With-Love-to-Muhammad

46 With Love to Muhammad sa the Khātam-un-Nabiyyīn
At this stage, man is granted four garments, that is,
existence, life, power, and ‘Aql [i.e., the ability to
think]. And ‘Aql is the Khātam-ul-Kul [i.e., best among
them all]. And it is necessary for Khātam to be the
‘Best’. Don’t you see that our Holy Prophet (peace
and blessings of Allāh be upon him) was the Khātamun-Nabiyyīn
in the sense of being the Afzal-ul-Anbiyā’
[Best of the Prophets] (upon whom be blessings and
peace)? And man is the Khātam-ul-Makhluqāt-ul-
Jismāniyyah [i.e., Seal of the created beings with
bodies] in the sense of being the best among them. In
the same sense, ‘Aql is the Khātam of the Garments
granted [to man] by Allāh – the Possessor of Majesty
– in the sense of being the best of the garments and
the most excellent. 29
This quotation is from a very well acknowledged Tafsīr of the
Holy Qur’ān and nobody can claim that the writer did not
follow the Usūl-ut-Tafsīr or that he tried to use an ‘evolved” or
“changed” meaning of the word khātam. In conclusion, it is now
proven that the Ahmadiyya Muslim interpretation of the word khātam
is completely in coherence with the Usūl-ut-Tafsīr!
One more thing that needs to be noted here is that Farhan
Khan illustrates his faulty point with a ridiculous example! He
quotes the following verse:
ِٕ اِنَّ‏ ٰ اهللّ‏ وَمَلٰ‏ ٓ ىكَتَهٗ‏ يُصَ‏ لُّوْ‏ نَ‏ عَلىَ‏
وَسَ‏ لّ‏ ‏ِمُوْا تَسْ‏ لِيْمًا
النَّبىِ‏ ّؕ يٰۤاَيهُّ‏ ‏َا اذلَّ‏ ‏ِيْنَ‏ اٰمَنُوْا صَ‏ لُّوْا عَلَيْ‏ ‏ِه
