Ahmed has sent me a message , so if I still have the message , it is prefered to say ahmed sent me a message (past) , and if I don't know that I've received it or no , I use the present continious , .. that what I think , like for example the difference between i lost my keys and I've lost my keys ... , am I mestaken ..?

Peace be upon you brothers
We also use the Present Perfect Tense to talk about a past action that has the result in the present.
Imagine I have just checked my inbox and said: Ahmed has sent me a message. It is because I don't know yet when the message was sent. If I knew when, I would use The Simple Past because when using this latter we need to mention the specific time, or at least to have it in mind.
Allah bless you
