Continuation of Prophethood according to the Holy Qur’ān 255
but in reality it is quite the opposite. No one knows the Holy
Qur’ān better than Allāh Who revealed it. He, Himself, has
made it clear that ma‘a means min (among) by using min in the
same verse! As a result, Ahmadī Muslims do not conform the
word ma‘a to mean min. It is Allāh Who has done so!
Nevertheless, let us assume for a minute that Farhan Khan
is right. What would be the meaning then? The answer is that
the verse would then mean that those people who obey Allāh
and His Messenger sa cannot become prophets and can only be
with the prophets; they cannot be the truthful but be with the
truthful; they cannot be the witnesses but only be with the
witnesses; and they cannot be righteous but only be with the
righteous. In other words, in the ummah of the Holy Prophet
Muhammad sa , no one can become a righteous person, a witness,
a truthful person, or a prophet. The application of these
meanings to the Holy Qur’ān is unacceptable and ridiculous
and Farhan Khan does not address this argument in his entire
chapter!
If Farhan Khan insists that this is about the union of the
believers with the prophets, the truthful, the martyrs, and the
righteous in the next life, the meaning would still be
unacceptable! It would mean that within this life, there will be
no righteous man in the nation of the Holy Prophet
Muhammad sa and they can only be with the righteous in the
next life, God forbid!
The fact of the matter is that being righteous is the lowest
of the four spiritual stages and if a person cannot be righteous in
this life, how can he/she even enter into heaven? If one cannot
achieve this lowest spiritual status in this life, then what is the
benefit of being obedient to Allāh and His Messenger sa ? What
was the reason to reveal the verse? Such a meaning is
unacceptable and should be discarded with those books which
