Question: What is the difference between the Muslims and the Ahmadiyyah (Qadianis)?
Response: The difference between the two is:
The Muslims are those who worship Allaah alone and follow His messenger Muhammad ﷺ and believe the he is the seal of [all] the prophets, and that there is no prophet [to come] after him.
As for the Ahmadiyyah who are followers of Mirza Ghulaam Ahmad, then they are disbelievers and not Muslims, because they claim that Mirza Ghulaam Ahmad is a prophet after Muhammad ﷺ, and whoever believes this ‘aqeedah then he is a disbeliever according to all the scholars of the Muslims, as Allaah سبحانه و تعالى says:
And because of what has been authenticated on the authority of the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ that he said:
And with Allaah lies all success and may Allaah send prayers and salutations upon our Prophet ﷺ and his family and his companions.
