51 Hadrat Amman Jan’s ra Love for the Promised Messiah as Almost every action and deed of Hadrat Amman Jan ra seemed to reflect an underlying love and devotion for her husband. This love was far deeper than normal human attachment because it stemmed from her intrinsic love of Allah Almighty, which thus transferred to the love of His prophet as well. Furthermore, loving a dear one of h er Creator could only bring her closer to Him. As a prophet, the Promised Messiah as exceeded others in being a human reflection of the attributes of His Creator. He was an individual who inspired great love in others. This love kindled in others was more e xtensive in those who had the good fortune to spend most time with him. Naturally, as his blessed spouse Hadrat Amman Jan ra had this great privilege and was to be profoundly influenced and shaped by his pure soul. Hadrat Amman Jan ’ s ra love was indeed reciprocated by the Promised Messiah as. He also respected Hadrat Amman Jan ra not merely as a virtuous woman but as a special Divine blessing from Allah Almighty. It was unfortunate for Hadrat Amman Jan ra that her love for Allah Almighty could not ul timately compete with the love and closeness her husband had with their Creator. This is perhaps why she outlived her husband. It is narrated by their daughter , Hadrat Nawwab Mubaraka Begum ra , that Hadrat Amman Jan ra once said to the Promised Messiah as th at she always prayed , “ I never see the grief of your death and that Allah Almighty takes me first. ” The Promised Messiah as replied , “I always pray that you remain alive after me and that I leave you in a peaceful state. ”
