Resolution of Condolence
On the demise of the respected Syed Mir Mahmood Ahmad Nasir Sahib
The students, teachers and staff of Jamia Ahmadiyya UK hereby express their heartfelt feelings of grief and sorrow at the sad passing of the long-standing servant of the Ahmadiyya Jamaat and valiant helper of Khulafa-e-Ahmadiyyat, the revered Syed Mir Mahmood Ahmad Nasir Sahib, former Principal of Jamia Ahmadiyya Pakistan.
اِنَّا لِلّٰہِ وَاِنَّا اِلَیۡہِ رٰجِعُوۡنَ
[‘Surely, to Allah we belong and to Him shall we return.’]
The late Syed Mir Mahmood Ahmad Nasir Sahib, by virtue of his close link with the blessed family of the Promised Messiahas, and owing to his family heritage and personal qualities, was a distinguished personality who also possessed outstanding prowess in religious sciences and spiritual insights. Every moment of his trustful life was dedicated to serving humanity for the sake of Allah. On Sunday, 11 May 2025, he returned to his True Master, leaving millions of devoted members of the Ahmadiyya Community bereaved.
His very being was a vessel of immense spiritual blessings. By being the nephew of the revered Mother of the Faithful, Hazrat Sayyidah Nusrat Jahan Begumra (Amma Jan), the Promised Messiahas was, therefore, his uncle by marriage (husband of his paternal aunt) – a relationship of great closeness. He was also the son-in-law of Hazrat Musleh-e-Maudra, […] the illustrious grandson of Hazrat Mir Nasir Nawabra; and the noble son of Hazrat Mir Muhammad Ishaqra. From the moment he entered the academic arena until his last breath, he was enabled to render colossal, invaluable and unparalleled services to the Jamaat – too numerous to recount here.
After pledging a life-devotion [waqf-e-zindagi], he took up the mission of continuing the services of his respected father and, until his return to the Creator, honoured that pledge magnificently, never allowing a single moment of his life to be devoid of service to faith. Immediately thereafter, he entered Jamia Ahmadiyya, completed his religious studies and subsequently his secular education; fully equipped with knowledge and virtue, he stepped into the field of service and rendered countless services.
ذٰلِکَ فَضۡلُ اللّٰہِ یُؤۡتِیۡہِ مَنۡ یَّشَآءُ
[‘That is Allah’s grace; He bestows it on whom He pleases.’]
Syed Mir Mahmood Ahmad Nasir Sahib was enabled to serve as:
• Missionary of the Jamaat in London, the USA and Spain;
• Lecturer and later Principal of Jamia Ahmadiyya Pakistan;
• Wakil-ut-Tasnif (Director of Publications) and Wakil-ut-Talim (Director of Education) at Tahrik-e-Jadid Anjuman Ahmadiyya, Pakistan.
Similarly, he served in various capacities within the auxiliary organisations Khuddam-ul-Ahmadiyya Markaziyyah and Ansarullah Pakistan; as Deputy Officer for Jalsa Salana Pakistan; and as a member of the Majlis-e-Ifta, the Tadwin-e-Fiqh Committee, the Khilafat Library Committee, the revision committee for the Translation of the Holy Quran by Hazrat Khalifatul Masih IVrh, the Topics Committee for Jalsa Salana speeches, and the Orphans’ Committee.
Under Majlis-e-Irshad, he, along with other scholars, was often granted the honour of addressing sittings held in Masjid Mubarak.
Hazrat Amirul Mominin, Khalifatul Masih Vaa founded the Noor Foundation in 2005 and appointed him its President, a post he held until his demise. Gifted with the command of more than six languages, he was a great researcher, thinker, Hadith scholar and translator – a prodigy of his era. He was exceedingly lively and quick-witted; a gentle humour and subtle wit adorned his conversation. Frank in speech and guileless in manner, he was also deeply devoted to worship. A first-rate orator, he also excelled in teaching the Quran and Hadith. His habit of reading was unparalleled; apart from a few hours’ rest each night, he was ever engrossed in work. In matters of Jamaat funds, he exercised the utmost caution. His lifestyle and habits were extremely simple; until health no longer permitted, his sole conveyance remained a bicycle. His heart brimmed with love and affection for the students, who in turn loved him and felt at ease in his company. Hundreds of his pupils are presently serving the faith across the world.
We pray to Allah the Almighty that He may grant Syed Mir Mahmood Ahmad Nasir Sahib a place among His loved ones, continue to raise his ranks, bestow upon him an exalted station in Jannat-ul-Firdaws, be the Protector and Helper of his progeny in every respect, and make them heirs to his prayers and virtues. Amin.
All the teachers of Jamia UK, humbly represented before our Master, Hazrat Khalifatul Masih Vaa, together with every member of the blessed family of the Promised Messiahas, the bereaved family and descendants of the respected Mir Sahib, all his pupils, and the members of the worldwide Ahmadiyya Jamaat, express profound sorrow and grief. We all supplicate that the void created in the Jamaat by the passing of Syed Mir Mahmood Ahmad Nasir Sahib may, through Allah’s grace, be filled, and that He may raise many worthy replacements for him.
Amin, O Most Merciful of those who show mercy.
Wassalam
