Khilafat-e-Rashidah — Page 135
KHILAFAT-E-R A SHIDAH 135 might keep Am i r-ul-Mu‘min i n, Jahangir, the Emperor, safe and sound. The poor fellow did not know that Jahangir, the Emperor, had expired long ago and that now the English were the rulers. So Jum‘ah, the best part of Prayer, can only be performed properly where there is a system of Khilafat in Muslims. You can see that as there is a system in us, my sermons are always concerned with the important needs of the time. It is a blessing of Allah, the Almighty. Some non-Ahmadis are so deeply affected by my sermons, that they deem them to be revealed. A famous leader of Muslims regularly reads my sermons; and stated that these not only guide Muslims religiously but also politically. The real task of the leader is to guide the people. Such leadership can only be provided by the person who gets news from various parts of the world, and has knowledge of ongoing circumstances. The knowledge of such circumstances cannot be acquired only from the newspapers because they also contain many false reports, and moreover, some events are not fully reported. As our missionaries are present in various parts of the world along with the members of our Jam a ‘at, who are spread in all corners of the world, I receive true reports from them, and by utilizing them I can guide the Jam a ‘at properly. To sum up, the performance of Prayer is not possible without the Khalifah.
