Last Law-bearing Prophet sa 83<br />

For example, in Sūrah Nisā’, verses 163 and 164,<br />

Allāh says:<br />

163. Surely, We have sent revelation to thee, as We sent<br />

revelation to Noah and the prophets after him; and We sent<br />

revelation to Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob<br />

and his children and to Jesus and Job and Jonah and Aaron<br />

and Solomon, and We gave David a Book.<br />

164. And We sent some Messengers whom We have<br />

already mentioned to thee and some Messengers whom We<br />

have not mentioned to thee - and to Moses Allāh spoke<br />

at great length<br />

In verse 163, the Qur’ān says Allāh sent revelation<br />

to the prophets. Then, in verse 164, the Qur’ān ‏(اوحَيْنَا)‏<br />

specifies that Allāh spoke to Mūsā ( ). Notice<br />

the distinction between revelation and speech. This is<br />

because Mūsā as was one of the few prophets who<br />

spoke to Allāh directly, without the intermediary of<br />

an angel...<br />

كَلمَ‏ الله مُوس ‏ٰى<br />

This is Farhan Khan’s perspective on this subject and it has been<br />

presented in a very awkward manner and creates more<br />

confusion than clarity. As a result, the proper logic of the<br />

Ahmadiyya Muslim belief will now be explained.<br />

First, it must be noted that Allāh, the Exalted, ‘speaks’<br />

with all His prophets. There’s no basis for a distinction between<br />

‘speech’ ‏(‏م)‏ and revelation ‏(وح‏)‏ in the sense that Farhan Khan<br />

has presented above. Consider the Arabic wording of the<br />

following verse:
