Last Law-bearing Prophet sa 85<br />

the prophets that came after him used the same law to judge<br />

among the Jews:<br />

اِانَّۤ‏ اَنْزَلْنَا التَّوْرٰ‏ ىةَ‏ فِيهْ‏ ‏َا هُدًى وَّنُوْرٌ‏ ۚ يحَ‏ ‏ْكمُ‏ ُ بهِ‏ ‏َا النَّبِيُّوْ‏ نَ‏ اذلَّ‏ ‏ِيْنَ‏ اَسْ‏ لَمُوْا<br />

لِذلَّ‏ ‏ِيْنَ‏ هَادُوْا وَ‏ الرَّبّ‏ ‏ٰنِيُّوْ‏ نَ‏ وَالاْ‏ ‏َحْبَارُ‏ بِمَا ْ اس تُحْفِظُ‏ وْا مِنْ‏ كِتٰبِ‏ اهللّ‏<br />

وَكاَ‏ نُوْا عَلَيْهِ‏ شُ‏ هَدَآءَ‏ فَلاَ‏ تخَ‏ ‏ْشَ‏ وُا النَّاسَ‏ وَاخْشَ‏ وْ‏ نِ‏ وَلاَ‏ تَشْ‏ ترَ‏ ‏ُوْ‏ ا<br />

ابِ‏ ‏ٰيٰتىِ‏ ْ ثَمَنًا قَلِيْ‏ ‏ًلا ؕ وَمَنْ‏ لَّمْ‏ يحَ‏ ‏ْكمُ‏ ْ بِمَاۤ‏ اَنْزَلَ‏ اهللّ‏<br />

الْكٰفِرُ‏ وْ‏ نَ‏ ۝<br />

ِ ٰ<br />

ِٕ كَ‏ همُ‏ ُ<br />

ٰ ُ فَاُولٰ‏ ٓ ى<br />

Surely, We sent down the Torah wherein was<br />

guidance and light. By it did the Prophets, who were<br />

obedient to Us, judge for the Jews, as did the godly<br />

people and those learned in the Law; for they were<br />

required to preserve the Book of Allāh, and because<br />

they were guardians over it. Therefore fear not men<br />

but fear Me; and barter not My Signs for a paltry<br />

price. And whoso judges not by that which Allāh has<br />

sent down, these it is who are the disbelievers. 75<br />

This verse very clearly declares that the Torah was a book of<br />

Law for the Jews and it was used by the later prophets to judge<br />

among the Jews. This argument is further enforced by the fact<br />

that the Jews used the law of the Torah throughout their history<br />

to judge among themselves. Farhan Khan tries to break this<br />

argument by stating the following:<br />

If this verse was taken in isolation, the Ahmadis<br />

would have a tenable position, but further analysis<br />

weakens their claims.<br />
