Ahmadiyya (officially, the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community or the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama'at; transliterated: al-Jamā'ah al-Islāmiyyah al-Aḥmadiyyah) is an Islamic religious movement founded in Punjab, British India, near the end of the 19th century.

It originated with the life and teachings of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (1835–1908), who claimed to have appeared in fulfilment of the prophecies concerning the world's reformer during the end times, who was to bring about, by peaceful means, the final triumph of Islam and herald the eschaton as predicted in Islamic scriptures as well as the traditions of various world religions.

He claimed to have been divinely appointed as the Mujaddid (renewer) of Islam, the promised Messiah and Mahdi awaited by Muslims.

The adherents of the Ahmadiyya movement are referred to as Ahmadi Muslims or simply Ahmadis.
