Ahmadiyyat or Qadianism! Islam or Apostasy? — Page 10

sincere Muslim who fears the wrath of God Almighty since Allah promises severe chastisment to anyone 'who stealthily hears something of the revelation and distorts it. '30 But the opponents of the Ahmadiyya. Muslim Community appear to disdain such fear as they assert that 'such a verse is not to be found in the Holy Quran' 31 inspite of the fact that it forms an integral part of the sacred Text which was revealed unto our beloved master, Hazrat Muhammed Mustapha, peace and blessings of. Allah be upon him. It is infact included as an integral part of the Holy. Quran published not only by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community but also by non Ahmadiyya publication houses sponsored by, amongst others, the Wahabbia regime of Saudi Arabia. . For instance, Abdullah Yusuf Ali's English translation of the Holy. Quran published by the Islamic Education Centre of Jeddah in Saudi. Arabia contains a verse to the effect: [QUOTE] Invite (all) to the way of thy Lord with wisdom and beautiful preaching. And argue with them in the ways that are best and most gracious. For thy Lord knoweth best who has strayed His path and who receive guidance. [UNQUOTE] 32. The existence of this verse in a non Ahmadiyya publication is sufficient evidence to prove that this verse was not invented by the founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community but it was found by him in the text of the Holy Quran passed down to him by the succeeding generations of Muslims. Hence Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad's adversaries allegation that he 'invented a lie against God and interpolated the text of the Holy Quran by attributing this Quranic verse to Almighty. Allah' 33 does not have any substance since the disputed verse forms an integral part of the Holy Quran published by the critic's own benefectors. 30. Al Quran: 15. 19 31. Zaheer, E. E: Qadiyaniat.
