Abstract

Summary: This book provides a comprehensive critique of the writings of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani, including Al-Khazā’in al-Rūḥānīyah, Fath al-Islām, Tawḍīḥ al-Maram, and Idhālat al-Ahwām. It analyzes his claims using Quranic evidence, authentic Hadith, and classical Islamic scholarship. The historical context of 19th-century India, including the influence of Hindu philosophy, Sufism, and colonialism, is examined to understand the origins of these doctrines. The book addresses false claims of continued prophethood, allegorical interpretations of Jesus’ return, and mystical innovations. It refutes the concepts of reincarnation, spiritual visions, and reinterpretation of prophetic lineage. The work highlights methodological errors and provides pedagogical lessons for scholars and students. Practical guidance is offered for both Qadiani followers and the Muslim community. It emphasizes respectful dialogue, education, and scriptural clarity. Appendices include Quranic texts, Hadith references, and chronological analysis. Overall, the book aims to preserve orthodox Islamic teachings while fostering understanding and scholarly rigor.
