interpretation, and historiography. The results of this study indicate that the emergence of the
Ahmadiyya caliphate was due to a message from Mirza Ghulam Ghulam Ahmad before his
death in 1908. Before his dealth, Ghulam wrote a book called Al-Wassiyat, in which it stated
that after his death there would appear a "second sign" called the Khalifah . The caliph, called
the Khalifatul Masih, will continue Ghulam Ahmad's mission to spread Islam throughout the
world.The number of his followers now around 150 million people are spread in almost 200
countries led by Khalifatul Masih V, Mirza Masroor Ahmad. He presided over Ahmadiyya
community around the world from the Central Headquarters in London, England.The spread
of Ahmadiyya teachings also succeeded to reach Indonesia in 1925 despite the pros and
cons reactions from the community.Although Ahmadiyya Community in Indonesia
considered astray and infidel but Ahmadiyya Community continues to survive.
