Malfuzat - Volume I وَاللَّهُ يَعْصِمُكَ مِنَ النَّاسِ 213 And Allah will protect thee from men. Therefore, in this prayer, the phrase (Not the path of those who have incurred Thy displeasure), informs us about the state of a party: from among the Muslims that will oppose the Promised Messiah. Moreover, the word ad- daleen indicates that in the era of the Promised Messiah (as), the trial of Christianity would reach its pinnacle in severity. At that time, the dispensation unveiled by God Almighty would be the community of the Promised Messiah. It is for this reason that God Almighty named the Promised Messiahªs, 'the one who would break the cross, as we learn from the Holy Prophets in the Hadith. The actual fact is that every Reformer (Mujaddid) came to rectify the disorders that were prevalent at the time. Now reflect for the sake of God and it becomes evident that presently, the pen and tongue have been employed in support of the Christian concept of salvation so forcefully that if one flips through the pages of history, no parallel can be found to exist in any other era, as far as efforts to support a false doctrine are concerned. At present, proponents who support this disorder of Christianity have gone to the very extreme in their writings. So when unjust and vigorous allegations have been levelled against the true concept of God's Unity, and upon the chastity, dignity and truth of the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and upon the divine origin of the Book of Allah, would the jealousy of Allah Almighty not demand that he be sent from on high who was to come and break the cross? Has God Almighty forgotten His promise Verily, We Ourself have sent down this Exhortation, and) إِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا الذِّكْرَ وَإِنَّا لَهُ لَحَفِظُوْنَ most surely We will be its Guardian). Verily, remember that the promises of God are true. In accordance with His promise, He has sent a warner to the world, and while the world has not accepted him, God Almighty will surely accept him and demonstrate his truthfulness with immensely powerful onslaughts. I tell you truthfully that in accordance with the promise of God Almighty, I have appeared as the Promised Messiah; accept if you will, or reject me if you SO please. But re- member, your denial will amount to nothing. Whatsoever God has willed shall indeed come to pass, because God Almighty has already revealed to me, as re- corded in Barahin-e-Ahmadiyyah: al-Ma'idah, 5:68 al-Hijr, 15:10
