Statements of Hazrat Muhy-ud-dīn Ibn ‘Arabī rh 157
Ahmadiyya Muslim Stance:
One form of nubuwwah
continues after the Holy Prophet
Muhammad sa but it is lesser
than his prophethood in status
and contains no laws.
Farhan Khan’s understanding
of Ibn ‘Arabī rh :
One form of nubuwwah continues
after the Holy Prophet
Muhammad sa but it is lesser than
his prophethood in status and
contains no laws.
Despite the exactness of the premises of both arguments, Farhan
Khan insists that the Ahmadiyya Muslim understanding is
incorrect. How strange!
Secondly, it must be remembered that the term wahī ilhām
that Farhan Khan uses several times is new to Islām. It has not
been used by the Holy Qur’ān, the Holy Prophet Muhammad sa
or his Companions ra . It seems to be a latter-day innovation to
differentiate between wahī and ilhām when in fact they both
refer to the same thing. Farhan Khan says that it has been used
by Hazrat Imam ‘Abd-ul-Wahhāb rh but he fails to produce
quotations as proper evidence to his claims. The dictionary, Al-
Munjid, makes the following entry on the word wahī:
