The Promised Messiah and founder of the Jamaat Ahmadiyya Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani’s blessed son, Hazrat Mirza Bashiruddin Mahmood Ahmad (The Khalifatul Masih II and Musleh Mauod) married Hazrat Syeda Maryam Begum on 7th February, 1924. She was the daughter of Hazrat Dr. Abdul Sattar Shah, scion of an eminent Syed family. In his Nikah sermon, Syed Sarwar Shah Sahib, a venerable companion of the Promised Messiah said,
“I am now advanced in years and would soon pass away, But those who live would witness the advent of Servants of the faith born in this wedlock with a Syeda as occurred before. This is my resolute conviction.”
And so this Servant of the faith was born on 18th December, 1928. He grew up righteousness and virtuous under the guidance of his illustrious father and devout mother and with divine blessings. Once, during his childhood, he was asked by a well-know Ahmadi Savant, Maulana Abdul Rahim Nayyer, “Which reward would you cherish most for doing good work?” “Allah – Only Allah” was the 10 year old’s spontaneous answer.
The blessed personage was named Hazrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad. His erudition encompasses wide range of knowledge both spiritual and material

Whoever knows him cannot say but that he was the greatest man of his times.
His speech was very fluent soft and wonderfully Blessed with knowledge.
I loved the way he explained every matter. And when he would stop one would get the answer to its fullest. He would cover almost every aspect of possibility.
He has left a treasure of knowledge in from of Majlis-e-Irafm, Question answer sessions,Darsul- Quran, Khutubaas (Friday sermons) speeches, other programes and books.
People like him are not born everyday. He was a Blessing for the people of his times and will be a Blessing for forth coming generations. Inshallah.
I salute him for his greatness. One feels in short of words to praise him. May Allah shower His Blessings on him abundantly ever and ever.
A superb human being and an ardent lover of Holy Prophet (sm). May Allah grant him with the nearness of his Holy Master (sm)!
