Ahmadiyyat or Qadianism! Islam or Apostasy? — Page 300
Nabiyya Ba'adee is quite correct, which, according to men of letters, means that: There shall be no prophet after me who shall be raised with a new code of Law which shall abrogate my. Law. '54. HAZRAT UMMUL MOMINEEN'S VERDICT. Whatever be the arguments presented by the adversaries of the. Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, the fact remains that their mistaken concept of the chronological finality of prophethood had previously been rejected by the blessed consort of our beloved master, the Ummul. Momineen, Hazrat Ayesha, God be pleased with her, when she stated: 'O ye Muslims! do proclaim that the Holy Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, was the Khataman Nabiyeen but never say that there shall be no prophet after him. ' 55. It is rather ironic that since this Tradition negates their prejudiced concept of the chronological finality of prophethood, the opponents of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, as is their wont, deny its authenticity on the pretext that: 'This Tradition is derived from the commentary entitled Durr i. Manthur and a compilation of Hadith known as Takmilah Majma ul Bihar, but its source and credentials are unknown. ' 56. Whether or not, the authenticity of this Tradition is acceptable to the adversaries of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, the fact remains that this Tradition has been quoted in the works of some of the Ummah's most revered and respected personalities. And, while these mullahs attempt to cast a shadow of doubt on the credibility of these two sources which quote this Tradition, they, when it suits their purpose, quote the same sources in support of their own assertions. .
