Ahmadiyyat or Qadianism! Islam or Apostasy? — Page 120
This, one is rather grieved to state, has been the conduct of the. Muslim ulemma who according to the evidence of history, rejected nearly every venerable Reformer of his age. 69 Do the critics of the. Ahmadiyya Muslim Community find this rejection justified? If not, then under what criterion do they expect to justify their own rejection of the 14th century Hijra's Reformer?. Does this singular denial and persecution of the 14th century Hijra's. Reformer not suggest that his opponents are merely reviving the long established tradition of their contentious predecessors who denied and persecuted every Reformer in history?. The adversaries of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community would be better adviced to look into the history of their ancestors and reflect upon the conduct of their predecessors. They may yet find that their predecessors also considered themsleves justified in their conduct and yet many centuries later, the Ummah looks upon these traditional enemies of the Ummah's reformers with contempt and disgust. These contemptuous enemies of Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian ought to beware that their unwarranted opposition of the 14th Century Hijra's. Mujaddid could win them the same contempt as is deserved by their own predecessors who persecuted the Reformers of the Ummah in the earlier centuries of the Ummah's history. 69.
