Can it be a Divine command that we should shoot dead or put to the sword an innocent person unknown to us and even unaware of our purpose? Can such faith have Divine origin as teaches its adherents the murder of guiltless human beings quite ignorant of its doctrines and excellences and then regards these inhuman deeds as leading to paradise? What a shameful and ignominious deed that we should shed the blood of a guiltless being who is neither at enmity with us, nor is he known to us and who is perhaps at the time buying something for his children at a merchant’s or is engaged in some other business of his own! - Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (as), the founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, preaching against the doctrine of violent Jihad as taught by his contemporaries and by many even today.
