Prophecy Continuous: Aspects of Ahmadi Religious Thought and Its Medieval Background

by Yohanan Friedmann

Since its inception in colonial India in 1889, the Ahmadi movement has been, arguably, the most controversial movement in modern Islam. Friedmann provides an interesting insight into the origin and spread of a proselytizing mission that claims prophetic status for its founder, inviting the
vehement opposition of the Sunni orthodoxy, that holds Muhammad to be the last prophet.

[Muhammed Ahmed · Rating 3 out of 5]

Isn't the best book written but the efforts are enough to give readers a general view about the tenets of Ahmedi. It is a short book but could've been shorter. Very repetitive in areas too.
