Fazle Umar 112 Another companion of the Promised Messiah [as] , Mr. Shauq Mohammad [ra] of Lahore relates that in 1903, while he was in Qadian for studies, he knew that Sahibzada Mirza Mahmud often suffered from eye sore. Hadhrat Maulvi Nooruddin [ra] would himself put eye lotion in Sahibzada Sahib’s eyes and would lovingly kiss his forehead and tenderly pat his cheeks. Then he lovingly addressed him and said, ‘Mian! Truly you are the great Mian. O my Lord God, make him the Imam of the whole world. ’ Mian Shauq Mohammad says that one day I asked Hadhrat Maulvi sahib, ‘You only pray for Mian sahib for such a grand status and position, why not for others?’ To this he replied, ‘I have no doubt that he is going to become Imam, but I merely pray for spiritual reward. ’ Another gentleman, Syed Sadiq Ali Shah, a non-Ahmadi who remained in Qadian from 1908 to 1911 for education, relates as follows: “Another respectable gentleman, Sahibzada Saifur Rahman of Bazeedkhel took Bai’at in 1910 at the blessed hands of Hadhrat Maulvi Nooruddin [ra]. He relates that once Huzur was explaining about revelation. His talk was going on and during the discussion Mian Mahmud came in. Huzur hugged him and asked him to sit by him. Continuing his discussion, he said that Allah speaks to him and asked Mian sahib whether Allah spoke to him too. To this Mian sahib replied in the affirmative. Hearing this, Huzur addressed the audience and said, ‘See! Allah talks to our Mian as well’” Maulana Zahoor Hussain, who was a missionary in Bukhara, Russia, has related the following incident: “Hadhrat Khalifatul Masih I started Darsul Quran especially for Hadhrat Mirza Bashir Ahmad sahib, the younger brother of Hadhrat Mirza Mahmud Ahmad. Taking advantage of this, some other people also joined in the lesson.
