Khatme Nabuwat day: ‘Qadianiat is a political movement, not religion’
The International Khatme Nabuwat Movement (IKNM) amir Maulana Abdul Hafeez Makki said on Friday that qadianiat was a political movement and not a religion. He said its adherents’ objective was to gain power in Pakistan.
He was speaking on the opening day of the 25th International Khatme Nabuwat Conference in Chiniot.
Makki said with support from foreign countries, the movement had been trying to seize control of the ministries of defence, finance and foreign Affairs.
Ahle Sunnat Wal Jammat leader Maulana Alam Tariq said his organisation would shirk no sacrifice in the movement to defend the end of prophethood (tehrik-i-khatme nabuwat) and honour of the companions of Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
Majlis Ahrar-i-Islam amir Syed Ataul Muhaimim Shah Bukhari urged the participants to abandon sectarian agendas and instead preach the teachings of the Holy Prophet to ensure that the movement achieved its objective.
IKNM Pakistan general secretary Maulana Zahid Mahmood Qasmi said the case of Rimsha Masih was being used to undermine the blasphemy laws. He said protection of the rights of minorities should not be linked to abolition of blasphemy laws. He criticised some non-governmental organisations for trying to secure for the minority population a right to challenge the teachings of Islam.
MPA Maulana Ilyas Chinioti urged the chief of army staff to outlaw the recruitment of Ahmedis in Pakistan Army. He said there was no way the latter could be relied upon to defend the country as they contested the Islamic teachings on jihad (holy war).
IKNM deputy general secretary Muhammad Qadri accused the Ahmedi community of defaulting on hundreds of thousands of rupees in income tax. He called upon the Chief Justice of Pakistan to take suo motu notice of the matter.
Markazi Jamiat Ahle Hadith, Sunni Tehrik, Jamiat Ulema Pakistan and Ahle Sunnat Wal Jammat organised separate rallies to mark the day after Friday prayers. Speakers at these rallies praised late Zulfikar Ali Bhutto for declaring Ahmedis non-Muslim.
Speaking to a gathering in Rahim Yar Khan, Jamiat Ulema Islam Punjab amir said the media were distorting facts in Rimsha Masih’s case. He said by taking the matter to the police the prayer leader, Khalid Jadoon, had in fact prevented a riot in the neighbourhood.
In Gorot, International Ghausia Forum chairman Maulana Mehboobul Rasool Qadri said that Ahmedis were preaching their faith in Balochistan and Sindh and urged the gathering to keep a watch on such activities.
He said the JUP leadership from across the province would gather in Gorot on September 9 (tomorrow) to discuss holding a Nizam-i-Mustafa Lao, Mulk Bachao Conference.

@Hammad: Plz share the inside stories cause they'll Be a drama and you'll wont be able to substantiate
@Umer Why you ppl confuse others by raising senseless and idiotic questions? All the sects within Islam have differences but they agree on the cardinal principles the foremost being Finality of Prophethood...
But there are already dozens of sects calling themselves Muslim each calling others kafir and some of them are also killing each other. Your example doesn't fit.
@Ahmad Shah:
How? His bosses were General Mosa and General Ayub who had the responsibility to make the final decision. How is General Malik responsible being a lowly General who is just supposed to follow orders? The way history tells us General Malik was doing fine and making good progress until suddenly the command was taken from him and given to General Yahya Khan. Since then it went all downhill.
These Islamists are misguided bigots teaching hatred ! These people do not even know the meaning of MUSLIM. Will any Islamist enlighten me with the meaning of Muslim?
I would like to salute all those who contributed in declaring Qadiyanis as non-muslims and we are celebrating 38 anniversary of that golden day. Qadiyaniat has been a political movement since day one. In 1974 scholars from 125 countries unanimously declared Qadiyanis as non-Muslims. So either these scholrs are wrong or Qadiyanis. If these scholars are wrong then what about the Islam from 7th century till beginning of 20th century, when Qadiyaniat was formed.
Architect of Pakistan. the person who conceived the Idea of Pakistan demanded the govt. to declare Qadiyanis non-Muslims in 1930s. Now was He also wrong. The problem lies with Qadiyani they are wrong and the disinform innocent people and confuse them. Qadiyanis are not allowed to call themselves Muslims Just like a new newspaper can't start publishing by using the name of ET. If a business can't give its name then how can a religion comprising of 1.5 billion Muslims allow a new and deviant group to use its name.
@Ali Hasan: first of all Fazlur Rahman's father wasnt part of JI. Secondly, he did not oppose creation of PAkistan. Go and read ur history if u havent read it before.
@afzaalkhan:
What problem? Terrorism against Ahmadis? This doesn’t happen in most countries why does it happen in Pakistan and a few other countries which happen to be backwards otherwise too? Seems to me people like you need to see inwards instead of blaming others for your misdeeds.
Wasn't the Jamaat-e-Islami, including Fazlur Rehman's father, AGAINST the creation of Pakistan? Aren't all sunni mullahs of the same cloth? I do not hold any grudges nor judgements against the Ahmedis. Who are these obese and corrupt peddlers of their religions of convenience to tell me otherwise?
Simply a case of blind leading the dumb. I hope that our nation wakes up before its too late. I wish that one day these people can come out of the emotional mumbo jumbo and stop living in this magical fantasy land where its never your own fault, all the harm comes due to foreign conspiracy. And i pray that may God bless people of this land so they start using brains and be able to actually identify the difference between "Duudh" and "Pani".
All qadiyani have to do is stop pretending to be muslims then majority of problem will be solved. Simple as that.
Ahmadi Muslims are not just serving pakistan but also serving in whole world.
If pakistanis spent as much time on science and education with as much dedication and fervor they attach to the religion, I think Pakistanis could have built a nuclear weapon honestly.
@Amir: As to find out how successful Gen Akhtar hussain Malik was, please refer to this week's article by Ayaz Amir in The News and ...doodh ka doodh aur paani ka paani ho jay ga.
@Awans: The whole world knows that majority of the scientists are Muslims, not qadiyanis. rather than talking please provide evidence.
The mullahs need to be outlawed and their illegal occupation of government lands in the name of religion should be taken into account.. Wait a second, was A.Q. Khan an Ahmadi who betrayed the nuclear secrets of the country?? Was Mir jafar an Ahmadi Muslim?? Was Hussain Haqqani an Ahmadi?? There have been tens of dozens of Ahmadi soldiers, beaurecrats and enterpreneurs who have worked for the progression of this country and these mullahs have always tried to incite hate and intolerance.. They have not a single worthwhile contribution in the development and creation of Pakistan!
Everyone should be allowed to preach their religion. Feudalism and mullaism is a political movement too. I would like to hear these mullahs' opinions if any western government stopped them from taking part in preaching Islam in europe or USA. besides, what is ASWJ reprentatives doing in this rally. Have nt they got their hands full with spreadig hate about shias and barelvis, etc.
"MPA Maulana Ilyas Chinioti urged the chief of army staff to outlaw the recruitment of Ahmedis in Pakistan Army. He said there was no way the latter could be relied upon to defend the country as they contested the Islamic teachings on jihad (holy war)."
I guess this was perhaps the reason why Ayub Khan replaced General Akhtar Malik, an Ahmedi, with General Yahya Khan at Kashmir front during 1965 Pak-India war.
People in glass houses should not cast stones.
Mard-e-Haq.....Ahmedis are patriotic Pakistanis and they fought tooth and nail for the creation of Pakistan, whereas the most Mullsh parties were against the creation of this state. Now the Mullahs have become the undisputed thekedar of this country and those who fought and shed their blood for the creation of this country are being persecuted persistently by those who were against the creation of this country. What a shame!
Please read abt operation grand slam which was led by an Ahmadi Lt. General Malik. Conspiracy threorist says that operation was so successful that Gen Ayub did not wanted to have Gen Malik take credit and become popluar. So he replaced hm immed with Gen Yahya. This led to delays in decision, Indians regrouped, countered attacked and took the gains back.
What are these mauvis talking about Ahmadis not defending Pakistan. I know Ahmadis army officers who had served honorably in Siachen, have been martyred in recent operations in Swat.
All I can do is LOL at their ignorance.
As far as I know, not one Ahmedi, Shia or Christian military officer has ever betrayed his nation. If I am wrong, please correct me. I'd welcome it.
For the information of Tehreek e Khatam e Nubawwat that majority of the top Scientists of Pakistan in Defense, Pakistan Atomic Energy Commision and in Universities are Ahmedis and they can never went against the country which according to Ahmedis is one of the Sign of Allah to promulgate Khilafat and to abolish hatred from the world and to stop all the wars. Ahmedis were one of the most Instrumental group in gaining this country and it was because of the Efforts of Ahmedis worldwide that Pakistan was recognized as Pakistan's Foreign Minister was Ahmedi and he used all of his efforts and his group went against all odds so that Pakistan could be represented at every level in the world.
The Secular Bhutto is now being praised who did the same thing which Taliban are doing right now by deciding who is Muslim and who is Not and started extremism but the fact remains and the history can never be erased that who is a Sincere of this land and who is not. Also for their Information Pakistan's First Atomic Reactor was established by Dr Abdus Salam when Dr Abdul Qadeer was enjoying in Holland in 1970s and everyone know who Dr Abdus Salam was and also Pakistan's Space Agency known as SUPARCO was also established by him.
