Malfuzat - English translation of Urdu Volume 10 6 Allah be upon him, is being manifested in the spirit of his name ‘Ahmad’, this Jama’at is (named) ‘Ahmadi’. This name was reserved for this era and this Jama’at. Previously some people became the leaders of some Jama’at and had ‘Ahmad’ as part of their name but God did not allow any Jama’ats to be named ‘Ahmadi’. For instance, there was Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal. His Jama’at was called ‘Hanbali’. There was Syed Ahmad Barelvi. His Jama’at was called ‘Mujahidin’. There was Sayyed Ahmad of Aligarh. People who shared his views were called ‘Naturalist’ and so on. No one has ever been named ‘Ahmadi’. 1 Undated Admonitory Occasions for Physicians Different diseases were being discussed. The Promised Messiah as observed: Doctors have much occasion to derive benefit from observing tragic spectacles. All kinds of sick people come to them. Some get their hands and feet amputated. Others are so sick that they are like ِ َ مْوَات ْأ َآء ِ وَل َ مِن َ ال ی ْ َح ْأ ل َ مِن َ ال ِ َ مْوَات ْأ َآء ِ وَل َ مِن َ ال ی ْ َح ْأ ل َ مِن َ ال they can neither be counted among the living nor among the dead. 1.
