Flowers for the Women Wearing Veils - Volume II — Page 245
245 Christianity has lasted one thousand nine hundred years, yet it is still striving , and ha s spread throughout the world. You should also spiritually capture the world for nineteen thousand years. For, the Messiah of Muhammad sa is higher in all his glory than the Messiah Ha z rat Jesus as. May God Almighty enable you to do so, and may He bless your efforts, and may you always find a place in His nearness. The Holy Prophet sa said , “E ven if Ha z rat M oses as and Ha z rat Jesus as had been alive, they would have had no choice but to follow me. ” Thus , your master, [ H oly Prophet sa ] ranks higher than even Ha z rat M oses as and Ha zr at Jesus as. Your goal should be that when you return to Qadian, millions should have already accepted Ahmadiyyat. Teach your children to spread Ahmadiyyat and strive for its progress. The Holy Prophet sa has said that paradise lies under the feet of mothers. This means that if a mother wants , she can destine her children for paradise. So, ‘O Ahmadi ladies ! Strive to destine your children for paradise and teach them not to rest unti l they peacefully spread Ahmadiyyat , not just in Punjab , but all over the world. It has been thirteen years since you left Qadian. During these thirteen years, you should have increased the members in the Jama'at manifold. It is true that women cannot work in the same way as men, but they can certainly persuade their husbands and sons. Christian women dedicate their entire lives and work for their religion. In any case , you should set a higher standard than Christians, and raise the flag of Islam and Ahmadiyyat until the Day of Judgment. May God Almighty be with you and may He enable yo u to fulfill your duties in the best manner. May He make you a true servant of Ahmadiyyat and may He make you a recipient of His Blessings.
