The ignorant people of Europe say the Holy Prophet sa is not a perfect being, And it was not a big accomplishment to spread religion among wild-natured people. The fact is that it is a miracle to change a beast into a human being. In this fact, is the secret of prophethood. He brought light from heaven and he was a light himself. So what if he was raised among a nation of beasts? The light of the sun is indifferent whether it rises in Rome or Zanzibar. ( Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya , part 4, R uha n i Khaz a ’in , vol. 1, p. 144)
