Ahmadiyya (Indonesian: Ahmadiyah) is an Islamic branch in Indonesia. The earliest history of the community in Indonesia dates back to the early days of the Second Caliph. During the summer of 1925, roughly two decades prior to the Indonesian revolution, a missionary of the Community, Rahmat Ali, stepped on Indonesia's largest island Sumatra. He established the movement with 13 devotees in Tapaktuan, in the province of Aceh.[1] The Community has an influential history in Indonesia's religious development.[2] However, in the modern times it has faced increasing intolerance from religious establishments in the country and physical hostilities from radical Muslim groups.[3] The Association of Religion Data Archives estimates around 400,000 Ahmadi Muslims,[4] spread over 542 branches across the country.
