Death on The Cross? — Page iv
Foreword. My late father Hazrat Maulana Abul-Ata Jalandhri was, by the Grace of Allah, an illustrious scholar of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama'at. . He had the distinction and honour of serving the cause of the community throughout his life. He also had the opportunity of having worked closely with Hazrat Khalifatul Mashih II and III. . In recognition of his outstanding services, Hazrat Khalifatul Masih II (May Allah be pleased with him) bestowed on him the title of. KHALID, a famous companion of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (May peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), who is renowned for his bravery and victories achieved on the battlefields in early. Islamic history. . Sometimes a small article is capable of creating an impact far greater than that of a voluminous book. It is my hope that this pamphlet, which is in your hands, has the same effect. . I remember vividly the circumstances in which my father wrote this book, he was unwell at the time and retired to a small village known as Rambari in Kashmir in order to recuperate. As a result of his illness, he dictated the whole article to me. The article was first published in the monthly Al-Furqan, a periodical edited by my father. Later on, an English translation appeared in the Muslim. Herald, published by the London Mosque. It was subsequently produced separately as a booklet to be distributed widely. . I hope that the reader will appreciate that the article is very concise and to the point. Its narrative is very powerful and full of conviction. . Ten arguments from the Holy Bible have been put forward in it. . These conclusively prove the fallacy of present day Christian belief in the death of Jesus Christ (May peace be upon him) on the cross. iii
