each and every one. We call Allāh <strong>to</strong> Witness between us two,<br />

and Judge our differences.<br />

We believe the Holy Prophet <strong>Muhammad</strong> sa is the last<br />

law-bearing prophet as well as the greatest and the best prophet<br />

of Allāh. He predicted in very clear words the coming of a<br />

prophet in the Latter Days, who would serve his cause. That<br />

prophet has already come in the person of Hazrat [i.e., His<br />

Holiness] Mirzā Ghulām Ahmad as of Qādiān, India and he<br />

established the International Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamā‘at. He<br />

did not abrogate a single law of the Holy Qur’ān nor did he add<br />

anything new <strong>to</strong> it, and he came exactly according <strong>to</strong> the criteria<br />

how he accurately assessed their opinion, but his statement is a<br />

direct affront <strong>to</strong> the Holy Prophet <strong>Muhammad</strong> sa . Khan’s<br />

statement was made in complete disregard <strong>to</strong> the Holy<br />

Prophet’s numerous statements and the verdict of the Holy<br />

Qur’an, both of which clearly prove Hazrat ‘Īsā’s death and<br />

prophesy the coming of the Messiah as in the Latter Days. In<br />

other words, the Holy Prophet <strong>Muhammad</strong> sa himself<br />

emphasized the importance of this subject by discussing it<br />

repeatedly. Who, then, is Farhan Khan <strong>to</strong> say otherwise? The<br />

fact of the matter is that the above-quoted statement of Farhan<br />

Khan is either an excuse <strong>to</strong> avoid admitting the obvious death of
