Nabeel Asif Qureshi(Urdu:نبیل قریشی; April 13, 1983 – September 16, 2017) was an American Christian and convert from the Ahmadiyya sect of Islam. He was a speaker with Ravi Zacharias International Ministries (RZIM) from 2013 until 2016 and the author of three books,Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus: A Devout Muslim Encounters Christianity(Zondervan, February 2014),Answering Jihad: A Better Way Forward(Zondervan, March 2016), andNo God But One—Allah or Jesus(Zondervan, August 2016).

Qureshi was born in San Diego, California to Pakistani Ahmadiyya parents who immigrated to the United States. With his father in the U.S. Navy, he moved many times as a youth before settling in Virginia. In 2001 he attended Old Dominion University and served as the president of the Pre-Medical Honor Society. Qureshi also studied Islamic apologetics and engaged Christians in religious discussions. After one such discussion with a Christian at Old Dominion University, David Wood, the two became friends and began a years-long debate on the historical claims of Christianity and Ahmadiyya Islam. Qureshi's resulting conversion to Christianity was chronicled in his first book,Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus.

Qureshi attended medical school at the Eastern Virginia Medical School after graduating from Old Dominion University. After completing a medical degree, Qureshi decided to spend his life studying and preaching the Christian Gospel and became an itinerant preacher for Ravi Zacharias International Ministries. He subsequently completed three more master's degrees in theology and religious studies and was pursuing doctoral studies at the University of Oxford at the time of his death.
