282. Holy Propheta Alone is the Living Prophet. Essence of Islam-1. The miracles that were performed by all the other Prophets came to an end with them; but the miracles of our. Holy Prophet [peace and blessings of Allāh be on him] are fresh and alive in every age. Those miracles being alive and not having succumbed to death is proof that the. Holy Prophet [peace and blessings of Allāh be on him] is alone the living Prophet and that true life is that which has been bestowed on him and not upon any other. His teaching is a living teaching because its fruits and blessings are experienced today as they were experienced 1,300 years before. We have before us no other teaching by acting on which a person might claim that he has been bestowed its fruits, blessings, and graces and that he has become a Sign of God. By the grace of God Almighty, we find the fruits and blessings of the Holy Qur'ān present among us, and we still find those graces and signs which are bestowed in consequence of true obedience to the Holy Prophet [peace and blessings of Allāh be on him]. . Thus has God Almighty established this Movement so that it should be a living witness to the truth of Islām, and should prove that those blessings and signs which had appeared 1,300 years ago have appeared in this age also through perfect obedience to the Holy Prophet [peace and blessings of Allāh be on him]. Hundreds of signs have so far been displayed. We have invited the leaders of all peoples and all religions that they should exhibit the signs of their truth in opposition to us, but there is not one of them who can put forth a practical sample of the truth of his religion.
