Last Law-bearing Prophet sa 87
Was Hazrat ‘Īsā as a Law-Bearing Prophet?
Before refuting the argument of Farhan Khan, it must be
stated that it was quite surprising to read such a ridiculous
argument presented by him. If not for the sake of the reader’s
benefit, we would have ignored this pathetic argument
altogether. Here is how this absurd argument is refuted in the
five-volume commentary of the Holy Qur’ān published by the
Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamā‘at, under the verse under discussion
[Sūrah Āle ‘Imrān, 3:51]:
Jesus came in fulfillment of the prophecies of the
previous prophets contained in the Torah. But he
brought no new Law, being a follower of Moses in
this respect. He himself was conscious of this
limitation of his authority. Says he: “Think not that I
am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not
come to destroy, but to fulfill. For verily I say unto
you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one
tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be
fulfilled” (Matt. 5:17, 18). The expression, to allow you
some of that which was forbidden to you, does not,
therefore, refer to any change or modification in the
Mosaic Law. The reference is only to those things
which the Jews had themselves rendered unlawful
for themselves. Elsewhere the Qur’ān says, so because
of the transgression of the Jews, We forbade them pure
things which had been allowed to them (4:161). Again,
Truly I am come to you with wisdom and to make clear to
you some of that about which you differ (43:64). These
verses show that there were differences among the
various sects of the Jews regarding the lawfulness or
