Mirza Masroor Ahmad at Head

of the Ahmadiyya Muslim

Community

SUMMARY

The detractors of Ahmadiyyat deny the claim of the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) because of their obstinacy, egotism and vested interests and they persecute Ahmadis

This opposition is extending to the West, where civil liberties are safeguarded by the government; these governments are

generally fair

Hudhur (aba) commended the fairness of Dutch government in response to accusations from Dutch MP Mr. Geert Wilders

Hudhur (aba) explained the summary of his message to the Pope and described a meeting with the great grand son of

Henry Martin Clark

Hudhur (aba) gave the sad news of maryrdom of Maryam Khatoon sahiba in Pakistan

Islam Ahmadiyyat

There are others who also understand but out of fear of the so-called mullah

and by following him, continue to deprive themselves of this spiritual blessing

The detractors of Ahmadiyyat deny the claim of the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) because of their obstinacy,

egotism and vested interests

On the other hand, the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) has put forward thousands of arguments derived from the Holy Qur’an, Hadith and from commentaries of earlier scholars of

Islam supporting his advent

Though pious-natured people, for whom God had decreed guidance have accepted the Promised Messiah (on whom be

peace) and have the privilege to take his Bai’at

So-called maulwis and their cohorts have reached the extreme

pits of morality where in order to persecute Ahmadis, they do

not even desist from affronting the Holy Qur’an and the Holy

Prophet (pbuh) and put the blame on Ahmadis

Mullah throw pages of the Qur’an in the

sewer or rubbish heap

and incriminate Ahmadis

Their other tactic is to write the

name of our master, the

Holy Prophet (pbuh), in wrongful

manner and in wrongful spots and implicate Ahmadi children

For this our children are

expelled from the school,

they are beaten up and efforts

are made to file court

cases against these

innocent children for

affronting the Prophet (pbuh).

Such cases have a no-bail clause

and the penalty is extreme

Mullah and Persecution of Ahmadi children

Hudhur (aba) has often drawn attention that our

prayers should only revolve around the progress of

Ahmadiyyat, true Islam, so that God brings about the

chastisement of those who have exceeded limits in

cruelty in the name of God. They are trying to

discredit God, Islam and the Holy Prophet (pbuh)

Prayers for Pakistan

The cries of the victims work when

such immorality takes place

Hudhur (aba) said we should also pray that the pious-natured among

them are enabled to give the salaam of the Holy Prophet (peace and

blessings of Allah be on him) to the Imam of the age

Persecution of Ahmadis

Fact is that a large majority does not wish to understand the message of Ahmadiyyat due to

unawareness and out of fear

Or there are those who understand, but are in fear of the laws of the land

And out of fear of the mullah, law of the land does not allow Ahmadis full citizens’ rights

It is not that the majority of Muslims are a part of the current disorder and

cruelty Today it is not the rule of

law, rather it is rule of

mullah

The true status of the Promsied Messiah (on whom be

peace)

• This is incorrect.

Mullah has put it in the minds of the uninformed that God forbid, Ahmadis consider Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam

Ahmad (peace be on him) the last Prophet

We say that the true and

ardent devotee of the Holy

Prophet (pbuh) came to bring

people of all religions to bow

to the Holy Prophet (pbuh).

The Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) silenced the world with

his arguments and reasoning and provided unassailable defence of Islam. Not

only did he stop the onslaught of the enemy, he made them retreat. His

arguments and reasoning left no choice for the attackers of Islam to take flight.

‘Proclaim, truth has arrived and falsehood has vanished, indeed falsehood is bound to vanish. Every blessing is from Muhammadsa, then blessed is he who taught and he who was taught’ and further wrote: ‘All these revelations constituted a prophecy that

through me God Almighty will establish the truth of Islam and the falsehood of all other

faiths. That prophecy now stands fulfilled because no opponent has had the capacity or fortitude to prove the truth of his faith as

against me. Heavenly signs are being displayed at my hand and the verities and deeper meanings of the Holy Qur’an are

being set forth through my pen.

The true status of the Promised Messiah (on whom be

peace); A Divine Revelation

Arise and search everywhere in the world. Is there anyone from among the Christians or the Sikhs

or the Jews or the followers of any other faith who can

stand against me in exhibiting heavenly signs

and in setting forth verities and learning? I am the one

concerning whom this Hadith is found in the

authentic books of Hadith that in his time all religious

communities will be destroyed but Islam will

shine brighter than it ever did in the intervening

periods.

Mullah and persecution of Ahmadis

Opposition of the Holy Qur’an exhibition

Today, it is the community of the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) that the

teaching of Islam shines

It is his Community that is undertaking the task of

Tabligh under the auspices of Khilafat in Africa, Europe and other parts of the world to present a true picture of

Islam

The Community holds exhibitions of the Holy

Qur’an all over the world to expound its teachings in

response to the attacks of the enemies of Islam

These exhibitions make a very positive impact on public about true teachings of Islam

However, the mullah did not even desist from opposing our

exhibitions. An exhibition in Delhi had to be cut short because of furore

created by mullah who joined a few extremists

Mullah and Opposition of the Holy Qur’an exhibition

Recently a Qur’an

exhibition was being organised in a UK city but

the mullah raised

objections and the police

requested our administration to

cancel the exhibition

Hudhur (aba) said, ‘on

principle, such requests should be refuted with reasoning, but

the local Jama’at

accepted their request and

cancelled the exhibition

If we indulge the mullah in these

countries of established civil liberties, we will become those who promote

extremism even in this country

We should also make the authorities

understand this point very well

and should reorganise the

exhibition’

Hudhur (aba) said as mentioned before it is a general good point of Western

countries that everyone is the same in the eyes of law here, therefore, if

anyone impedes our work here, we should seek the help of law.

Fairness of Dutch government

During Hudhur’s recent European tour, he led a Friday Prayer in Holland and Hudhur gave a message to a

Dutch politician, an MP Geert Wilders

In that sermon, Hudhur (aba) had said that those who are excessive in disrespecting Islam and the Holy

Prophet (pbuh) should desist from it, or else fear God’s chastisement.

When it comes, God’s chastisement destroys the likes of the politician and God has the power to chastise

Hudhur (aba) had also said that we have no power but we will contend with the likes of the politician with

prayers

When the person in-charge

prepared a press release based on a

summary of this Friday sermon, Hudhur (aba)

told him to include the sentence in

which Hudhur (aba) had

mentioned that we do not have

any worldly weapons but we

pray that the politician and

people like him perish

December 9th 2011

Page 12: Islam Ahmadiyyat - The Truth Prevails

Fairness of Dutch government

Hudhur said we have been given the obligation to take the message of

Islam to the ends of the earth and to silence the enemy with reasoning.

Every Ahmadi is undertaking this task in accordance to his or her capacity.

Accusation

• Geert Wilders read the press

release and wrote to the

Dutch government

accusing this to be a

‘mischievous’ message

Response

• The Dutch interior minister responded that the purport of

Hudhur’s message was

that such people would perish through prayer and not

through any means of secular violence

Justice

• Hudhur(aba) said the

answers of the Dutch interior ministry are based on

justice and fairness

Message to the Pope

Recently the Ameer sahib of Kababir attended an inter-religious meeting with the Pope and conveyed a message of Hudhur (aba) to the Pope and high-

ranking priests at the Vatican

The letter of message was received personally by the Pope who was also given a copy of the Holy

Qur’an with Italian translation

Hudhur (aba) gave the summary of this message in which he wrote to the Pope that he had a voice in the world and had a large following, therefore he should try that all world religions get together and

work for peace and recognise the One Creator

A Divine Sign

Hudhur (aba) said a very infamous law

case was filed against the Promised

Messiah (on whom be peace) by a priest

named Henry Martin Clark in order to

avenge the defeat of Christians by the

Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) in a religious debate

The Promised Messiah (on whom

be peace) was honourably acquitted of by the judge of the

time, Captain Douglas, who the Promised Messiah

(on whom be peace) entitled Pilate II

Recently the great-grandson of Henry

Martin Clark came to see Hudhur (aba) after tracing his

genealogy

The Promised Messiah’s (on whom be

peace) book ‘Jang e Moqaddas’ gives a

detailed account of this while his book

‘Kitab ul Bariyyah’ relates the false

court case for murder that Martin Clark

had filed

Hudhur (aba) said

people come to meet

him all the time but in

this meeting what the

great-grandson said is a

sign of the truthfulness

of the Promised Messiah

(on whom be peace

December 9th 2011

Page 15: Islam Ahmadiyyat - The Truth Prevails

A Divine Sign

It was explained to him by Asif Sahib of MTA that some harsh words the Promised Messiah (on whom be

peace) had to use for Martin Clark were because of his inflexibility

If the account of the debate is read, it becomes very clear that Islam was victorious but he continued to raise slogans that Christianity had won

On which the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) had said that prayer should be made for God to show clear

sign

At this, the great-

grandson said,

‘God has certainly

shown a sign even

today.’

In any way, today God

is demonstrating the

truth of the Promised

Messiah (on whom be

peace) through the

children of enemies of

Islam.

December 9th 2011

Page 16: Islam Ahmadiyyat - The Truth Prevails

The Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) said whoever rejected him in fact rejected God and His Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) because whoever accused him of falsehood, prior to doing so, God

forbid, considered God false although he could see that internal and

external disorders had exceeded limits. And in spite of God’s promise of ‘Verily, We Ourselves have

send down this Exhortation, and most surely We will be its

Guardian’ (15:10) reformation of these people had not been arranged.

The Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) wrote

December 9th 2011

Page 17: Islam Ahmadiyyat - The Truth Prevails

The Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) wrote

God has promised in Ayat e Ishtakhlaf that

just like the Mosaic dispensation, He would

establish successors in the Muhammadan

dispensation as well, but God forbid, He

has not fulfilled His promise. The Quranic

assertion that the Holy Prophet (peace and

blessings of Allah be on him) was a

Prophet in the Mosaic tradition will also

have to be denied, God forbid, because it

was essential for the congruity that a

Messiah should appear in the fourteenth

century from this Ummah, just as a

Messiah had appeared in the fourteenth

century of the Mosaic dispensation.

Similarly the Quranic verse: ‘And among others from

among them who have not yet joined them…’ (62:4)

would have to be denied because it gives the tiding of the advent of the Messiah. Likewise many other verses of the Qur’an would have to be denied, in fact, the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) said with conviction that the entire Qur’an would have to be abandoned. He remarked, ‘consider then, is

accusing me of falsehood, an easy matter?’

December 9th 2011

Page 18: Islam Ahmadiyyat - The Truth Prevails

‘Do not thrust your hand into fire lest the fire should flare up and consume it.

Remember well that had this been man’s doing, there would have been

many who would have destroyed it and it would not have survived for twelve years, which is an age of maturity. Do you recall any impostor who, having

falsely claimed converse with God, has survived for such a long time? It is a pity

that you do not reflect nor recall the verses of the Holy Qur’an, wherein God

says with reference to the Holy Prophetsa, that had he falsely attributed

the smallest thing to God, He would have severed his jugular vein.

The Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) wrote

Who is dearer to God

than the Holy Prophetsa,

that he should not only

survive such a great

imposture, but should be

enriched by Divine

bounties?

December 9th 2011

Page 19: Islam Ahmadiyyat - The Truth Prevails

The Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) wrote

Brothers! refrain from self-

deception and be not obstinate in

matters which are specially in the

knowledge of God. Break your

habits, become new men and tread

along the paths of righteousness

so that He may have mercy on you

and may forgive your sins. Fear

God and restrain yourselves. Is

there not one among you who is

rightly guided? If you do not desist,

God will soon bring help to His

servant and will break up his

enemies and you will be able to do

him no harm
