He is the son of Hadhrat Sahibzada Mirza Mansoor Ahmad Sahib and his mother’s      name is Hadhrat Sahibzadi Nasira Begum Sahiba. Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad      Sahib is also the great grandson of the Founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim      community, Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian, the Promised Messiah &lt;img src="http://ahmadiya.org/images/as.gif" align="absmiddle" height="18" width="35" /&gt;,      and the grandson of Hadhrat Mirza Sharif Ahmad Sahib&lt;img src="http://ahmadiya.org/images/ra.gif" align="absmiddle" height="18" width="45" /&gt;,      the youngest son of the Promised Messiah &lt;img src="http://ahmadiya.org/images/as.gif" align="absmiddle" height="18" width="35" /&gt;.      Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib is also the maternal grandson of Hadhrat      Khalifatul Masih II &lt;img src="http://ahmadiya.org/images/ra.gif" align="absmiddle" height="18" width="45" /&gt;.      Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib did his primary education at Taleem-ul-Islam      High School Rabwah, and obtained his BA from Taleemul-Islam (TI) College      Rabwah, Pakistan. In 1976 he earned his Masters of Science degree in Agricultural      Economics from the Agriculture University Faisalabad, Pakistan.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;  Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib got married on 31&lt;sup&gt;st&lt;/sup&gt; January    1977 to Syeda Amtul Sabooh (Begum Sahiba), the daughter of the Late Begum Sahibzadi    Amtul Hakeem and Mr Syed Daud Muzaffar Shah. His walima feast was held two    days after his marriage. He is the father of a daughter, Mrs Amtul Waris Fateh    who is married to Mr Fateh Ahmad Dahiri of Nawabshah and they have a young    son and a daughter. Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib also has one son, Mr    Mirza Waqas Ahmad, currently studying accountancy in England.&lt;br /&gt;      &lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;At the young age of seventeen, Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib became          a Moosi (that is to say that he signed up for Wasiyyat or a will, under          the plan initiated by the Promised Messiah &lt;img src="http://ahmadiya.org/images/as.gif" align="absmiddle" height="18" width="35" /&gt;,          thus committing a portion, not less than one-tenth, of his lifetime earnings          and any property to the cause of Islam.) In 1977, he devoted his life (that          is to say that he became a Waqf-i-Zindagi) for Islam, and as directed by          Hadhrat Mirza Nasir Ahmad, Khalifatul Masih III, Sahibzada Mirza Masroor          Ahmad Sahib, proceeded to Ghana under the Nusrat-Jahan Scheme. This social,          educational and economic development scheme supports a large number of          hospitals and schools in West Africa.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib was the founding principal of the        Ahmadiyya Secondary School Salaga, a school in the northern region of Ghana,        where he served for two years. This school is progressing very well to        this day. His success at this school made him the obvious choice for the        principal of the Ahmadiyya Secondary School at Essarkyir where he served        for a further four years. This school is in the central region of Ghana.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib was appointed as the manager of the        Ahmadiyya Agricultural Farm in Depali, in the northern region of Ghana,        for 2 years. First experiments had revealed that wheat could not grow in        Ghana. But Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib continued relentlessly.        Another Ahmadi Muslim, Mr Qasim Ahmad, joined him in this series of experiments.        The efforts of this team of Ahmadi agriculturalists finally paid dividends.        The first successful experiment of planting, growing and nurturing wheat        as an economic crop in Ghana was exhibited at an international trade fair        and the results were submitted to the Ministry of Agriculture of Ghana.        It stands as a great credit to his personal efforts in these experiments        that successive presidents of Ghana have commended the Ahmadiyya Muslim        community for these highly successful experiments which revolutionized        the country’s economy and paved the way for self sufficiency.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;In 1985, Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib returned to Pakistan and        on 17&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; March 1985, he was appointed as Wakilul Maal II, Department        In-Charge of Financial Affairs II. On 18&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; June 1994 he was        appointed as Nazir Ta’leem (Director of Education).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;On 10&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt; December 1997, Hadhrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad, Khalifatul        Masih IV, appointed Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib as Nazir A’la        (chief executive director) of Sadr Anjuman Ahmadiyya Pakistan and local        Amir.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib’s predecessor Nazir A’la        was his father Sahibazada Mirza Mansoor Ahmad Sahib. Recalling what a simple        and devoted and pious person Sahibzada Mirza Mansoor Ahmad Sahib was, Hadhrat        Khalifatul Masih IV stated with tears in his eyes that he had observed        that when he met him he was extremely happy. When he enquired about the        source of his happiness, Sahibzada Mirza Mansoor Ahmad Sahib said, ‘Why        should I not be happy: today the Khalifa of the time is happy with my children        and my family.’ In this sermon, he also paid warm tribute to Sahibzada        Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib. Till his election as Khalifa, Sahibzada Mirza        Masroor Ahmad Sahib remained the Nazir A’la and local Amir.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;In administrative matters and a disciplined approach to work, he has no        parallel. He has the unique quality of getting down to the heart of the        matter and dealing with it squarely. But these characteristics were not        acquired merely because of the foregoing but a thorough upbringing as set        out below. Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib served in many other capacities.        As Nazir A’la, he was also serving as Nazir Dhiyafat (Hospitality)        and Nazir Zira’at (Agriculture). In August 1988 he had been appointed        as Sadr (President) Bahishti Maqbara and Majlis Karpardaz Masalaih Qabristan        (the executive committee managing the Bahishti Maqbarah and related matters).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;From 1994 to 1997, he was Chairman Nasir Foundation. At the same time,        Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib was President of Tazaeen Rabwah Committee        (committee for the beautification of Rabwah). He expanded the Gulshan-e-Ahmad        Nursery and his personal efforts led to reforming Rabwah from its barren        to its lush green image. Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad Sahib also served        as a member of Qadha (Jurisprudence) Board from 1988 to 1995.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;In Central Khuddam-ul-Ahmadiyya, an auxiliary body of the Ahmadiyya Muslim        community comprising men between 15 and 40 years of age, Sahibzada Mirza        Masroor Ahmad Sahib was the Muhtamim (Secretary) Sehat-e-Jismani (Physical        Health) 1976-77, Muhtamim Tajneed (census and membership records) 1984-85,        from 1985-86 to 1988-89 Muhtamim Majalis Bairoon (Secretary External Chapters),        and in 1989-90 Naib Sadr (Vice President) Khuddam-ul-Ahmadiyya Pakistan.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;In Majlis Ansarullah Pakistan, an auxiliary organisation of the Ahmadiyya        Muslim Community comprising men over 40 years of age, Sahibzada Mirza Masroor        Ahmad Sahib was the Qaid Zahanat (intellectual) and Sehat-e-Jismani (Physical        Health) in 1995, and Qaid Talim-ul-Qur’an (Quranic Education) from        1995 to 1997.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;On 22&lt;sup&gt;nd&lt;/sup&gt; April, 2003 at 11:40pm London Time , Sahibzada Mirza        Masroor Ahmad Sahib’s election as Khalifatul Masih V (Fifth Successor        to the Promised Messiah) was announced by Mr Ataul Mujeeb Rashed, Secretary        Majlis Shura, as follows:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;  &lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;      &lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;em&gt;‘It is announced for the information of all members of the            worldwide Ahmadiyya Muslim Community that following the Maghrib (dusk)            and Isha (night) prayers, the Majlis Intikhab Khilafat (the Electoral            College) established by Hadhrat Khalifatul Masih II, Musleh Maud (the            Promised Reformer) &lt;img src="http://ahmadiya.org/images/ra.gif" align="absmiddle" height="18" width="45" /&gt; convened            at the Fazl Mosque London today, Tuesday 22&lt;sup&gt;nd&lt;/sup&gt; April 2003,            under the chairmanship of Respected Chaudhry Hameed Ullah Sahib. Pursuant            to the rules and regulations, each member took an oath of allegiance            to Khilafat-i-Ahmadiyya. After this, they elected the most respected            Sahibzada Mirza Masroor Ahmad &lt;img src="http://ahmadiya.org/images/aba.gif" align="absmiddle" height="18" width="90" /&gt; as            Khalifatul Masih V. The members of the Majlis Intikhab Khilafat immediately            had the honour of taking the pledge of initiation at the blessed hand            of Hadhrat Amirul Mominneen Khalifatul Masih V, may Allah assist him            with His Mighty help and Allah grant him a long life, and have also            had the honour of meeting Hadhrat Amirul Momineen.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;      &lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:Verdana,Aria;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;em&gt;Alhamdolillah (All praise belongs to Allah).

Founded in 1889, AMC spans over 193 countries with membership exceeding tens of millions. Its current headquarters are in the United Kingdom.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;AMC is the only Islamic organization to believe that  the long-awaited &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/library/messiah.html"&gt;Messiah&lt;/a&gt; has come in the person of  &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/library/messiah.html"&gt;Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (as)&lt;/a&gt; (1835-1908) of Qadian. Ahmad  (as) claimed to be the metaphorical  second coming of &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/topics/jesus/"&gt;Jesus (as)&lt;/a&gt; of  Nazareth and the divine guide, whose advent was foretold by the &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/holyprophet/"&gt;Prophet of  Islam, Muhammad (sa)&lt;/a&gt;. AMC believes that &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/allah/"&gt;God&lt;/a&gt; sent Ahmad (as), like &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/topics/jesus/"&gt;Jesus (as)&lt;/a&gt;, to end religious wars, condemn bloodshed and reinstitute morality, justice and peace. Ahmad’s (as) advent has brought about an unprecedented era of Islamic revival. He divested Islam of fanatical beliefs and practices by vigorously championing Islam’s true and essential teachings. He also recognized the noble teachings of the great religious founders and saints, including Zoroaster (as), Abraham (as), Moses (as), &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/topics/jesus/"&gt;Jesus (as)&lt;/a&gt;, Krishna (as), Buddha (as), Confucius (as), Lao Tzu and Guru Nanak, and explained how such teachings converged into the one true Islam.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;AMC is the leading Islamic organization to categorically  reject &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/terrorism.html"&gt;terrorism&lt;/a&gt; in any form. Over a century ago, Ahmad (as) emphatically declared that an  aggressive “&lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/jihad/sword.html"&gt;jihad by the sword&lt;/a&gt;” has no place in Islam. In its place, he taught his  followers to wage a bloodless, intellectual “&lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/library/links/00000064.html"&gt;jihad of the pen&lt;/a&gt;” to defend Islam.  To this end, Ahmad (as)  penned over &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/books/"&gt;80  books&lt;/a&gt; and tens of thousands of letters, delivered hundreds of lectures, and engaged in scores of public debates. His rigorous and rational defenses of Islam unsettled conventional Muslim thinking. As part of its effort to revive Islam, AMC continues to spread Ahmad’s (as) teachings of moderation and restraint in the face of bitter opposition from parts of the Muslim world.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Similarly, AMC is the only Islamic organization to endorse a separation of mosque and state. Over a century ago, Ahmad (as)  taught his followers to protect the sanctity of both religion and government by becoming righteous souls as well as loyal citizens. He cautioned against irrational interpretations of Quranic pronouncements and misapplications of Islamic law. He continually voiced his concerns over protecting the rights of God’s creatures. Today, AMC continues to be an advocate for universal human rights and protections for religious and other minorities. It champions the empowerment and education of women. Its members are among the most law-abiding, educated, and engaged Muslims in the world.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;AMC is the foremost Islamic organization with a central spiritual leader. Over a century ago, Ahmad (as) reminded his followers of God’s promise to safeguard the message of Islam through &lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/topics/khilafat/"&gt;khilafat&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;(the spiritual institution of successorship to prophethood). AMC believes that only spiritual successorship can uphold the true values of Islam and unite humanity. Five spiritual leaders have succeeded Ahmad (as) since his demise in 1908. AMC’s fifth and current spiritual head, &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/khilafat/fifth/"&gt;Mirza Masroor Ahmad&lt;/a&gt;, resides in the United Kingdom. Under the leadership of its spiritual successors, AMC has now built over 10,000 mosques, over 500 schools, and over 30 hospitals.

The Revelation of God viz.,        the Quran which we are commanded to hold firmly on, that indeed we hold        firmly on. God be pleased with Umar: Like him we have the words 'sufficient        unto us is the Book of God' constantly on our lips. In case of conflict        and disagreement between the Hadith and the Quran we follow Hazrat Ayesha        (God be pleased with her) and choose the Quran, especially in the historical        texts treated by all schools as above abrogation. And we believe that there        is no deity, no one worthy of worship, but only Almighty Allah that our        Master Hazrat Muhammad Mustafa (peace and blessings of God be upon him),        is His Rasul and Khatamal-Anbiya. And we believe that angels exist, that        the resurrection of bodies after death is true, that the Day of Reckoning        is also true, that Djanna and Gehenna are also true. We believe that every        thing taught about these matters by the Holy Quran and the Holy Prophet        is true. We believe that he who seeks to subtract an iota from this or to        add an iota to this - the Shariah of Islam and also he who makes light of        the statutes and practices of Islam is devoid of belief, a denier of Islam.        We counsel our Jamaat to put true and sincere faith in the Holy Kalima,        &lt;i&gt;La Illaha Ill-Allah, Muhammad al-Rasul-Allah&lt;/i&gt;, to live and die by        it, also to believe in all prophets and in all books, the truth of which        is sanctioned by the Quran; to observe in letter and in spirit the Fasts,        Prayers, Zakat and Pilgrimage and all prescriptions and prohibitions laid        down by Almighty Allah and His Prophet. We counsel them in short that their        belief should include all beliefs and all rules of conduct agreed upon unanimously        by early Muslims, that is, all matters accepted as part of Islam by the        consensus of &lt;i&gt;Ahl-i-Sunna&lt;/i&gt;. There is no option. And we hold heaven        and earth as witness that this is our creed and this is our faith.        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Ayyamal Sulh pg. 86-87)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 2 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       We are Musalmans. We believe in the One God without a partner and in the        Kalima, La Illah Ill-Allah. We believe in the Book of God, the Quran, in        His Messenger Muhammad (peace on him and God's blessings) the Khatam Al-Anbiya.        We believe in angels, the resurrection, hell and paradise. We observe the        prescribed prayers and the fast. We turn to the Qibla for prayers and forbid        ourselves what is forbidden by God and His Prophet and permit ourselves        what is permitted. We add not a thing to the Sharia, nor subtract any thing        from it. The Sharia is above change. Whatever has come down to us from the        Holy Prophet (on whom peace and God's blessings), all that we accept, whether        we understand or not and whether we can unravel its secrets and real meaning        or not. We are believers with the Grace of God, and strict monotheist Muslims.        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Nur al-Haq I, pg. 5)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr width="75%"&gt;       &lt;center&gt;         Back to [ &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/library/pm-bl.html#top"&gt;Top&lt;/a&gt; | &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/library/messiah.html"&gt;The          Promised Messiah&lt;/a&gt; ]         &lt;p&gt;          &lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr size="2"&gt;         &lt;a name="allah"&gt;         &lt;h2&gt;Allah the Almighty&lt;/h2&gt;         &lt;/a&gt;          &lt;h1&gt;- 1 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       I want to make it clear to Muslims, Christians, Hindus, and Aryas, that        I have no enemy. I love all men as a merciful mother loves her children.        Nay more. I am enemy only of false beliefs, beliefs subversive of truth.        To sympathise with all humans is my duty and to preach against falsehood,        disloyalty to God, tyranny, evil conduct, injustice, immorality is my mission.        &lt;p&gt; My motive for this height of sympathy is that I have discovered a gold          mine, have had access to an unlimited supply of precious stones. In the          mine I have found a bright and priceless jewel. So priceless that if I          divide it between all of my fellow men, every one of them will become          richer than the richest among them in gold and silver. What is this jewel?          It is the true God. To reach Him is to know Him, to become really aware          of Him, to have true faith in Him, to be united with Him in true love.          To receive true blessings from Him in return. Having found such a priceless          treasure it will be cruel on my part if I let not my fellow-men know about          it. Could I let them go hungry while I have plenty. No, it will not be          so, while I can help. My heart burns over their want and hunger. My soul          becomes depressed over their dark and straitened existence. I want to          see their homes filled with riches divine. I want to see them full with          faith and truth. Full to capacity.        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Arbain No. 1, pg. 2-3)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 2 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       God is a lovely treasure. Hold Him dear. He is your Help at every step.        You are as nothing without Him. And nothing are your means and methods.        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Kishti-i-Nuh, pg. 20)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 3 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       God is One and Unique and Unpartnered, in one and all His perfect attributes.        Without any fault whatsoever.        &lt;p&gt; He combines in His person al the most perfect attributes. He is the          Manifestation of all Holy Powers, the Originator of all creatures, the          Spring of all Graces, the Lord of rewards and punishments, the Disposer          of all affairs. He is near though far, far though near. Above all things          and everything, yet there is nothing below Him. He is the most hidden          than everything yet there is nothing more evident than Him. He lives in          His right, everything else by Him. Himself self subsistent, everything          else subsists by Him. Everything holds He, nothing hold Him. Nothing came          to create itself without Him. Nothing can now live by itself. He encompasses          everything, though we know not how it happens to be so. He is the Essence          of everything in heaven and earth. The essence of everything owes its          brightness to His Hand, is a shadow of His Being. The nourisher of all          worlds is He.        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Lecture Lahore, pg. 5)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr width="75%"&gt;       &lt;center&gt;         Back to [ &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/library/pm-bl.html#top"&gt;Top&lt;/a&gt; | &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/library/messiah.html"&gt;The          Promised Messiah&lt;/a&gt; ]          &lt;p&gt;          &lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr size="2"&gt;         &lt;a name="prophet"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;         &lt;h2&gt;Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw)&lt;/h2&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 1 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       What was this, do you know? This most wonderful thing which happened in        the wilderness of Arabia? Spiritually dead millions became alive again in        a matter of days; those without eyes began to see, those without speech        began to speak the language of seers gifted with divine knowledge. This        was a revolution which no eye had seen before nor had an ear heard of it        before.        &lt;p&gt; What was it, do you know? It was a miracle performed by the mighty prayers          of a man who had dedicated his life to God. Prayers offered in the dead          of night. These prayers shook the world. They wrought changes impossible          for an unlettered person to bring about.        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; God! shower Thy blessings and send peace on this man! Bless not only          him but also those who come after him and follow him! Remove their fears,          their sorrows, their anxieties. And on this his Umma, shower Thy Bounties          and Thy Blessings until the end of days.        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Barkat-al Dua pg. 10-11)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 2 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       Thousands and thousands of prayers and invocations of peace, mercies, and        blessings, for the Holy Prophet Muhammad Mustafa - on whom peace - through        whom we found the Living God.        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Nasim-i-Dawat, pg. 1)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 3 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       The true saviour whose offer of salvations (of the fruit of salvation, to        be exact), is with us today and will be with us until doomsday, is the one        who appeared in the land of Hijaz. His offer of salvation was for all mankind,        of all times.        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Dafi al-Bala 'inside back cover')&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 4 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       We know it clearly from the Holy Quran that every prophet is a member of        the Umma - the fold - of Muhammad (on whom be peace). Says the Holy Quran        addressing the prophets:        &lt;blockquote&gt; You shall believe in him help him (3:82)&lt;/blockquote&gt;       This means all prophets belong to the Umma - the fold - of the Holy Prophet        (on whom be peace).        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Barahin-i-Ahmadiyya V, appendix pg. 133)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 5 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       A man who exceeded all men in perfection, perfect as man and perfect as        prophet, came into the world, endowed with the most perfect of graces. Through        the Quickening and Gathering brought about by him came the First Resurrection.        A dead world became charged with life. Who is he? He is the blessed prophet,        Khatam al-Anbiya, Imam al-Asfiya, Khatam al-Mursalin, Fakhr al-Nabiyyin,        Muhammad Mustafa (on whom be peace and blessings of God).        &lt;p&gt; Beloved God! Reward this beloved prophet with Mercies and Favours with          which no man from the beginning of time, has been rewarded by Thee. Had          not this great prophet appeared in the world, we would have known nothing          of the truth of the lesser prophets like Jonah, Job, Jesus son of Mary,          Malachi, John, Zachariah, etc., etc. We would have had no proof. True,          they were accepted and approved and honoured and loved by God. But we          owe this to The Holy Prophet, that these other prophets came to be known          as true prophets.        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; "God! Accept our prayers for him, send him peace, bless him and his          progeny and all his companions with Thy blessings."        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Itmam al-Hujja, pg. 28)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 6 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       In many places in the Holy Quran it is laid down - implicitly as well as        explicitly - that the Holy Prophet, on whom be peace and the blessings of        God, is the most perfect manifestation of Divinity; his speech is the speech        of God, his advent the advent of God, his coming the coming of God. We have        the verse, 'Say, Truth has come and falsehood has gone, and falsehood had        to go'. Truth here means the three - God Almighty, the Holy Quran and the        Holy Prophet, on whom be peace and blessings of God.... You can see how        God Almighty associates the Holy Prophet's name with His Own and how the        Holy Prophet's advent becomes the advent of God. (peace on the Holy Prophet        and God's blessings).        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Surma Chashm-i-Arya, pg. 229-38 foot note)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 7 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       I have always wondered and wondered how high must be the station of this        Arabian Prophet Muhammad! Thousands of blessings and prayers of peace for        him! Impossible it is to measure the height of his station. Impossible to        have an idea of his purifying powers. Pity therefore that his greatness        goes unrecognized still. The conception of the One God had all but disappeared        from the face of this earth; the stalwart who established it again in human        hearts is he. He loved God to the utmost. And he loved and sympathised with        mankind equally, sacrificing his life for their sake. No wonder, God Who        knew the secret of his heart raised him above Prophets and above all men        who had gone before him or were to come after him. All his aspirations were        fulfilled during his life.        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Haqiqat al-Wahy pg. 115-116)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 8 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       Only two lives are worthy of praise. One is the life of Our God, the Life        Giver, the Life Sustainer, the Source of Graces and Favours. The other life        is the life which enriches and favours and is God-like in its graces. This        second kind of life - come, let me tell you - is the life of our Holy Prophet        (on whom be peace and blessings of God). Heavenly signs at all times in        history have borne witness to this life. They are here with us today.        &lt;p&gt; And remember, he, whose life does not enrich other people's lives is          dead, not living. I hold God as witness when I declare - and to declare          anything false in His Name is rank depravity - that God has given me proof          of enduring spiritual life - so full of beauty and power - of my revered          master, the Chief of us all, Muhammad, on whom be peace. The proof is          that by following in his footsteps and by devoting my love to him, I have          seen heavenly sings descend upon me and fill my heart with the light of          certainty of faith.        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Tiryaq al-Qalub, pg. 6)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 9 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       Is there a prophet who lives still? Then he is our Holy Prophet (on whom        be peace). Books have been written by renowned authors on the Life of the        Holy Prophet that he - our Holy Prophet - continues to live is proved by        mighty arguments. Arguments which have no equal in any other prophet's life.        Among the arguments is this, that a prophet who lives in one whose blessings        and graces continue for ever.        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Al Hakam 17 Feb., 1906, pg. 3)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 10 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       The life of Holy Prophet is a life of enduring worth. A mighty proof of        this is that the graces of the graces of the Holy Prophet, his spiritual        influence, lives for ever. Those who walk in his footsteps even today become        quickened with life, - raised from their graves as it were. They receive        the gift of a new spiritual life.        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Aina Kamalat Islam pg. 221)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr width="75%"&gt;       &lt;center&gt;         Back to [ &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/library/pm-bl.html#top"&gt;Top&lt;/a&gt; | &lt;a href="http://ahmadiya.org/library/messiah.html"&gt;The          Promised Messiah&lt;/a&gt; ]          &lt;p&gt;          &lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr size="2"&gt;         &lt;a name="quran"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;         &lt;h2&gt;The Holy Quran&lt;/h2&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 1 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       The title Khatam al-Nabiyyin used for the Holy Prophet (on whom be peace        and blessings of God) requires - the term in its own right requires - that        the Book revealed to the Holy Prophet (on whom be peace and blessings) should        be Khatam al-Kutub, it should be a book perfect in all dimensions. The Quran        is full of such perfection.        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Malfoozat vol. 3, pg. 36)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 2 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       I was young and now I am old. There are people who would know and if they        will, they will bear witness that I have had no concern with worldly affairs.        My interests have centered in religion. Let me tell you that the Book called        the Quran is most Holy, most full of spiritual wisdom.... The blessings        and benefits we expect from a true faith, this book has come at last to        confer on man. Through it man comes to inherit the Grace of God. Can it        be that having found such a light we should turn again to darkness, having        had eyes should choose to become blind again.        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Sanatan Dharam, pg. 67)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 3 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       Perfect and holy is the teachings of the Holy Quran which nourishes every        branch of the human tree. The Holy Quran does not stress only one side of        it. It teaches compassion and forgiveness when forgiveness is nearer wisdom.        It prescribes punishment for the wrong-doer but such as is appropriate to        the moment and the occasion.        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Barahin-i-Ahmadiyya II, pg. 91-92)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 4 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       God is our witness, He Who knows the innermost secrets of our hearts, that        I am ready to accept the penalty of death, should any one be able to point        to the slightest weakness in the teachings of the Holy Quran, it may be        as slight as a minute fraction of a particle. Or should any one be able        to point to an equally slight virtue of a book to which he subscribes, a        virtue contrary to the teachings of the Quran on the same point, yet superior        to it.        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Barahin-i-Ahmadiyya III, pg. 268 foot note 2)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 5 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       Of the great spiritual powers of the Holy Quran, one is that he who submits        to it becomes gifted with the power to work miracles and do deeds out of        the ordinary run. In such number, that the world will not think of contesting.        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Chashma-i-M'arifat, pg. 4)&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;       &lt;p&gt;        &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;         &lt;h1&gt;- 6 -&lt;/h1&gt;       &lt;/center&gt;       Even a dot of the Holy Quran does not run the risk of any damage or alteration        at the hands of collective assault of the ancestors and successors. It is        such a strong, secure and solid stone that its strike will split apart and        any one who strikes against it, will be annihilated.        &lt;p&gt;         &lt;/p&gt;&lt;center&gt;           &lt;cite&gt;(Aina Kamalat-e-Islam Roohani Khazain Vol. 5, pg. 257 fn.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;a href="http://alislam.org/"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,Aria; font-size: 85%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;http://alislam.org/&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;cite&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/cite&gt;         &lt;/center&gt;&lt;a name="top"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6854805386313523746-2805042897817253514?l=ahmadiyyas.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ahmadiyyas.blogspot.com/feeds/2805042897817253514/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://ahmadiyyas.blogspot.com/2009/04/hazrat-mirza-ghulam-ahmad-qadiani-1835.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6854805386313523746/posts/default/2805042897817253514'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6854805386313523746/posts/default/2805042897817253514'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ahmadiyyas.blogspot.com/2009/04/hazrat-mirza-ghulam-ahmad-qadiani-1835.html' title='Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani (1835-1908) Founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama&apos;at The Promised Messiah and Imam Mahdi'/><author><name>ahmadiyya</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14334860758278210899</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='28' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Hxb95hNYegk/SfjCTYGy7_I/AAAAAAAAAA4/tHpg4ejY-7w/S220/mosque+baitulfutuh'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Hxb95hNYegk/SfYvXtK7A1I/AAAAAAAAAAM/ppFDqCyH6EA/s72-c/+Hazrat+Mirza+Ghulam+Ahmad+Qadiani+%281835-1908%29+Founder+of+the+Ahmadiyya+Muslim+Jama%27at+The+Promised+Messiah+and+Imam+Mahdi.gif' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry></feed>
