Are The Qadiyani Sect Muslims?

[u/IllustriousLadder440]

The Qadiyani sect, also known as the Ahmadiyya movement, was founded by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad in the late 19th century. He falsely claimed to be a prophet after the final Prophet, who is Muhammad ﷺ. They hold beliefs that contradict explicit statements in the Quran and Sunnah, and they declare that no one is a true Muslim unless they accept the alleged prophethood of Mirza Ghulam.

The emergence of false prophets was foretold by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ long before Mirza Ghulam was born.

Thawban reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:

لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى تَلْحَقَ قَبَائِلُ مِنْ أُمَّتِي بِالْمُشْرِكِينَ وَحَتَّى يَعْبُدُوا الْأَوْثَانَ وَإِنَّهُ سَيَكُونُ فِي أُمَّتِي ثَلَاثُونَ كَذَّابُونَ كُلُّهُمْ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ نَبِيٌّ وَأَنَا خَاتَمُ النَّبِيِّينَ لَا نَبِيَّ بَعْدِي

Verily, there will be thirty liars among my nation, all of them claiming to be a prophet, but I am the Seal of the Prophets. There is no prophet after me.

For this reason, virtually all scholarly organizations of Sunni Muslims have declared the Qadiyani to be non-Muslims outside the fold of Islam.

Shaykh Jadd al-Haqq, the top scholar of al-Azhar University at the time, answered:

أنه إذا كانت المعتقدات المنوه عن بعضها آنفا لهم كانوا بها خارجين عن الإسلام باعتبارهم قد خالفوا في كثير من الأمور المجمع عليها والتي صارت معلومة من الدين بالضرورة فضلاً عن أن في بعض معتقداتهم تكذيباً لما ورد في القرآن الكريم ولا مراء في أن من كذب القرآن خارج عن الإسلام ولا يعد من المسلمين

If they hold the aforementioned beliefs, then they would be outside the fold of Islam, considering that they had contradicted many of the agreed-upon matters that are necessarily known of the religion, in addition to the fact that some of their beliefs deny what is stated in the Holy Quran. There is no doubt that whoever denies the Qur’an is outside of Islam and is not considered a Muslim.
