134 With Love to Muhammad sa the Khātam-un-Nabiyyīn
there was a danger of confusion being made between the
revelation of the Holy Qur’an and others. Based on this
situation, the Holy Prophet sa only made this singular
interpretation of the word mubashirāt by saying that it refers to
“true dreams.” Allāma Ibn Hajar illustrates this further when he
writes:
aبَ‎د ْ
‏َان
و
aاِ‏ خْ‏ ت
aامa
‏َثْرَ‏ َ تہa‏ِ‏ نْ‏
‏ِک
ہa۔۔۔a ہaو َ aز َ
aارa ِ a‏َدورaالا ُ ِ ِ
aذَ‏ ِ نaاب ِa نِ‏ َ ْ ٔ ْ
ِ a ہaااللهaبِہِ‏ ُ َ َّ
‏ْسa
َ
ِ نْ‏
َ
He states that the frequency of revelation (for others) was
minimal close to the time of the Holy Prophet sa as compared to
the later period due to this secret of the Decree of Allāh that the
revelation of the Qur’ān may not be mixed with any other type
of revelation. 131
The Clue in the Word Al-Mubashirāt
The final point to be noted is that the word al-mubashirāt
indicates a very important message of the Holy Qur’ān. When
we search the Holy Qur’an for the mention of any bashārat or
glad tiding, we are obliged to say that there is a bashārat given to
the people by Hazrat ‘Īsā as with the very words:
وَمُبَشرّ‏ ِ ‏ًا بِرَسُ‏ وْلٍ‏ ايَّْتىِ‏ ْ مِنْ‏ ۢ بَعْدِىْ‏ اسمْ‏ ‏ُهٗ‏ ۤ اَحمْ‏ ‏َدُ‏
…giving glad tidings of a Messenger who will come
after me. His name will be Ahmad… 132 ’
