12 February 1907 133 12 February 1907 (At the time of Z uhr) There is No Religious Freedom in Afghanistan A Maulaw i had come to visit the Promised Messiah as from the Afghanistan territory. After a handshake, The Promised Messiah as inquired about the details of his travel and difficulties of the journey. Following this, there was mention of the lack of liberty and freedom from the government of Afghanistan. 1 The Promised Messiah as said: What is being written these days in the newspapers that the people of every religion have fundamental freedom under the Afghanistan government is totally a lie that will bear no fruit. Because if the people of every religion in Afghanistan had the liberty and freedom like that of India, Noble Maulaw i Muhammad ‘Abdul-Lat i f ra would not have been killed so mer- cilessly under this government due to religious differences. 2 1. From Badr : ‘Afghanistan was under discussion that it was hoped that would be very beneficial if the people of our Jam a ‘at that were present there contin- ued their preaching activities. The Promised Messiah as said: Even if one person comes to understand faith thoroughly through you, it is a deed of great spiritual reward. ’ ( Badr , vol. 6, no. 8, p. 4, dated 21 February 1907) 2. From Badr : ‘Anyhow, our hope lies in God Almighty that He will certainly bring into being some path that will facilitate full preaching in these coun- tries. ’ ( Badr , vol. 6, no. 8, p. 4, dated 21 February 1907)
