232 Background The sworn enemy of the Promised Messiah as , Maulav i Muhammad H ussain Bat a lv i made a futile attempt to find faults with the Promised Messiah as ’s God-gifted knowledge of Arabic and asserted that the use of “L a m” in Ata‘jabu Li amr i in one of the Promised Messiah as ’s revelations was wrong and, therefore, the Promised Messiah as ’s revelation is not a revelation but man-made stuff. The Promised Messiah as surprised his critics by producing five instances of similar uses of “L a m” from the A ha hith thus exposing Maulav i Muhammad H ussain Bat a lv i ’s superficial knowledge of A ha d i th (even though he claimed to be the head of the Ahl-e- H adith ). The Book In this book, he uncovered one of the great mysteries of the religious world. The Promised Messiah as gave a detailed account of the life of Jesus, son of Mary, from the time he was taken off from the Cross alive, and how he was medically treated and a special ointment was prepared to heal the wounds of Jesus. He followed up this account with the details of the journey taken up by Jesus from Palestine to Kashm i r and leading to his death in Sr i nagar and a detailed map of the tomb of Jesus in Mu h alla Kh a ny a r on page 68 of the book. Jesus was a Prophet of God, and the Promised Messiah as , the author of these books, was also a Prophet of God, and he claimed that God had sent him in the guise of all the prophets, especially in the spirit and power of Jesus, to regenerate mankind. Therefore, he had the peculiar and exclusive advantage of being in a personal and privileged position to understand Jesus aright. He was the one, with him, in spirit and he had in fact met him and conversed with him on several occasions in his waking visions. Whatever he says is indeed based chiefly and primarily on his personal experiences. Hence, he speaks with an authority which cannot be easily questioned or challenged.
