185 day, when one of those delegates returned from their village in the morning, they told me that an Arabic teacher used foul language against the jama’at the night before. I planned the same day and set out for that village accompanied by two friends to talk to that ustaz. When we reached there, we learnt that the ustaz had left the place. We spoke to the villagers for a short while and delivered the message of truth to them and started our journey back. As we were passing through a village one of the friends told me that a lady related to him had passed away the day before and asked if it was possible to visit them for condolence. We went there. My friend introduced me to the household and we offered our condolences. Quite a lot of people had gathered there. One of the household told me about an elderly person that he was the imam of a nearby village. We exchanged the greetings and I told him about the Ahmadiyya Jama’at briefly. He said, ‘I have been Ahmadi since long’. I was surprised and asked him how? He said, ‘a long time ago I read jama’at’s publication Al-Qawl asareeh القــول الصریــح that convinced me of the truth of Ahmadiyyat but did not have contact with any Ahmadi. Now that I have seen you that need is also met. Alhamdulillah. ’ It is impossible to describe the joy that we had. It is amazing how Allah, the Almighty provides the means for the propagation of His faith. We developed a strong bond with the Imam since and we organised meetings and jalsas in his village several times. The name of his village is Dongre and imam’s name is Alhaj Muhammad Suware.
