A Review of the Pakistani Government’s “White Paper”: Qadiyaniyyat—A Grave Threat to Islam [ 19 ] Mentality that Reflects Ignorance When they are asked if they have lost all sense, they come up with lengthy arguments. They say: ‘You Ahmad i s are impure people. When you utter the kalimah or hold it close to your heart, it dishonours the kalimah , and we cannot tolerate this type of disrespect. ’ Astonishing! The kalimah exists to cleanse the impure, and that is precisely why it was revealed, so that it may purify the wicked. If Ahmad i s are impure, then be happy that the kalimah is purifying them. This is the kalimah of Muhammad sa. This is the kalimah of the One and Only God. It is the kalimah of that purified person, the like of whom has never been born. For centu- ries this kalimah purified those who were impure. This is not the kalimah of some mullah that can be polluted. It is not the kalimah of a ruling tyrant that turns the pious into the wicked. If according to them the Ahmadiyyah Muslim Jam a ‘at is impure, then bear in mind that this ‘impure’ Jam a ‘at only desires this kalimah , the kalimah of Muhammad sa , and the kalimah of the One and Only God. We do not care about any man made kalimah. The other objection they raise is that this kalimah is not really in the hearts of the Ahmad i s. They allege that whereas Ahmad i s utter the kalimah , ‘ Muhammad is the Messenger of God ,’ in their hearts they say, ‘Ahmad is the Messenger of God,’ suggesting that Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadian i is the Messenger of God. Amazing ignorance!
