Qadiani is a slur used to refer to members of the Ahmadi Muslims mainly in the country of Pakistan.^[1]^[2] The term orignates from the township of Qadian, India which is the birthplace of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, who founded the subsect of Shia Islam, the Ahmadiyya movement. While it is disliked by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, the term is used by official Pakistani documents to refer to Ahmadis.^[3]
