Jesus in India (book)

Jesus in India (Urdu: Masīh Hindustān Meiń) is a treatise written by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, the founder of the Ahmadiyya Movement. The treatise, which was then published as a book, discusses Jesus’ possible survival from crucifixion and his subsequent migration towards Kashmir in order to preach to the 'Lost Tribes of Israel'. Ghulam Ahmad argues his case with reference to Christian as well as Muslim scriptures and medical and historical books including ancient Buddhist records, although the viewpoints are rejected in orthodox Muslim and Christian teachings. Jesus in India is often cited as original source material in literature that deals with the issue of Jesus’ putative post-crucifixion life.
