Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani (1835–1908) was a prominent Indian religious figure and the founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. Born in Qadian, Punjab, he hailed from a noble family and dedicated his life to the study and interpretation of Islamic teachings. He claimed to be the Promised Messiah and Mahdi, roles anticipated by various religious traditions, and asserted that his mission was to revive the true essence of Islam. His extensive writings, which include over 90 books in Urdu, Arabic, and Persian, address theological issues, interfaith dialogue, and the spiritual reformation of society. The Ahmadiyya movement, established by Mirza Qadiani, continues to emphasize peace, education, and humanitarian efforts worldwide.
