Blessings of Khilafat — Page 49
49 I had another dream, at around the same time as this, but that dream need not be mentioned at this point. Now, should one reflect on these two dreams, he would understand that a year or so before the demise of the Promised Messiah as God had already informed me of this disagreement about Khilafat. At that time nobody could have imagined of anything such as Khilafat , and even the Anjuman had not yet become functional. It had come into being just a short time ago and no one could have imagined that this newly born establishment would dare stand as a claimant to the successorship of the Promised Messiah as. Rather, it was a time when even the slightest apprehension regarding the demise of the Promised Messiah as could not have crossed the minds of any Ahmadi. All of them, despite the publication of The Will, thought that such an incident would take place only after their own death. Who can deny the fact that a lover cannot bear even the thought of the demise of his loved one. The same was the condition of the Ahmadiyya Jam a ‘at at that time. The fact that Allah the Almighty revealed at such a time every detail about the dispute that was destined to take place regarding Khilafat , and then the literal fulfilment of this prophecy mentioned in those dreams, is such great a sign that no God-fearing person can ever deny the importance of the institution of Khilafat. Is any human being capable of giving tidings of an incident two years prior to its happening, and also predict its occurrence in the face of circumstances when no visible means are apparently available for its fulfilment? And is it possible that his prediction should come true ad verbatim after a period of two years, especially when a whole nation is affected by the outcome of the prediction?
