Continuation of Prophethood according <strong>to</strong> the Holy Qur’ān 269<br />

A similar glad tiding is given in another verse of the<br />

Holy Qur’ān in a chapter where Allāh, the Exalted, has<br />

proclaimed many prophecies about the Latter Days. Allāh says:<br />

وَاِذَا الرُّسُ‏ لُ‏ اُقّ‏ ‏ِتَتْؕ‏ ۝<br />

And when the messengers are made <strong>to</strong> appear at the<br />

appointed time. 265<br />

Ahmadī Muslims do not accept Farhan Khan’s meanings<br />

because he says no prophet can come whereas Allāh says<br />

prophets can come with the condition of complete obedience <strong>to</strong><br />

Allāh and His Prophet <strong>Muhammad</strong> sa as fore<strong>to</strong>ld in the Holy<br />

Qur’ān (4:70).<br />

Finally, it must be noted that Hazrat Imām Jalāl-ud-Dīn<br />

Suyūtī rh has written the following about these verses in Sūrah<br />

Al-A‘rāf:<br />

266<br />

ْ د ُ َ مْ‏<br />

َبaنa ِ<br />

ابaلا َ َ ْ لِ‏ aذ ٰ ‏ِکaاز ََّ انِ‏ aو‏ُلّ‏<br />

‏َّہaخِ‏<br />

‏َاِ‏<br />

It is addressed <strong>to</strong> the people of that age and all the ages <strong>to</strong> come.<br />

Therefore, Farhan Khan’s understanding is rejected based on its<br />

absurdity, disconnect with the language of the Qur’ān, Arabic<br />

grammar, context of the verse, and the explicit statement of<br />

Hazrat Imām Jalāl-ud-Dīn Suyūtī rh .<br />

Question for Farhan Khan:<br />

1. Does he not believe that Muslims are the progeny of<br />

Adam as ?<br />
