Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya Part III — Page 257
An Apology and an Announcement 257 Islam with such honour, glory, blessings and truth, that no other faith has ever been able to compete with it, or ever will. Having delivered this message convincingly, the argument has been completed against all opponents, and the door has been opened for every seeker after truth to come and witness the full proof, so that they may attain their goal and objective and all opponents may be shamed and rendered speechless before the perfect light of truth. It is also meant to put to shame and confound all those who have taken the false enlightenment of Europe as their god, and who regard those who believe in heavenly blessings to be ignorant, savage, and untrained; and who address the believers of heavenly signs as fools, simple-minded, and ignorant. They hold that the new light of European knowledge will erase the spiritual blessings of Islam, and that the machinations of the created will overwhelm the light of the Creator. Every honest person will now see for himself who emerges victorious and who ends up silenced and frustrated; who is truthful and wise, and who is a fool and a liar! ہ التالکن ي والل ّٰ المستعان و عل [And it is Allah alone whose help is to be sought and in Him alone is our trust and reliance]. Humbly, [Mirza] Ghulam Ahmad may Allah forgive him
