Statements of Prophet Muhammad sa 95
the Czar told the prince that he disobeyed his order
and ordered the doorman to whip his son. The prince
pleaded, saying, “Your majesty, the law of the land
does not permit an ordinary man to whip an officer.”
Hearing this, the Czar elevated the doorman to the
post of a captain and ordered him to whip his son.
The prince pleaded again, saying “Your majesty, the
law of the land does not permit a junior officer to
whip a senior officer.” At this, the Czar made the
doorman a general and ordered the punishment to be
carried out. The son further pleaded, saying “Your
majesty, the law of the land forbids a person, who is
not a prince, from beating a prince.” Thereupon, the
Czar made the doorman a prince and ordered that
the punishment be carried out. Thus, an ordinary
soldier became a prince in a few moments and there
was no one who could stop that.
Would not our opponents concede as much authority to
the Holy Prophet sa as was wielded by the Czar of Russia?
The fact of the matter is that the Holy Prophet sa
possessed immeasurable honour and status both in
heaven and on earth. He calls the Messiah of the latter
days the Prophet of God four times consecutively in one
hadīth. Now, who is there to deprive him of this status?
Who can close this door that has been opened by him? 82
