Majlis Khuddamul Ahmadiyya Pledge

He it is Who created you from clay, and then He decreed a term. And there

is another term fixed with Him. Yet you doubt!’ And He is Allah, the

God, both in the heavens and in the earth. He knows your inside and your

outside. And He knows what you earn... (Chapter 6: Verse 3-4)

On 23 January 2015 Hazrat Khalīfatul-Masīh V(May Allāh be his Helper) delivered the Friday Sermon at Baitul Futuh Mosque, London UK

The Promised Messiah(as) adored his children, especially his young son Mubarak Ahmad.

He once felt pain in his ribs when lying down which was not alleviated by warm compress. It

turned out that there was a broken piece of brick in his pocket which had caused the pain.

The piece of brick was in his pocket because young Mahmood (Hazrat Musleh Maud) had

given it to his blessed father for safekeeping and he had lovingly kept it in pocket.

A debate with Abdullah Atham, a Christian missionary is published in the Promised

Messiah’s book ‘Jung e Muqadas’. This was after the Promised Messiah(as) had claimed to

be the Messiah and the Maulawis had passed their edicts of disbelief and ‘liable to be killed’

on him. Yet when he was asked by non-Ahmadis to speak at a debate with a Christian he

readily agreed to uphold the honour of the Holy Prophet(saw) and Islam.

When Abdullah Atham did not die within 15 months people raised clamour and derision

that the prophecy was false. One of the companions of the Promised Messiah(as) responded

with grandeur that who said Atham was alive, he was like a dead man walking. Indeed,

some people appear alive but are in fact dead while others appear dead but are living, like

those who die in the cause of God. And some ‘living’ people appear dead to those with

spiritual insight. Atham not only met his spiritual death but also physical death after a short

while.

When Atham had heard the words of the prophecy he went pale, started trembling and

repented. He was frightened and following this he stopped his opposition and did not write

anything hostile, and ultimately met his end. The prophecy about Atham was indeed

conditional and had he had confidence in his belief of Jesus Christ he would not have been

so perturbed. The prophecy said that if he was inclined to the truth, it did not say if he

became a Muslim.

The Promised Messiah(as) often said that Hazrat Abu Huraira(ra) was not as judicious as

the other Companions. Most of the Ahadith that Christians quote to make their points are

narrated by Hazrat Abu Huraira(ra) who could narrate traditions out of context. Similarly

there are some traditions of the Promised Messiah(as) which have been narrated out of

context.

Hazrat Musleh Maud(ra) gave a sermon in which in advised Jama’at to avoid conflicts as he

said the Jama’at had attained maturity. He then informed the congregation that a person

had been excommunicated after which he started the second [Arabic] part of his sermon

when a person stood up and asked what was the person who had been excommunicated

while another remarked that one does not talk during sermon.

By: Sahibzada Mirza Muzaffar Ahmad

He had infinite love for the Jamaat. I clearly remember how he paced up and down the verandah

in Rattan Bagh, Lahore with a small size Quran in his hand as soon as a caravan of Ahmadis left

Qadian and moved towards Pakistan border. Almost throughout this period he prayed quietly and

constantly and would not rest until the caravan had crossed the border safely.

It is also in my knowledge that at times of crises for the Jamaat, he stopped sleeping in the comfort

of his bed and would sleep on the floor praying all the time until God assured him of success and

resolution of the crisis. At times on such occasions he would feel a soft touch of a twig and a

charming voice urging him to get up and sleep on the bed.

Another occasion which left a deep and abiding impression on my mind was when shortly after our

marriage (when I was posted as Assistant Commissioner, Multan, and was temporarily living with

my wife's maternal uncle, Colonel Habibullah Shah Sahib, who was Superintendent Central Jail),

Hazur stopped for the night on his way to Sind. One evening he took me to the Drawing Room and

asked me to sit next to him on the sofa. He told me that as a member of ICS, I would have

opportunities to move around in higher circles but this should never stop me from caring for the

poor and under-privileged. Referring to the furniture which prevents or discourages a poor man to

reach you is not fit to have. He mentioned how every poor person had equal access to the Holy

Prophet and that is the true example to follow. He had tears in his eyes and spoke in choked voice

as he said all that. Of course my own state of mind and condition can be imagined rather than

described as I had hardly ever seen him so moved and sentimental.

The other strong impression which I carry is his hard work and untiring efforts in the service of

Islam and Ahmadiyyat. I can still remember seeing him sitting on the floor in a room covering

himself with a chocolate color Dhussa (a soft Kashmiri blanket), with about a dozen or so long stem

candles lit on an over turned box reading or writing often late at night. He had a sensitive throat

which was the effect of kerosene oil, and therefore he used candles as there was no electricity in

those days in Qadian. It came probably in early 1930s and in the period before that the working

conditions placed an extra severe strain.

In periods of crisis I have seen Hazur work throughout the night without a wink of sleep and going

from work straight to mosque for Fajr prayers. He would write a memorandum and sometime he

would send it in bits and pieces to my father for translation or sometime for his views in the

matter. We, as young boys, shuttled carrying those notes back and forth.

His (Hazrat Musle e Mau’ood) Infinite Love for the Jama’at

Muhtamim Sihat-e-Jismani

Handsome and Pious Son, a Righteous Servant Will Be Given To You

In addition to other signs in the prophecy one sign pertains to him being pious and handsome. In this regard Mr. M. Aslam writes his impression, "We were delighted to meet with Sahibzada Mirza Bashiruddin Mahmood Ahmad. Sahibzada Sahib is an extremely courteous and modest man. In addition to being courteous, he is also a very profound thinker.... I will always remember the piety, righteousness, broadmindedness and modesty of Sahibzada Sahib." (Ta'assurrat-e-Qadian, p.136-137)

Khan Bahadur Seth Ahmad Aladin of Hayderabad Deccan writes, "Respected Mirza Bashiruddin Mahmood Ahmad Sahib has been specially kind and benevolent towards me. His practical life, broadmindedness and unwavering faith in Allah has always impressed me." (Al-Hakam, Jubilee No., 1931)

In 1924, on his journey to Europe, Huzoor stayed in Arab countries. During his stay in Arab countries, the press gave him extensive coverage. Here are some of the reviews of the Arab press.

1. Widely published newspaper "Akhbaar Al-Qabas", Damascus, wrote in its August 8, 1924 issue, "Indian delegation comprising of great religious scholars and learned people, led by the Imam of Ahmadiyya community, Mirza Bashiruddin Ahmad, arrived in the Capital (Damascus) and stayed in Central Hotel. During our audience with him, we observed his depth of religious knowledge, superior stature and his great devotion and dedication to Islamic interests and related matters."

2. Journal "Alif Wal Ya", in its August 9, 1924, issue, writes about their experience about an audience with Huzoor, "We met with him as representatives of our newspaper and we found that he was encircled by many of his companions. We could clearly see the signs of piety and righteousness and their love and devotion for their leader and Imam on their faces. We also saw two of the renowned scholars of Damascus, Maulvi Bahajatul Batar and Ahmad Al-noor Balaqi and quite a few of the educated young men of Damascus in his company. We observed that he spoke fluent Arabic and would frequently quote Quranic verses and sayings of the Holy Prophet (saw) to support his arguments and if he could not remember any Hadeeth or Quranic verse then he would use logic. And this Mahdi Sahib (Hazrat Imam Jamaat) is of average height and wears his national Indian dress and wears a white turban. He is extremely intelligent, speaks fluently and with great command and use powerful arguments in his support. He neither gets tired nor gets bored from discussions and arguments."

3. The same newspaper writes in its August 10, 1924 issue, "He was talking in Arabic language which very much resembled the literary Arabic. He was middle aged (between 30 and 40 years of age). His immense intelligence is apparent from his facial features. And his audience gets very much impressed with his gracefulness and magnificence."

4. Another famous newspaper of Damascus, "Fatal Arab", in its August issue, writes, "He is in 40th year of his life. His facial features reflect his intense intelligence. He sports a full black beard. He has wheat complexion. Majesty and magnanimity is evident from his face. His eyes reflect extraordinary knowledge and intelligence. When you face him you realize that you are standing in front of a person who understands you very well before you could understand him. He is always smiling which sometimes is hidden and sometimes becomes apparent. You will marvel at the meanings and awe hidden behind this smile."

Hazrat Musleh Mau'ood, Khalifatul Masih II,

in the Eyes of Non-Ahmadis

“When the voice of the Khalifatul

Massih reaches the Ahmadis

around the world through MTA

then we must follow his advice,

otherwise we will fall short of our

pledge of bai’at.” (Friday sermon 22 June 2012)

Through this important scheme many Ahmadiyya Muslim Missions were established the

world over. In 1934, the Majlis-e- Ahrar, according to a well laid conspiracy, sent some of its

volunteers to create mischief by organising conferences at Qadian. And, with great uproar

and drum-beat announced that they would destroy Qadian itself. The atmosphere in the

rest of the country was also vitiated for the Jamaat. Government was also backing these

elements. It seemed all the forces had combined against Ahmadiyyat. However, the

foundations of this holy Jamaat were laid by the Lord of Heavens Himself, in the face of the

strong and piercing winds of opposition, provision to safeguard the meek and delicate plant

of Ahmadiyya was to be made by God Himself. As the nefarious intentions of the Majlis-e-

Ahrar unfold, Allah through His chosen Servant, initiated a great Universal Scheme of

Tehrik-e-Jadid, which not only brought to naught, the plans of the opponents, in a very

short time the truth of Ahmadiyyat also became manifest and the flags of its Spiritual

Conquest and Supremacy were pitched firmly and high. This scheme was based on 27

demands and contained comprehensive and all embracing provisions by which every

member of the Jamaat was convinced that in order to establish the Oneness of God, to

restore the dignity of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him), and to prove the truth of Islam

and to establish a righteous society one had to first bring about a palpable and manifest

change in his own life and conduct as well.

Report by

Mansoor Cheema

Muhtamim Khidmat e Khalq

By the Grace of Almighty

Allah, Majlis Khuddamul

Ahmadiyya New Zealand

organised a New Year’s

Day clean up of four public

parks in Auckland. When

our beloved Imam,

Khalifatul Massih V (aba)

met with the National

Khuddam Amla in October

2013, His Holiness instructed

that a regular New Year’s

clean up initiative should be

started in New Zealand.

For a second year in a row, by

the grace of Almighty

Allah Majlis Khuddamul

Ahmadiyya New Zealand organized a New

Year’s Day clean-up of selected parks in Auckland. This year around 27 Khuddam, Ansar and Atfal

volunteers took to the parks in central Auckland equipped with council supplied gear to clean up after New Year

celebrations. This is just a small step towards ensuring that we all take responsibility of keeping our country clean

and beautiful as citizens of this country.

It is a religious responsibility to maintain loyalty to our country by making a positive contribution to the society.

Not only will this enable Muslims to fulfill their duties as citizens, it should help to promote a greater appreciation

of the true teachings of Islam among the local population.

On completion of the cleaning the volunteers enjoyed refreshments and made their way back to Baitul Muqeet

Mosque for prayers. The litter clearance activity was a very successful event with a good turnout and media

coverage on radio and online news agencies both locally and internationally, Masha Allah.
