Syed Taalay Ahmed Shaheed was the great grandson of Hazrat Mirza Bashir Ahmad (ra) and Mir Muhammad Ismail (ra). He was also the son-in-law of Ghulam Qadir Shaheed.

He completed his MA in Journalism from the university of Sunderland. He served his life - to its very end - as a very dear life-devotee of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, serving in different offices till he was appointed to the MTA News team full-time in 2016.

Syed Taalay Ahmed Shaheed produced a number of inspirational documentaries that showed his immense love for Khilafat-e-Ahmadiyya and he was also the one to initiate the very popular ‘This Week With Huzoor’ programme.

He was martyred on 24th August 2021 whilst working on a documentary really dear to him in Ghana. 

MTA International presents the story of Respected Syed Taalay Ahmed Shaheed’s special life, which saw him serve the Khalifa with pure devotion and love till his last breath.
