Muhammad Ali Mirza commonly known as Engineer Muhammad Ali Mirza (Urdu: انجینئر محمد علی مرزا) (born 4 October 1977) is a Pakistani Islamic commentator, preacher, and YouTuber.[3][4][5]
Personal life and career
Mirza was born in 1977 in Jhelum, a city in Punjab, Pakistan. He is a 19th grade engineer in a government department.[6][4][7]
Mirza gives online lectures where he talks about different religious and social issues and runs a research academy where he imparts religious education.[8][6][9] He has been criticized for a number of his speeches which have been deemed as derogatory towards Sahabah, Auliya and traditional scholars by his critics.[6][10]
Controversy
Mirza was arrested on 4 May 2020 in suspicion of spreading hate speech towards religious scholars.[11][8] Pakistani actor Hamza Ali Abbasi and anchor Shafaat Ali posted on social media condemning his arrest.[8] He was later released on 6 May 2020.[12][13][14] According to Mirza, one of his lecture was presented out of context. He later cited several books as well as the Qur'an in support of his opinion.[8][6]
Views
Mirza allegedly opined that present-day Ahmadis are better than the Kitabis. He later denied this and said that his video clips have been taken out of context.[6]
