Hazrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad مرزا مسرور احمد (born 15 September 1950) is Khalifatul Masih V, the spiritual leader of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. He was elected as the fifth successor of Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Of Qadian on 22 April 2003, a few days after the death of his predecessor Hazrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad, the fourth Caliph for the Ahmadiiya Muslim Community.
-------------------------------------
Ahmadiyya احمدِیہ is an Islamic reformist movement founded in British India near the end of the 19th century. It originated with the life and teachings of Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Of Qadian (1835--1908), who claimed to have fulfilled the prophecies of the world's reformer during the end times, who was to herald the Eschaton or day of judgement as predicted in the traditions of various world religions and bring about the final triumph of Islam as per Islamic prophecy. He claimed that he was the Mujaddid (divine reformer) of the 14th Islamic century, the promised Messiah and Mahdi awaited by Muslims. The adherents of the Ahmadiyya movement are referred to as Ahmadis or Ahmadi Muslims.
Ahmadi thought emphasizes the belief that Islam is the final dispensation for humanity as revealed to Muhammad and the necessity of restoring to it its true essence and pristine form, which had been lost through the centuries. Thus, Ahmadis view themselves as leading the revival and peaceful propagation of Islam. The Ahmadis were among the earliest Muslim communities to arrive in Britain and other Western countries.
Ahmadiyya adherents believe that God sent Ahmad, like Jesus, to end religious wars, condemn bloodshed and reinstitute morality, justice and peace. They believe that he divested Islam of fanatical beliefs and practices by championing what is in their view, Islam's true and essential teachings as practised by the Prophet Muhammad. Ahmadi Muslims are divided into two subgroups; the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community and the Lahore Ahmadiyya Movement.
Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Of Qadian founded the movement on 23 March 1889 and termed it the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama'at (community), envisioning it to be a revitalisation of Islam. Ahmadis consider themselves Muslims and claim to practice Islam in its pristine form; however, some Ahmadiyya-specific beliefs have been thought of as opposed to contemporary mainstream Islamic thought since the movement's birth, and some Ahmadis have subsequently faced persecution.
