Ahmadiyya Muslims belong to the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, an Islamic messianic movement that originated in British India in the late 19th century. The community was founded in 1889 by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, who claimed to be the Promised Messiah and Mahdi, fulfilling Islamic prophecies regarding the return of Jesus and the advent of the Mahdi16. Motto The motto of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is "Love for All, Hatred for None." This slogan emphasizes the community's commitment to promoting peace, tolerance, and understanding among all people, irrespective of their faith or beliefs. Differences from Other Muslim Groups Ahmadiyya Muslims differ from other Muslim groups in several significant ways: Beliefs about Prophethood: Ahmadi Muslims believe that Mirza Ghulam Ahmad is the final prophet in a non-law-bearing capacity. This contrasts with the beliefs of mainstream Muslim groups, which hold that Muhammad is the last prophet (Khatam an-Nabiyyin) and that no prophets will come after him. Views on Jesus: Ahmadis believe that Jesus survived the crucifixion and later died a natural death, a belief that differs from the orthodox Muslim view that Jesus was not crucified and will return at the end of times. These differences contribute to the distinct identity of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community within the broader Islamic world. See more
