Hadīth of Hazrat ‘Alī ra and Lā Nabiyya Ba‘adī 113
بدی the Mount. It is to be noted that the word
[ba‘adī] here means ری [ghairī: besides me]. It
does not mean after me in time. As we say that
in:
فَمَنْ‏ يهَّْدِيْهِ‏ ۢ مِنْ‏ بَعْدِ‏ ٰ اهللّ‏ ِ ؕ
(Who, then, will guide him other than
Allāh? 103 ). aاالله بد [ba‘d-Allāh] means other than
Allāh.
He further states in the same book:
Here the word بدی [ba’adī] is not in the context
of ازa بدت [after his time] because Hazrat
Hārūn as did not outlive Hazrat Mūsā as . Hence,
the implied conclusion was not for a period
after the Holy Prophet sa for Hazrat ‘Alī ra . As a
result, there was no reason to make the
exception of a period after the Holy Prophet sa
for Hazrat ‘Alī ra .
Farhan Khan is more than welcome to disagree with the
reformer of the 12 th century. It is up to him. The argument given
by Hazrat Shāh Waliullāh Mohaddes Dehlavī is irrefutable. The
word ba‘ad can only mean beside in this context because Hazrat
Hārun as died during the lifetime of Hazrat Mūsā as and was a
prophet beside him, as his helper. The Holy Prophet
Muhammad sa only stated that there is no prophet beside him, as
his helper. The Ahmadiyya Muslim understanding is always
