HadithAnas (ra) relates that theHoly Prophet, peace andblessings of Allah be uponhim, said: Allah says: Whena servant of mineadvances towards Me afoot, I advance towardshim a yard, and when headvances towards Me ayard, I advance towardhim the length of his armsspread out. When hecomes to Me walking, I goto him running. (Bukhari)Medina MosqueWritings of the Promised Messiah (as)God Almighty is not held back from expositionof the claim of the Holy Prophet (saw). Hecame like a sun and manifested his light fromevery point of view. He who turns away fromthis true sun, will come to no good. We cannotcredit such a one with a good faith. Cananyone who is afflicted with leprosy andwhose limps are corrupted with leprosy, claimthat he is whole and is not in need oftreatment? Should he say so, can we credithim with good faith? Should such a personinsist that he cannot arrive at the truth of Islam,despite good faith and despite every effortsuch as he puts forth in his worldly affairs, hismatter rests with God. We have not comeacross any such person and we consider itimpossible that anyone equipped with reasonand a sense of justice should prefer some otherfaith to Islam. Foolish and ignorant peopleadopt the position under the dictates of theirlower selves that belief in the unity of God isenough, and that it is not necessary to followthe Holy Prophet (saw); but it is to be borne inmind that a Prophet is the mother of belief inUnity, who gives birth to it and points to theexistence of God. Who knows the exposition ofthe truth better than God Almighty the truth ofthe Holy Prophet (saw) and now in this age Hehas sent me and has displayed thousands ofsigns like heavy rain, which prove the truth ofthe Holy Prophet (saw). What then is lacking inthe full exposition of the truth? He who hassense enough to oppose why can he not thinkout the way of acceptance? He who pretendsthat he can see at night, why can he not seein the full light of day? Indeed the way ofacceptance is much easier than the way ofrejection...

An Ahmadi who claims tocome into the fold of the Bai’atof the Promised Messiah (as)should always keep these wordsin view, should reflect over themand should try to adapt one’s lifein accordance to them. Thisalone will make him/her one whohonours the dues of Bai’at.Otherwise it is a mere claim tosay that we are Ahmadi. Thetruth and the faith that thePromised Messiah (as) wished tobring, for which his advent tookplace and which inspires Taqwa(righteousness) is nothing new. Hiswords expressing that such a time‘comes once again’ signify thatsuch a time once was, but itceased to be and it is the task ofthe Promised Messiah (as) torevive it. Indeed, we are fullyaware that the era of truth andfaith with well-establishedrighteousness came with itsutmost glory and magnificencewhen God sent our master, theHoly Prophet (saw) andperfected Shariah. As the Qur’anstates: ‘…This day have Iperfected your religion for youand completed My favour uponyou and have chosen for youIslam as religion…’ (5:4). Thus noAhmadi can even remotelyimagine that the PromisedMessiah (as) brought any newmessage.When we assert that as Ahmadiswe have believed in thePromised Messiah (as), we needto reflect whether we have triedto bring about those changes inour faith which the Qur’anteaches and the Companions(ra) ofthe Prophet (saw) inculcated.Have we tried to instil that truth inourselves which a large numberof believers of the time of theProphet (saw) inculcated througha revolutionary change, have weinculcated that righteousnesswhich we read about and listento in the life of the Companions(ra)?The Promised Messiah (as)brought about such revolutionarychanges in his Companions (ra)and Hudhur often relates theiraccounts. After stating the words,‘I was sent so that the era of truthand faith comes once again andrighteousness is generated inhearts’, the Promised Messiah (as)said, ‘these practices are the realreason of my being’. ThePromised Messiah (as) has alsoaddressed his followers as‘evergreen branches of mybeing’.Page 3April-June 2011 ● Volume 2, Issue 4-6 ● Birmingham West
