prophet Muhammad's Last Sermon
Date delivered: 632 A.C., 9th day of Dhul al Hijjah, 10 A.H. in the
'Uranah valley of Mount Arafat.
After praising, and thanking
God, he said: "O People, listen well to my words, for I do not know
whether, after this year, I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore
listen to what I am saying to you very carefully and TAKE THESE WORDS TO THOSE WHO COULD NOT BE PRESENT HERE TODAY.
O People, just as you regard this month, this day, this city as Sacred,
so regard the life and property of every Muslim as a sacred trust.
Return the goods entrusted to you to their rightful owners. Treat others
justly so that no one would be unjust to you. Remember that you will
indeed meet your LORD, and that HE will indeed reckon your deeds. God
has forbidden you to take usury (riba), therefore all riba obligation
shall henceforth be waived. Your capital , however, is yours to keep.
You will neither inflict nor suffer inequity. God has judged that there
shall be no riba and that all the riba due to `Abbas ibn `Abd al
Muttalib shall henceforth be waived.
Every right arising out
of homicide in pre-Islamic days is henceforth waived and the first such
right that I waive is that arising from the murder of Rabi`ah ibn al
Harith ibn `Abd al Muttalib.
O Men, the Unbelievers indulge
in tampering with the calendar in order to make permissible that which
God forbade, and to forbid that which God has made permissible. With God
the months are twelve in number. Four of them are sacred, three of
these are successive and one occurs singly between the months of Jumada
and Sha`ban. Beware of the devil, for the safety of your religion. He
has lost all hope that he will ever be able to lead you astray in big
things, so beware of following him in small things.
O People,
it is true that you have certain rights over your women, but they also
have rights over you. Remember that you have taken them as your wives
only under God's trust and with His permission. If they abide by your
right then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed in kindness.
Treat your women well and be kind to them, for they are your partners
and committed helpers. It is your right and they do not make friends
with anyone of whom you do not approve, as well as never to be
unchaste...
O People, listen to me in earnest, worship God
(The One Creator of the Universe), perform your five daily prayers
(Salah), fast during the month of Ramadan, and give your financial
obligation (zakah) of your wealth. Perform Hajj if you can afford to.
All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a
non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white
has no superiority over a black nor a black has any superiority over
white except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is a
brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood.
Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim which belongs to a fellow
Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly. Do not, therefore, do
injustice to yourselves.
Remember, one day you will appear
before God (The Creator) and you will answer for your deeds. So beware,
do not stray from the path of righteousness after I am gone.
O People, NO PROPHET OR MESSENGER WILL COME AFTER ME AND NO NEW FAITH WILL BE BORN. Reason
well, therefore, O People, and understand words which I convey to you. I
am leaving you with the Book of God (the QUR'AN*) and my SUNNAH (the
life style and the behavioral mode of the Prophet), if you follow them
you will never go astray.
All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to others and those to others again;
and may the last ones understand my words better than those who listen
to me directly. Be my witness O God, that I have conveyed your message
to your people.
*The Qur'an: Revealed to Prophet Muhammad during the period from 610-632 AC. The first five verses revealed are:
(1) Read in the name of your Lord, Who created.
(யாவற்றையும்) படைத்த உம்முடைய இறைவனின் திருநாமத்தைக் கொண்டு ஓதுவீராக.
(2) Created man out of a clot that clings (in the womb). ´அலக்´ என்ற நிலையிலிருந்து மனிதனை படைத்தான்.
(3) Read and your Lord is the Most Bountiful.
ஓதுவீராக: உம் இறைவன் மாபெரும் கொடையாளி.
(4) Who taught by the pen.
அவனே எழுது கோலைக் கொண்டு கற்றுக் கொடுத்தான்.
(5) Taught man that which he knew not.
மனிதனுக்கு அவன் அறியாதவற்றையெல்லாம் கற்றுக் கொடுத்தான்.
The Last Sermon Confirms the
Main Points from the Quran
by Shahid Athar, M. D.
"Oh Prophet, We have sent you as a witness, news bearer and a warner
and as someone who invites people to God by His permission and a shining
Lamp" (33:45-46).
Prophet Muhanimad (PBUH) who was sent to
mankind as a news bearer and a wamer for he spoke the truth and did not
invent something of his own. The purpose of this article is to confirm
the statements made by Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) during his farewell
address during the last pilgrimage (10 AH).
After praising
and thanking God, the Messenger said, "Oh people, listen to my words
carefully for I know not whether I will meet you on such an occasion
again."
TRUST AND ACCOUNTABILITY
Sermon: "Oh
people, just as you regard this month, this day, this city as sacred, so
regard the life and property of every Muslim as a sacred trust.
Remember that you will indeed appear before God and answer for your
actions."
Quran: "If anyone killed a person unless it is for a
murder or spreading mischief on earth it would be as it he killed the
whole mankind, and if anyone who saved a life, it would be as if he
saved the life of whole mankind" (5:32). "Then on that day not a soul
will be wronged in the least and you shall but be prepaid in the needs
of your past deeds" (36:54).
FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS
Sermon: "Return the things kept with you as trust (amanah) to their rightful owners."
Quran: "If one of you entrusts (something) the one who has been
entrusted with it should hand over his security and he should heed God
and not hide any testimony. Anyone who hides it-has a sinfull heart"
(2:283).
INTEREST (RIBAH)
Sermon: "All dues of
interest shall stand cancelled and you will have only your capital back.
Allah has forbidden interest, and I cancel the dues of interest payable
to may uncle Abbas ibn Abdul Muttalib."
Quran: "You who
believe fear God and write off anything that remains outstanding from
lending at interest if you are (true) God and His Messenger If you
repent you may retail your principal do not wrong and you will not be
wronged" (2:278).
TREATMENT OF WIFE (SPOUSE)
Sermon: "Oh people, your wives have a certain right over you and you
have a certain right over them. Treat them well and be kind to them for
they are your committed partners and commited helpers.
Quran:
"Provide for them the rich according to his income and the poor
according to his means, a provision according to the custom. This is an
obligation for those who act kindly" (2:236). "Treat them politely even
if you dislike them,. Perhaps you dislike something in which God has
placed much good" (4:19).
WARNING ABOUT SATAN
Sermon: "Beware of Satan, he is desperate to divert you from the worship
of God so beware of him in matters of your way of life."
Quran: "Verily Satan is an enemy to you so treat him as an enemy. He
only invites his followers that they may become companions of the
blazing fire" (35:6).
BROTHERHOOD
Sermon: "Oh you
people listen carefully. All the believers are brothers. You are not
allowed to the things belonging to another Muslim unless he give it to
you willingly."
Quran: "Believers are but brothers so set
things right between your brothers and fear God so that you may find
mercy" (49: 1 0).
SUPERIORITY IS ONLY IN PIETY AND SUBMISSION
Sermon: "Oh people, no one is higher than the other unless he is higher
in obedience to God. No Arab is superior to a non-Arab except in
piety."
Quran:"The most honored among you in the sight of God
is (he who is) the most righteous of you and God has full knowledge and
is will acquainted (with all things)" (49:134). "Who can be better in
religion than he who submits his whose self to God, does good and
follows the ways of abraham for God did take Abraham for a friend"
(4:125).
IN ORDER TO BE SUCCESSFUL WE MUST OBEY BOTH GOD AND HIS MESSENGER
Sermon: "Oh people, reflect on my words. I leave behind me two things,
the Quran and my example and if you follow these, you will not fail."
Quran: "And obey God and the Messenger so that you may receive mercy" (3:132).
OBSERVE THE PILLARS OF ISLAM
Sermon: "Listen to me carefully. Worship God and offer prescribed
prayer, observe fasting in the month of Ramadan and pay the poor-due."
Quran: "And establish the prescribed prayer, practice regular charity
and bow down with those who bow down" (2:43). "Oh you who believe,
fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before you
that you may learn self-restraint" (2:183).
DUTIES REGARDING THOSE WORKING UNDER US
Sermon: "Oh people, be mindful of those who work under you. Feed and clothe them as you feed and clothe yourselves."
Quran: "Act kindly just as God treated you kindly" (28:77). "God has
favored some of you over their provisions to those whom their right hand
controls so that they become equal (partners) in it. Would they thus
disclaim God's favor" (16:71).
MUHAMMAD WAS THE LAST PROPHET
Sermon: "Oh people, no prophet or messenger will come after me and no new faith will emerge."
Quran: "Muhammad is not the father of any of you men but he is God's Messenger and the Seal of Prophets. God is aware of everything" (33:40).
OUR DUTY IS TO SPREAD THE MESSAGE OF THE PROPHET (QURAN)
Sermon: "All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to others and those to others again (and people did).
Quran: "Oh Messenger, communicate whatever has been sent down to you by
your Lord. If you do not do so, you will not have conveyed his message"
(5:67).
Sermon: Have I conveyed the Message of God to you?
asked the Prophet facing towards the heavens. The audience answered in
one voice, "You have, God is the witness."
Quran: As the
Messenger finished the following revelation came to him, "Today I have
perfected your religion for you, completed my favors upon you and have
chosen for you Islam as the way of life for you" (5:3).
"There
will be thirty liars in my Ummah, each of them claiming to be a
Prophet, but I am the Khatam-un-Nabiyeen, there is no Prophet after me."(Sunan Abu Daud, Kitab al-Fitan)
Holy
Prophet Mohammed (pbuh) used the word Khatam-un-Nabiyeen for Himself
and then qualified the meaning of this word by adding that "there is no
Prophet after me." Most certainly He knew that there will be some sick
minded people in his ummah who will make all sorts of far flung
distorted meanings. He was conferred with the unique honor of:
"The Seal of the Prophets."

QADIANI MOVEMENT AND BRITISH COLONIALIST
Question About Qadiani:
If someone is not a qadiani but knows
that they believe in a false prophet and accepts qadianis as a madhab
in Islam, are they out of Islam? I believe that they are out of Islam,
and I am acting on that belief in my conduct towards such people.
Answer:
Praise be to Allaah.
-Definition:
Qadianiyyah
is a movement that started in 1900 CE as a plot by the British
colonialists in the Indian subcontinent, with the aim of diverting
Muslims away from their religion and from the obligation of jihaad in
particular, so that they would not oppose colonialism in the name of
Islam. The mouthpiece of this movement is the magazine Majallat
Al-Adyaan (Magazine if Religions) which was published in English.
- Foundation and prominent personalities:
Mirza
Ghulam Ahmad al-Qadiani (1839-1908 CE) was the main tool by means of
which Qadianiyyah was founded. He was born in the village of Qadian, in
the Punjab, in India, in 1839 CE. He came from a family that was well
known for having betrayed its religion and country, so Ghulam Ahmad grew
up loyal and obedient to the colonialists in every sense. Thus he was
chosen for the role of a so-called prophet, so that the Muslims would
gather around him and he would distract them from waging jihaad against
the English colonialists. The British government did lots of favours for
them, so they were loyal to the British. Ghulam Ahmad was known among
his followers to be unstable, with a lot of health problems and
dependent on drugs.
Among those who confronted him and his evil
da’wah was Shaykh Abu’l-Wafa’ Thana’ al-Amritsari, the leader of
Jama’iyyat Ahl al-Hadeeth fi ‘Umoom al-Hind (The All-India Society of
Ahl al-Hadeeth). The Shaykh debated with him and refuted his arguments,
revealing his ulterior motives and Kufr and the deviation of his way.
When Ghulam Ahmad did not come to his senses, Shaykh Abu’l-Wafa’
challenged him to come together and invoke the curse of Allaah, such
that the one who was lying would die in the lifetime of the one who was
telling the truth. Only a few days passed before Mirza Ghulam Ahmad
al-Qadiani died, in 1908 CE, leaving behind more than fifty books,
pamphlets and articles, among the most important of which are: Izaalat
al-Awhaam (Dispelling illusions), I’jaaz Ahmadi (Ahmadi miracles),
Baraaheen Ahmadiyyah (Ahmadi proofs), Anwaar al-Islam (Lights of Islam),
I’jaaz al-Maseeh (Miracles of the Messiah), al-Tableegh (Conveying (the
message))and Tajalliyyaat Ilaahiyyah (Divine manifestations).
Noor
al-Deen (Nuruddin): the first Khaleefah of the Qadianis. The British
put the crown of Khilaafah on his head, so the disciples (of Ghulam
Ahmad) followed him. Among his books is: Fasl al-Khitaab (Definitive
statement).
Muhammad Ali and Khojah Kamaal al-Deen: the two
leaders of the Lahore Qadianis. They are the ones who gave the final
shape to the movement. The former produced a distorted translation into
English of the Qur’aan. His other works include: Haqeeqat al-Ikhtilaaf
(The reality of differences), al-Nubuwwah fi’l-Islam (Prophethood in
Islam) and al-Deen al-Islami (The Islamic religion). As for Khojah
Kamaal al-Deen, he wrote a book called al-Mathal al-A’laa fi’l-Anbiya’
(The highest example of the Prophets), and other books. This Lahore
group of Ahmadis are those who think of Ghulam Ahmad as a Mujaddid
(renewer or reviver of Islam) only, but both groups are viewed as a
single movement because odd ideas that are not seen in the one will
surely be found in the other.
Muhammad Ali: the leader of the
Lahore Qadianis. He was one of those who gave the final shape to
Qadianiyyah, a colonialist spy and the person in charge of the magazine
which was the voice of the Qadianiyyah. He also produced a distorted
translation into English of the Qur’aan. Among his works are Haqeeqat
al-Ikhtilaaf (The reality of differences), and al-Nubuwwah fi’l-Islam
(Prophethood in Islam), as stated above.
Muhammad Saadiq, the mufti of the Qadianiyyah. His works include: Khatim al-Nabiyyeen The seal of the Prophets).
Basheer Ahmad ibn Ghulam. His works include: Seerat al-Mahdi (the life of the Mahdi) and Kalimat al-Fasl (Decisive word).
Mahmood
Ahmad ibn Ghulam, his second Khaleefah. Among his works are: Anwaar
al-Khilaafah (Lights of the caliphate), Tuhfat al-Mulook and Haqeeqat
al-Nubuwwah (The reality of prophethood).
The appointment of the
Qadiani Zafar-Allaah Khan as the first Foreign Minister of Pakistan had a
major effect in supporting this deviant sect, as he gave them a large
area in the province of the Punjab to be their world headquarters, which
they named Rabwah (high ground) as in the aayah (interpretation of the
meaning): “… And We gave them refuge on high ground (rabwah), a place of
rest, security and flowing streams.” [al-Mu’minoon 23:50].
- Their thought and beliefs:
Ghulam
Ahmad began his activities as an Islamic daa’iyah (caller to Islam) so
that he could gather followers around him, then he claimed to be a
mujaddid inspired by Allaah. Then he took a further step and claimed to
be the Awaited Mahdi and the Promised Messiah. Then he claimed to be a
Prophet and that his prophethood was higher than that of Muhammad (peace
and blessings of Allaah be upon him).
The Qadianis believe that
Allaah fasts, prays, sleeps, wakes up, writes, makes mistakes and has
intercourse – exalted be Allaah far above all that they say.
The Qadiani believes that his god is English because he speaks to him in English.
The
Qadianis believe that Prophethood did not end with Muhammad (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him), but that it is ongoing, and that
Allaah sends a messenger when there is a need, and that Ghulam Ahmad is
the best of all the Prophets.
They believe that Jibreel used to
come down to Ghulam Ahmad and that he used to bring revelation to him,
and that his inspirations are like the Qur’aan.
They say that
there is no Qur’aan other than what the “Promised Messiah” (Ghulam
Ahmad) brought, and no hadeeth except what is in accordance with his
teachings, and no Prophet except under the leadership of Ghulam Ahmad.
They believe that their book was revealed. Its name is al-Kitaab al-Mubeen and it is different from the Holy Qur’aan.
They
believe that they are followers of a new and independent religion and
an independent Sharee’ah, and that the friends of Ghulam are like the
Sahaabah.
They believe that Qadian is like Madeenah and Makkah,
if not better than them, and that its land is sacred. It is their Qiblah
and the place they make hajj to.
They called for the abolition
of jihaad and blind obedience to the British government because, as they
claimed, the British were “those in authority” as stated in the
Qur’aan.
In their view every Muslim is a Kaafir unless he becomes a Qadiani, and everyone who married a non-Qadiani is also a kaafir.
They allow alcohol, opium, drugs and intoxicants.
- Intellectual and ideological roots:
The
westernizing movement of Sir Sayyid Ahmad Khan paved the way for the
emergence of the Qadianiyyah, because it had already spread deviant
ideas.
The British made the most of this opportunity so they
started the Qadiani movement and chose a man from a family that had a
history of being agents of the colonialists.
In 1953 CE, there
was a popular revolution in Pakistan which demanded the removal of
Zafar-Allaah Khan from the position of Foreign Minister and that the
Qadiani sect should be regarded as a non-Muslim minority. In this
uprising around ten thousand Muslims were martyred, and they succeeded
in having the Qadiani minister removed from office.
In Rabee’
al-Awwal 1394 AH (April 1974), a major conference was held by the Muslim
World League in Makkah, which was attended by representatives of Muslim
organizations from around the world. This conference announced that
this sect is Kaafir and is beyond the pale of Islam, and told Muslims to
resist its dangers and not to cooperate with the Qadianis or bury their
dead in Muslim graveyards.
The Majlis al-Ummah in Pakistan (the
central parliament) debated with the Qadiani leader Mirza Naasir Ahmad,
and he was refuted by Shaykh Mufti Mahmood (may Allaah have mercy on
him). The debate went on for nearly thirty hours but Naasir Ahmad was
unable to give answers and the Kufr of this group was exposed, so the
Majlis issued a statement that the Qadianis should be regarded as a
non-Muslim minority.
- Among the factors that make Mirza Ghulam Ahmad an obvious Kaafir are the following:
His claim to be a Prophet
His abolition of the duty of jihaad, to serve the interests of the colonialists.
His saying that people should no longer go on Hajj to Makkah, and his substitution of Qadian as the place of pilgrimage.
His anthropomorphism or likening Allaah to human beings.
His belief in the transmigration of souls and incarnation.
His attributing a son to Allaah and his claim to be the son of God.
His
denying that Prophethood ended with Muhammad (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him) and his regarding the door of Prophethood to be open
to “any Tom, Dick or Harry”.
The Qadianis have strong ties with
Israel. Israel has opened centres and schools for them, and helped them
to publish a magazine which is their mouthpiece, to print books and
publications for distribution worldwide.
The fact that they are
influenced by Judaism, Christianity and al-Baatiniyyah is clear from
their beliefs and practices, even though they claim to be Muslims.
- Their spread and positions of influence:
Most
of the Qadianis nowadays live in India and Pakistan, with a few in
Israel and the Arab world. They are trying, with the help of the
colonialists, to obtain sensitive positions in all the places where they
live.
The Qadianis are very active in Africa and in some western
countries. In Africa they have more than 5,000 teachers and dai’yahs
working full-time to call people to Qadianiyyah. Their wide-spread
activity proves that they have the support of the colonialists.
The
British government is also supporting this movement and making it easy
for their followers to get positions in world governments, corporate
administration and consulates. Some of them are also high-ranking
officers in the secret services.
In calling people to their
beliefs, the Qadianis use all kinds of methods, especially educational
means, because they are highly-educated and there are many scientists,
engineers and doctors in their ranks. In Britain there is a satellite TV
channel called Islamic TV which is run by the Qadianis.
- From the above, it is clear that:
Qadianiyyah
is a misguided group, which is not part of Islam at all. Its beliefs
are completely contradictory to Islam, so Muslims should beware of their
activities, since the ‘Ulama’ (scholars) of Islam have stated that they
are Kaafirs.

-The following statement was published by the Islamic Fiqh Council (Majma’ al-Fiqh al-Islami):
After
discussing the question put to the Islamic Fiqh Council in Capetown,
South Africa, concerning the ruling on the Qadianis and their off-shoot
which is known as Lahoriyyah, and whether they should be counted as
Muslims or not, and whether a non-Muslim is qualified to examine an
issue of this nature:
In the light of research and documents
presented to the members of the council concerning Mirza Ghulam Ahmad
al-Qadiani, who emerged in India in the last century and to whom is
attributed the Qadiani and Lahori movements, and after pondering the
information presented on these two groups, and after confirming that
Mirza Ghulam Ahmad claimed to be a prophet who received revelation, a
claim which is documented in his own writings and speeches, some of
which he claimed to have received as revelation, a claim which he
propagated all his life and asked people to believe in, just as it is
also well-known that he denied many other things which are proven to be
essential elements of the religion of Islam
in the light of the above, the Council issued the following statement:
Firstly: the
claims of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad to be a prophet or a messenger and to
receive revelation are clearly a rejection of proven and essential
elements of Islam, which unequivocally states that Prophethood ended
with Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and that no
revelation will come to anyone after him. This claim made by Mirza
Ghulam Ahmad makes him and anyone who agrees with him an apostate who is
beyond the pale of Islam. As for the Lahoriyyah, they are like the
Qadianiyyah: the same ruling of apostasy applies to them despite the
fact that they described Mirza Ghulam Ahmad as a shadow and
manifestation of our Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be
upon him).
Secondly: it
is not appropriate for a non-Muslim court or judge to give a ruling on
who is a Muslim and who is an apostate, especially when this goes
against the consensus of the scholars and organizations of the Muslim
Ummah. Rulings of this nature are not acceptable unless they are issued
by a Muslim scholar who knows all the requirements for being considered a
Muslim, who knows when a person may be deemed to have overstepped the
mark and become an apostate, who understands the realities of Islam and
kufr, and who has comprehensive knowledge of what is stated in the
Qur’aan, Sunnah and scholarly consensus. The ruling of a court of that
nature is invalid. And Allaah knows best.

Qadianis as non-Muslim minority
Abdur Rehman Bawa Friday, September 07, 2012
September
7, 1974, is a memorable and historic day for the Islamic Republic of
Pakistan as, on this day, the National Assembly, through a
constitutional amendment, unanimously declared all the followers of
Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani as non-Muslim minority. Later in 1984,
through an ordinance Qadianis were prohibited from using Islamic terms,
and a ban was imposed on all their un-Islamic activities.
‘Finality
of Prophethood’ has always been the fundamental and joint belief of
Islam and is an integral part of our faith. It has been the unanimous
decision of the Ummah that anyone claiming to be a prophet after the
Holy Prophet (SAW) is excommunicated from Islam. Since Mirza Ghulam
Ahmad Qadiani had claimed prophethood, and being the incarnation of the
Holy Prophet (SAW), therefore the Muslim scholars the world over had
issued an ordain (fatwa) declaring him and his followers to be
non-Muslims. On the contrary, the Qadianis consider more than 1.5
billion Muslims throughout the world as outside the pale of (their)
Islam. Qadianis do not offer prayers behind the Muslims and they have
severed all religious contacts with them declaring them as illegitimate
(haram). So much so that even if a small child of a Muslim dies, a
Qadiani would never offer his funeral prayer. Pakistan’s first Foreign
Minister Chaudhry Zafarullah Khan did not offer the funeral prayer of
Father of the Nation Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah.
It
was the philosopher of Pakistan Allama Muhammad Iqbal who had for the
first time demanded of the rulers to declare Qadianis as non-Muslim
minority. (reference: Haraf-e-Iqbal).
Qadianis and
Muslims are two separate entities. Their religions are different and
they have different identities. If we have a look at the world history,
it is proved beyond a shadow of doubt that whenever someone claims to be
a prophet, those present would be divided into two classes - believers
and non-believers, irrespective of the fact that the man is right or
wrong. These two groups can never belong to the same religion.
The
followers of Moses (Jews), the followers of Christ (Christians) and the
followers of the Holy Prophet (SAW) (Muslims) who rejected the
teachings of any new claimant of prophethood from amongst them and
remained true to their religions. But how can those, who believed in the
new prophet, be called Muslims? Justice demands that they should have
established their separate identity like the Bahais. They believe in all
prophets including the Holy Prophet (SAW). However they have their own
prophet - Bahaullah.
The real dispute between Muslims and
Qadianis is that of identity. The same principle applies to mundane
affairs. If a company has been functioning for the past one hundred
years with a specific name, trade mark and a logo, and if some persons
of this company leave it and launch a new company, will his new company
be justified in using the name of the previous firm? Can they use the
trade mark and logo of the old company they deserted? Can someone other
than a policeman use police uniform or badges?
Can someone
other than an army man use the uniform or badges of someone belonging to
the army? What would law do to an ordinary man who flaunts as a
policeman wearing police uniform? Similarly if Qadianis have made a new
prophet, in order to remove any misunderstanding, they should dissociate
from Islam and work under a new name. If Qadinais establish their
separate identity under this principle, there will be no dispute between
Muslims and Qadianis.
However the followers of Mirza Ghulam
Ahmad Qadiani were declared non-Muslim minority on Sept 7, 1974, but the
Qadiani community is not only continuously refusing to accept this
constitutional amendment, but it is denigrating Pakistan by lobbying
against it at international fora.
Their propaganda is
that they were declared non-Muslims at the behest of Shah Faisal, the
King of Saudi Arabia and further that the decision against them is in
violation of fundamental human rights. They dub the decision as out and
out cruelty and so and so forth.
The first thing to be
remembered in this connection is that the assembly that declared
Qadianis as non-Muslims in 1974 was an elected National Assembly and all
the members were elected representatives of the people of Pakistan.
None of the members disagreed with the amendment, which means that it
was a democratic decision. The West as well as human rights
organisations recognise democratic system as genuine. It beats the
imagination to see people criticising this political decision.
Secondly,
prior to this decision not only a full Qadiani team led by its head
Mirza Nasir but the head of the Lahori sect led by its chief were
invited to the National Assembly and allowed full 13 days to verbally
argue and record their comprehensive statements. The National Assembly
took a decision only after that. When both the factions of Qadianis came
to the National Assembly, it means that they recognised the status of
the National Assembly.
Moreover, the Qadiani Jamaat
itself had challenged the Qadiani Ordinance 1984 in the Federal Shariat
Court (FSC), and after hearing the arguments the FSC had upheld the
Qadiani Ordinance 1984.
It is unjust to term the ordinance
cruel or controversial after the decision of the National Assembly and
the judgment of the FSC. As far as pressure from Shah Faisal is
concerned, there is a Quranic injunction that no non-Muslim should be
allowed to enter the precincts of Haram Sharif. As the Custodian of
Harmain-al-Sharifain, it is the right of the Saudi monarch to stop
Qadianis from entering Harm Sharif.
The attitude and
behaviour of Qadianis is also responsible for their being declared
non-Muslims. The anti-Qadiani movement was launched in 1953.
Qadiani
conspiracies; use of aggressive and fiery language by Chaudhry
Zafrullah Khan at Jehangir Park Karachi while occupying the most
important post of Foreign Minister of Pakistan; subjecting Muslim
students to violence on May 29, 1974 at Rabwah (now Chenab Nagar) were
the incidents that snowballed into sharp reaction.
These
actions gave birth to Tehreek-e-Khatme Nabuwwat in 1974 and resultantly
Qadianis were declared non-Muslim minority. Qadianis should brood over
their behaviour with a cool mind and bring about a change in their
attitude. They should respect the law and the Constitution of Pakistan.
Wakf Board to strike off Qadiani properties from its records
Special Correspondent Hyderabad, February 19, 2012
The
Andhra Pradesh State Wakf Board has resolved to strike off from its
records all places of worship, community centres and other institutions
of Qadianis registered with it.
These institutions would be now
handed over to the State government with a request to manage them as it
deemed fit under the Endowments Department.
Celebrations
The
Board further resolved to ‘take back' the Sunni and Shia mosques under
the occupation of the Qadianis also known as Ahmadiya community. The
Board's decision, which came at the end of daylong deliberations here on
Saturday, was welcomed by various Muslim organisations. In fact the
announcement triggered celebrations with Muslims distributing sweets and
playing the ‘daf' at the Haj House. For most part of the day, members
of various Muslim organisations stayed put in the Haj House in
anticipation of the announcement. This is the first time that any Wakf
Board in the country has taken such a step to remove the Qadiani
properties from its records.
The Wakf Board Chairman, Syed Ghulam
Afzal Biabani, said since the Qadianis are declared out of the fold of
Islam, their properties couldn't be part of Muslim Wakf. The decision
was taken after careful deliberations and consultation with legal
experts.
Other Board members Akbar Nizamuddin, Syed Omer Jaleel,
Abdul Jabbar, Ilyas Sait, Zaheeruddin Sufi, Altaf Husain Rizvi (MLC),
M.A. Khan (MP) were also present and supported the decision.
As
per the present information, there are three Qadiani institutions in the
twin cities registered with the Wakf Board. They are Anwar Manzil and
Baitul Irshad at Barkatpura and Ahmadiya Jubilee Hall, Afzalgunj.
Besides, there are three Qadiani properties at Mahabubnagar and two in
Khammam.
The Board resolved to retrieve a Sunni mosque at
Falaknuma which is presently under the control of the Qadianis. In
future, if more such mosques were detected, they would also be taken
back, Mr. Biabani asserted.
Wakf Board was created to take care
of religious institutions endowed for charitable religious purpose of
Islamic faith. “Since Qadianis are not part of Muslim community Wakf
Board cannot be a custodian of their property,” said Ilyas Sait, former
Wakf Board chairman.

This is the first time that any Wakf Board in the country has taken such a step
Qadiani issue turning into major controversy
The Hindu Special Correspondent Andhra Pradesh ,Hyderabad February 17, 2012
Board to look into matter on Saturday
The
State Wakf Board's decision to delete the Qadiani wakf properties
listed in its records is snowballing into a major controversy.
In view of the long pending demand from different Muslim organisations,
the Board resolved to look into the matter at its meeting on Saturday.
But
even before a final decision is taken, the Board chairman, Syed Ghulam
Afzal Biabani, has been receiving threatening phone calls allegedly from
the Qadianis.
“I was warned of dire consequences if I went ahead
with the move,” Mr. Biabani said and added that he has given a police
complaint.
Solidarity expressed
As news of threatening calls
to Mr. Biabani spread, a large number of Muslims, including ulemas,
visited the Wakf Board office here on Thursday to express their
solidarity with him. They asked him to act against the Qadianis as they
had already been declared to be outside the fold of Islam by the Muslim
World League in 1974. There has been a demand for quite some time from
the Majlise-e-Tahaffuz-e-Khatme-e-Nubuwwat Trust, A.P. and other Muslim
organisations to delete properties like shops, land, graveyards and
places of worship of the Qadinais from the Wakf Board record since they
are considered an ‘unbelieving group' because of their ideology.
Meanwhile,
the Darul Ifta of Jamia Nizamia has issued a ‘fatwa' to delete the
Qadiani places of worship and properties from Muslim Wakf since
properties of non-Muslims cannot be a part of Wakf.
The two-para
edict, given on a question raised by the Wakf Board, says “all Muslims
believe in the finality of Prophethood as confirmed by Quran and Hadith.
Since the Qadianis do not believe in ‘khatme Nabuwwat' belief they
stand excommunicated from Islam”. Earlier in the day, members of the
Majlis-e-Tahaffuz-e-Khatme Nubuwwat raised slogans on the Haj House
premises in support of the Wakf Board. Its representatives, Moulana
Abdul Mughni Mazahari and Mohd. Arshad Ali Qasmi, asked the Wakf Board
to take action against the Qadianis. “It is a matter of faith and there
can be no compromise,” they said.
Qadiani faith
Asifuddin Muhammed, president, Islamic Academy for Comparative Religion, said that the Qadiani faith is a totally different religion and has nothing to do with Muslims and Islam. “The Wakf Board decision, though delayed, is apt,” he remarked.
No one from the Qadiani side was available for comment.
Mr.
Biabani said that the Wakf Board was collecting data about the Qadiani
properties listed in its record and also obtaining a legal opinion. A
decision would be taken in the ensuing meeting, he said.
