The Devotion of Life — Page 47
47 Promised Messiah as and his Khulafa, put together in one place. On top of that, the earlier struggle for waqf, the enthusiasm and efforts of Hadrat Musleh Ma’ud ra , all brought tears of appreciation and prayers as I read the book. Praise be to Allah! What great sacrifices were made by the earlier Waqfeen who had devoted their lives, and today, by Allah’s Grace we are raising an army of ‘Waqifeen’. May God Almighty make each soldier of this army ready to offer sacrifices like those of Respected Maulana Abul Ata Sahib ra and Respected Maulana Jalaluddin Shams Sahib ra and other devotees of that time. I really relished reading this book. Please congratulate your husband on my behalf. He has really put a lot of hard work into this book. Respected Maulana Dost Mohammad Sahib Shahid, Historian of Ahmadiyyat, writes: “I have received your latest remarkable compilation ‘Importance and Blessings of Waqfe Zindagi’. It is a treasure of spiritually inspiring events and a collection of rare photographs. May Allah reward you for the pleasure that you have given. This book, without doubt, is a genuine document on the history of Waqfe Zindagi. And it will be no exaggeration to call it the first encyclopaedia on the subject of Waqfe Zindagi. May Allah the Almighty give His acceptance to this masterpiece of a publication and make it a beacon of light for the coming generation. From the depth of my heart, I can only repeat the revelatory words of the Promised Messiah as : ‘Blessings! Hundreds of Blessings!’ Please accept my gratitude. ”
