Ahmadiyyat or Qadianism! Islam or Apostasy? — Page 335
CHAPTER FOUR. CONTEMPT OF OPPONENTS. It is rather amusing to note that while the critics of Hazrat Mirza. Ghulam Ahmad consider it: 'not only proper to show disrespect to persons of mean mentality but also irreligious for the Muslims to respect them," they deny the founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community this right and allege that he, God forbid: 'lacked even the most elementary sense of decency and decorum. '2. This allegation is once again made by the adversaries partly as a consequence of their ignorance and partly as a result of their ingrained bias against Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian. . It has for instance often been alleged that the founder of the. Ahmadiyya Muslim Community castigated the non Ahmadiyya divines by applying to them the expression zurrayatul baghaya, translated as the: 'off-springs [sic] of prostitutes'³ by the ignorant anti Ahmadiyya mullahs and their cronies who inspite of their claim to proficiency in Arabic lack any basic understanding of the language. . However, the fact of the matter is that this expression zurrayatul baghaya used in Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad's book titled Ayena. Kamalat e Islam 4 is neither directed against the divines of the Ummah nor does it mean the progeny of prostitutes as it has been mistranslated. 1. Zaheer, E. E: Qadiyaniat.
