The murder of Asad Shah was the religiously motivated hate killing of Asad Shah, an Ahmadiyya shopkeeper, in the Scottish city of Glasgow on 24 March 2016. The killer, a Sunni Muslim called Tanveer Ahmed, had driven from the English city of Bradford with the intent of confronting Shah about his religious views. Shah had issued Youtube videos in which he called for "peace, love and unity" around the world and even claimed the status of prophet. Because orthodox Sunni Muslims believe that Muhammad was the final prophet, Ahmed regarded Shah's claims as blasphemous, disrespectful to Muhammad and worthy of death.
