Mirza Tahir Ahmad (Urdu: مرزا طاہراحمد) (18 December 1928 – 19 April 2003) was Khalifatul Masih IV (Arabic: 'khalīfatul masīh al-rābi ,خليفة المسيح الرابع) and the head of the worldwide Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. He was elected as Caliph on 10 June 1982, the day after the death of his predecessor, Mirza Nasir Ahmad.
In 1974 he was nominated as a member of the Ahmadiyya delegation which appeared before the Parliament of Pakistan to defend the beliefs of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. Following the Ordinance XX that was promulgated by the government of Pakistan in 1984, which rendered the Khalifatul Masih unable to perform his duties and put the very institution in jeopardy, Tahir Ahmad left Pakistan and migrated to London, England, provisionally moving the headquarters of the community to the Fazl Mosque in London. As Khalifatul Masih IV, Tahir Ahmad attended the 100th Annual Jalsa Salana (annual gathering) being held in Qadian, India in 1991. It was the first time an Ahmadiyya Caliph had returned to Qadian since the partition of India in 1947, when the community relocated from India to Pakistan.
Mirza Tahir may refer to:
Ahmad, Ahmed or Ahmet are the principal transliterations of an Arabic given name, أحمد.
Ahmad comes from the Arabic triconsonantal root of Ḥ-M-D, meaning "highly praised", which in turn implies "one who constantly thanks God." Several Arabic names are derived from this root word.
The name Ahmad has its origins in a prophecy attributed to Jesus, in the Quran in Surah 61: As-Saff (The Ranks). Some Muslim scholars see the names parallel in the word 'Paraclete' in the biblical text. This view is not universal considering translations, meanings and etymology.
Regarding Ibn Ishaq's biography of Muhammad, the Sirat Asul Allah, Islamic scholar Alfred Guillaume wrote:
Other Arabic names from the same root include Mahmud, Ahmed, Hamed, Muhammad and Hamid. The name has one of the highest number of spelling variations in the world.
Here are three translations of the passage in question in Surat 61 verse 6:
- Sahih International
Mirza (/ˈmɜːrzə/ or /mɪəˈzɑː/) is a historical title of Persian origin, denoting the rank of a high nobleman or Prince. It is usually defined in English as a royal or imperial Prince of the Blood.
Today, Mirza is used as a name to identify patriarchal lineage to royal aristocracies of Eastern Europe, Central Asia, and the Indian Subcontinent. Historically, it was used as a title by and signified patriarchal lineage to the imperial families of the Turkish Empire, Persia, Circassia, Shirvan, Mughals (aka Moguls) and Muslim Rajputs. It was also a title bestowed upon members of the highest aristocracies in Tatar states, such as the Khanates of Kazan and Astrakhan.
Under Catherine the Great, empress of Russia, the Mirzas gained equal rights with the Russian nobility due to their extreme wealth. In return, the Mirzas financed her Russo-Turkish war against the Ottoman Empire. Abdul Mirza was given the title Prince Yusupov, and his descendant Prince Felix Yusupov married a niece of Tsar Nicholas II of Russia.
In Islamic context, Taher (alternatively spelled Tahir and Tahar in French; Arabic: طاهر, Ṭāhir; pronounced [tˤɑːˈher] pronounced [tˤɑːˈhɪr] or [Ṭāher]) refers to purity and cleanliness in accordance with religious rituals. It is also a name in several Islamic cultures.

General Zia ul Haq, Pakistan's Dictator in the 1980s made life a living hell for Pakistani Ahmadis. He introduced the infamous Ordinance XX that criminalized the daily lives of Ahmadis around the country. Thousands were rounded up. Many Ahmadi businesses were burnt down, people killed or forced to leave. The fourth Khalifa of the community, who miraculously emigrated under these conditions, warned Zia of the wrath of God if he did not stop persecuting his citizens. Just 5 days before his plane "blew out of the sky," Mirza Tahir Ahmad had warned him of his end. Clips courtesy: MTA International.
