Quick fact: The book Khutbat-e-Ahmadiya was written by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, the founder of the Ahmadiyya movement.

Explanation

Khutbat-e-Ahmadiya is a collection of lectures delivered by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad in which he presented arguments in defense of Islam against Christian missionary criticism and also expounded his own religious claims. The work is significant in understanding the doctrinal positions of the Ahmadiyya movement, which emerged in the late 19th century in British India. Mirza Ghulam Ahmad authored over 80 books during his lifetime, with Khutbat-e-Ahmadiya being among his notable early works.

Good to know

Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (1835–1908) was born in Qadian, Punjab, and founded the Ahmadiyya movement in 1889. His writings, including Khutbat-e-Ahmadiya, were primarily in Urdu, Arabic, and Persian, and aimed at reviving what he saw as the true spirit of Islam. The book was written in response to Christian missionary activity in India and contains lectures that blend Islamic theology with his own claims of being the Promised Messiah and Mahdi.
