| Summary: | In the late 19th and early 20th century, Muslims in India faced a severe challenge to their faith. Many deviated sects were busy calling people to their teachings in the guise of true Islam. Qadiyanis or the Ahmadiyya community founded and led by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiyanis also promulgated his teachings, particularly among Muslims. Mirza denied many teachings of Islam which were followed by Muslims from the time of Prophet Muhammed. He claimed to be a Mujaddid, a Mahdi, a promised Messiah and finally the prophet of God. Many scholars have refuted the deviated teachings of the sect, among whom Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanvi stands out as a towering figure. Using qualitative content analysis, this study analyzes Mirza's fundamental claims by referring to many of his works and the authenticity of refutations by Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanvi in his book Qaide Qadiyanis. It found that Mirza tried to demolish the fundamental belief of the Ummah which is the finality of the prophethood He tried to get into the prophethood by creating Zilli and Baruzi prophethood to disguise Muslims. He also disrespected the previous prophets and showed his superiority over them including Prophet Muhammed . Eventually, Mirza claimed to be the absolute prophet of God. Maulana Thanvi'ss refutations are valid according to the Qur'an, Sunnah and the views of Muslim scholars. To facilitate an understanding of the refutations, this study translated Maulana Thanvi's Qaide Qadiyan from Urdu to English which is appended in this thesis. |
