The third question from the Fatwa No. 1615:
Question: What is the Islamic ruling (fatwa) about this new religion Ahmadiyya and its followers? … In addition, when and where did this religion originate and what is the Islamic ruling (fatwa) about people who are in its favor?
All Praise to Allah who is The One and Blessings and Peace be upon his Messenger, his Followers and Companions … To the Point:
Answer: The Pakistan government has ruled these people outside the fold of Islam; also, the Muslim World League (Rabita A’ailm-e-Islami) in Mecca has passed a similar fatwa. In the gathering of the Muslim Scholars (Rabita A’ailm-e-Islami) in the year 1394 A.H. (1974), a written statement was drafted to explain the true principles of this group, how and when they started, and so on. Very briefly, this group has declare that Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, an Indian, is a prophet who has received revelations from Allah and that no one will be correct in his Islam, unless he believes in him (Mirza). He (Mirza) was born in the 13th century, but Allah(SWT) has told us in his Book (Quran) that prophet Muhammad(SAW) is the last of Prophets1; all Muslim scholars have given an unanimous ruling that whoever makes the claim that after him(SAW) there can appear a new prophet is a Kafir (non-Muslim), because he will be lying about Allah’s Book and about the hadith of the Prophet(SAW) which states that he(SAW) is the very last of the Prophets. In addition, this would be contrary to the consensus of the Muslim Ummah.
With Allah is Success and Peace of Allah be upon his Messenger Muhammad and his Followers and Companions.

Fatawa al-Lajnah ad-Daimah lil-Buhoth al-‘Ilmiyah wal-Ifta., Question 3 of Fatwa No. 1615
Question from the Fatwa No. 4317:
Question: We request your explanation on the Islamic ruling regarding the Qadiani group, and their self-procalimed “prophet” Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani. We also request you send us some books which have researched this group since I am concerned in studying them.
Answer: The prophethood was completed by our prophet Muhammad(SAW) so there is no prophet after him, according to what is confirmed in the Book (Quran) and the Sunnah. So whoever claims prophethood after this, then he is a liar. And from amongst these is Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani. So his claim of prophethood is a lie, and what the Qadianis claim regarding his prophethood is false.
The judgement of the Council of Senior Scholars of Saudi Arabia was passed regarding the Qadianis that they are an unbelieving group because of their ideology.
With Allah is Success and Peace of Allah be upon his Messenger Muhammad and his Followers and Companions.

The third question from the Fatwa No. 8536:
Question: What is the difference between the Muslims and the Ahmadis (Qadianis)?
Answer: The difference between the two is:
The Muslims are those who worship Allah alone and follow His messenger Muhammad(SAW) and believe that he is the seal of the prophets, and that there is no prophet after him.
As for the Ahmadis, who are followers of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, they are kuffar and not Muslims, because they claim that Mirza Ghulam Ahmad was a prophet after Muhammad(SAW), and whoever believes in this ideology then he is an denier of truth, according to all the scholars of Islam, as Allah(SWT) says:
“Muhammad is not the father of any man among you, but he is the Messenger of Allaah and the last (seal) of the Prophets” [al-Ahzaab, 40].
And because of what has been authenticated on the authority of the Messenger of Allah(SAW) that he said:
“I am the seal of (all) the prophets, there is no prophet after me”, [Imam Ahmad – volume 2, page 398 and 412, volume 3 page 79 and 248, volume 4, page 81, 84, 127 and 128, volume 5, page 278; al-Bukhari (Fath al-Bari) number 3535; Muslim – number 2286 and 2287; Abu Dawud – number 4252].
With Allah is Success and Peace of Allah be upon his Messenger Muhammad and his Followers and Companions.
