Life of Ahmad — Page 345
as VICTORIA INVITED TO ISLAM 345 whose jurisdiction he lived, he did not think fit to preach the truth to him. Herod 'hoped to have seen some miracles done by Him. Then he questioned with Him in many words; but He answered him nothing' (Luke 23:8, 9). Christian commentators say that Jesus as did not say anything because 'He knew that Herod was not wishing to learn and obey the truth!' The only parallel to Ahmad’s as magnificent appeal given above can be found in the invitation of the great Prophet sa of Arabia to the Roman and Persian emperors to submit to God. Yet westernised enemies of truth render themselves hoarse today in crying that Ahmad as 'puts on the demeanour of a sycophant and a suppliant whenever he happens to speak of the British!'
