xxiv BAr a h i n-e-a h madiyya The phrase, ‘When the books are spread abroad,’ refers to the means for publication like the printing press. As you see, Allah the Almighty has raised a nation which has invented the instruments for printing. How many are the printing presses working in India and other countries. This is God’s doing, so that He may assist in my task and may spread my teachings and my books and convey to every nation the wisdom contained in my writings so that they may listen and be guided. ( A ’ i na-e-Kam a l a t-e-Isl a m , R uha n i Khaz a ’in , vol. 5, p. 473, translated from Arabic) By the grace of God Almighty, the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community continues to avail itself of the fast-growing facili- ties for printing and publication. The message of the Promised Messiah as is conveyed to more than 200 countries around the globe through the Muslim Television Ahmadiyya. Our Internet pres- ence (www. alislam. org) is a comprehensive source of knowledge and information about Islam/Ahmadiyyat. The translation of the original works of the Promised Messiah as has accelerated because of the availability of various electronic media which make it pos- sible to speed up work, readily consult different source materials and bring about coordination and cooperation between the devo- tees of the Promised Messiah as serving in different countries.
