The Promised Messiah & Mahdias
azrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmadas, founder of
the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, claimed
to be the Promised Messiah and Mahdi
whose advent was awaited under different names and
titles by the adherents of various religions.
Under divine guidance, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam
Ahmadas made the revolutionary disclosure that there
was to appear only one such Reformer, whose mission
was to ultimately bring mankind into the fold of Islam.
His advent, he declared, would �nally usher a golden
era of one universal religion which man had dreamt of
and yearned for. He divested Islam of fanatical beliefs
and practices by vigorously championing Islam’s true
and essential teachings. He also recognized the noble
teachings of the great religious founders and explained
how such teachings converged into the one true Islam.
Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (1835-1908)

of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community

Hazrat Khalifatul Masih Vaba
azrat Mirza Masroor Ahmadaba is the head of
the worldwide Ahmadiyya Muslim Communi-
ty. He is the �fth successor and great
grandson of the Promised Messiah, Hazrat Mirza
Ghulam Ahmadas. Prior to his being elected as Khalifa,
he accumulated an impressive record of humanitarian
service, including voluntarily working in Africa as a
secondary school principal for a number of years.
The Khalifa is particularly dedicated to ensure that
Islam is properly understood as a religion of peace
throughout the world. Through his sermons, lectures,
books and personal meetings, he has continually
advocated for the worship of God Almighty, service to
humanity, universal human rights, a just society and
separation of religion and state.

�e Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, under the leadership of its holy founder, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmadas, held its �rst convention on December 27, 1891 in Qadian, India. Approxi-mately 75 people attended the event. For over a century since then, the Community has held its Annual Convention, or Jalsa Salana, in numerous countries around the world. Tens of thousands of Community members gather at these conventions at various times throughout the year. �e principle aims of the Annual Convention are to facilitate greater spiritual awareness among Community members, strengthen ties, and promote peace. Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmadas, emphasized the vital importance of the Annual Convention: “You must not rank this convention in the same league as other ordinary human assem-blies.”
