Masih Maud

Masih Maud refers to Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (1835–1908), founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. He claimed to be the promised Messiah and Mahdi, sent by God to revive Islam and promote moral reform. Ahmad's teachings emphasize peaceful propagation of faith, equality, and justice. His claims led to controversy within the wider Muslim community; many Muslims do not recognize him as the Messiah. The Ahmadiyya community considers him a spiritual leader and reformer, advocating for peaceful coexistence and interfaith dialogue. The movement is significant worldwide, especially in South Asia, but remains a subject of theological debate.
