MURDERED shopkeeper Asad Shah was branded a "false prophet" by a Muslim group opposed to his strand of Islam, it emerged today.

Mr Shah - who was killed four hours after wishing friends and neighbours a "very happy Easter" - regularly posted videos of his peace-loving messages of goodwill.

Now it's emerged that two of his videos were used in November 2014 by a group opposed to his Ahmadi strand of Islam to label Mr Shah a false prophet.

The group, called Khatme Nubuwwat, put the films on video hosting site Daily Motion.

The group titled one of the films "Asad Shah False Prophet part 1". And it titled the other "Asad Shah False Prophet part 2".

The revelation is the first indication that Mr Shah's messages of peace and religious inclusion may have riled Muslim groups opposed to Armadi thinking prior to his "happy Easter" post last week.

It comes amid widespread outrage that trolls on the Facebook page of Khatme Nubuwwat have posted messages gloating in the death of Mr Shah, 40, who was stabbed at his Glasgow newsagents shop.

One of the gloating messages, which contains a link to a news story about the killing, said: "Congratulations to all Muslims."

The message has been liked 54 times with two likes coming from the UK - one from a web user in Leeds and one from Birmingham.

The Khatme Nubuwwat organisation has offices in London.

The organisation's website states it exists to "educate" Muslims about the "reality" of the Ahmadiyya community, which it does not agree with.

It says the Ahmadi belief that there were prophets after Mohammed is "false", describing their faith as "heretic".

Mr Shah was an active member of the Ahmadiyya Islamic community, which promotes "love for all, hatred for none".

Four hours before he was killed last Thursday night, he wrote: "Good Friday and a very Happy Easter, especially to my beloved Christian nation."

"Let's follow the real footstep of beloved holy Jesus Christ and get the real success in both worlds."

In previous posts, he spoke out against violence and hatred and called for "unconditional real love for all mankind".

A man from Bradford this afternoon appeared in court charged with Asad Shah's murder.
