The Miracle of Ahmad

The book, The Miracle of Ahmad (I'jaz-e-Ahmadi) is one of the signs of truthfulness of the Founder of Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. It was written in 1902 when an opponent in Mudh, India alleged that all prophecies made by Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad(as) were false and that he did not possess the miraculous knowledge of the Arabic language he had claimed.



In response, the Promised Messiah(as) wrote this book containing a lengthy Arabic Qasidah [ode] in praise of the Holy Prophet Muhammad, may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, in a mere five days. He challenged his opponents to produce the like of it and announced a prize money of Rs. 10,000 which was his total worth at the time. No one arose to the challenge. Instead, a large number of residents of town of Mudh were decimated by

the plague as prophesied in this book.
