Ahmadiyyat or Qadianism! Islam or Apostasy? — Page 253
Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad did not accomplish this sign and hence could not be considered the Promised Messiah. . The adversaries of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community also argue against his claim on the grounds that the: 'Jews has no country and government of their own before [Hazrat]. Mirza [Ghulam Ahmad] but now they have got a country and a strong government which points to the fact that the mission of the Messiah is not yet completed. "2. A thorough study of the entire range of anti Ahmadiyya publications leaves the unmistakable impression that the authors of these anti. Ahmadiyya tirades are very unsure of their own grounds as they are unable to resolve what the defeat of the Jews actually means. 3. Suhaib Hasan's opinion that the Jews would be badly defeated' suggests that they will not be exterminated from the face of the earth but they will be routed in battle and hence subjugated to the absolute authority of a Muslim sovereign. This impression is further strengthened by Hasan's suggestion that the death of the anti Christ would bring about a complete subjugation of the Jews. ' ' 4. However, Suhaib Hasan contradicts himself when he addresses the question of Jizya and alleges that since Jizya is collected from the people of the Book, the acceptance of Islam by the people of the Book will negate the requirement of Jizya's collection' hence creating an impression that there would be no Jews left after the Promised Messiah has dealt with the. Dajaal and its party of 70,000 Jews. Hasan's other contention that after the descent of the Promised Messiah 'except Islam there will be an end of all other religions' 6 also contradicts his earlier opinion. . Maududi on the other hand initially favours the opinion that: 'God will cause the Jews to be defeated. ” 2. Ibid 3. Ibid 6. Ibid 4. Ibid: pg 7 5. Ibid 7. Maududi, A.
