Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Declared Jihad Haram: His Own Words on the British Government In Episode 118 of Seerat ul Mahdi we saw how Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani treated the question of "Ulil Amr" . In Episode 119 we go one step further and ask the real question: why did he declare jihad haram , and who benefited from that declaration? We are not going to answer with outside books or hostile writers. Every page in this post comes from Ahmadi literature itself: Ruhani Khazain and Majmua Ishtiharat . Read the pages, check the volume and page numbers at the bottom, and decide for yourself. "Jihad Is Absolutely Haram in This Era" The clearest statement comes from Government Angrezi aur Jihad (Ruhani Khazain, vol. 17, p. 28). Mirza Sahib first explains his claim to be both the Messiah and the Mahdi through the idea of buruz (spiritual reappearance). Then he describes what the Messiah's job is: As the Messiah, my work is to stop Muslims from savage attacks and bloo...

From the Jamatkhana to the Quran: An Ex-Ismaili's Story and Her Critique of Aga Khanism A summary of the Zaitoon FM live interview between Mr. Aheer and Elaina Ali About the interview On a live stream that ran for roughly four and a half hours, Mr. Aheer , host of Zaitoon FM Live , sat down with Elaina Ali, a former Aga Khani Ismaili who now runs the Aga Khanism YouTube channel . Aheer, whose audience knows him mainly for work on the Finality of Prophethood and the Qadiani/Ahmadi question, explained that he invited Elaina after noticing her channel and realising how little his own audience knew about the Aga Khani community. The stream followed a question-by-question format. Elaina presented slides and video clips, many taken from Ismaili institutional websites, publications and recorded talks, and said she wanted viewers to verify each reference themselves rather than take her word for it. The second half was open to callers, including a former Ismaili who is now Shia Ithna-A...

Following British Monarch = Following Allah Almighty? Did Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Make the British Crown "Ulil Amr"?

Did Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Make the British Crown "Ulil Amr"? Episode 118 recap | Seerat ul Mahdi | Zaitoon FM Live Imagine being told, in your own scripture-based faith, that your loyalty to a foreign colonial government is not just good citizenship, but a Quranic command. Not "obey the law." Not "live peacefully." But: the English crown belongs inside the Quran's own category of "those in authority", and you are to be obedient to it with sincerity of heart. That is not an accusation invented by critics. It is printed in Ruhani Khazain , the collected writings of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani , in his own words, over his own signature. In this post we go through the pages one by one, using only Ahmadiyya sources , and let the author speak for himself. At the end, there is a question that every Ahmadi, especially those who were born into the community and never had reason to ask it, should sit with honestly. First, the Quranic verse at the c...
