Last Law-bearing Prophet sa 65<br />

accusations of Farhan Khan fall on the saints of the Muslim<br />

ummah, not the Ahmadī Muslims. This also exposes his<br />

dishonesty and his shallow attempt <strong>to</strong> lead people astray with<br />

his false accusations against Ahmadiyya, the True Islām.<br />

To prove this beyond a shadow of doubt, a few examples<br />

from the writings of great saints of the Muslim ummah are being<br />

presented here. Hazrat Muhy-ud-Dīn Ibn ‘Arabī rh , a great saint,<br />

expresses his belief in the following quotation:<br />

The prophethood which came <strong>to</strong> an end with the<br />

advent of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of<br />

Allāh be on him) was Tashrī’ī Nubuwwat [i.e., a<br />

prophet with a new book and new law]. There is no<br />

room for such prophethood after the Holy Qur’ān.<br />

This is the correct meaning of the hadith, which<br />

contains the Holy Prophet’s saying that there is <strong>to</strong> be<br />

no prophet after him. The hadith only conveys that<br />

after the Holy Prophet, there can be no prophet who<br />

will replace his sharī‘ah with another one. Henceforth,<br />

whenever any prophet comes, he will be subordinate<br />

<strong>to</strong> him and his sharī‘ah. 47<br />

Similarly, Sheikh Balī Āfandī wrote in Fusūs-ul-Hakam, “Khātamur-Rusul<br />

is one after whom no law-bearing prophet can come”. 48<br />

The famous saint, Hazrat Syed ‘Abd-ul-Karīm Gilānī wrote:<br />

<strong>With</strong> the advent of the Holy Prophet (peace and<br />

blessings of Allāh be on him), prophethood bearing a<br />

new law came <strong>to</strong> an end. The Holy Prophet (peace<br />

and blessings of Allāh be on him) was called Khātam-<br />
