An Introduction to the Hidden Treasures of Islam — Page 16
16 **Note: It may be noted here that in the original editions of the books as published by the Promised Messiah as , H u du r used progressive number in pages. So when the second volume ended on page 137, progressive number continued in the third volume, that is how the third volume starts with page number 138 and ends with page number 278. The fourth volume begins from page 279 and ends at page 572. However, Hadrat Jal a l-ud-D i n Shams ra , in order to preserve the integrity of the books and the page numbers used in the edition as published by the Promised Messiah as , retained those page numbers, and these page numbers are shown in the margin of each page as published by Islam International Publications Limited. Hadrat Jal a l-ud-D i n Shams ra had to use different numerical order of pages which became necessary on account of a different printing format, but nonetheless, he very faithfully preserved H u du r’s page numbers which are shown in the margin of each page of the book and thereby preserved and maintained the purity of each book. The Book He devoted the third part of the Barahin-e-Ahmadiyyah to expounding the beauties of the Holy Quran in such a fashion that the superiority of the teachings of the Holy Quran was established with pure logic. The Promised Messiah as maintained with a conviction that comes only from Divine guidance that the Holy Quran is a unique book offering a perfect guidance for mankind, and a guidance that could have been revealed by God alone. The Promised Messiah as answered a number of objections that were levelled against the Holy Quran and claimed that he himself was the recipient of the Divine revelation and ready to demonstrate its truth. He explained various forms in which God communicates His Will to man in a very authoritative manner.
