Odyssey of Sacrifice — Page 7
! 9 Foreword ! In the Name of Allah, the Gracious, the Mer c i ful We praise Him and invoke His bless ings upon His Exalted Prophet (sa). Respected Anwer Mahmood Khan, son of Hadhrat Maulana Abdul Malik Khan, is serving as Secretary Tehrik - e - Jadid of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community USA, thus may Allah give him the best reward. Last year he took a blessed step to increase participation in this divinely inspired scheme. He started collecting verses from the Holy Quran, sayings of our Holy Prophet (sa), writings and pronouncements of the Promised Messiah (as), and sayings from the Khulafa of Ahmadiyyat on the subject of financial sacrifice and he started sending these out as a continuous series to the community's chapters across America. Moreover, he sent this spiritual materi al to members of Majlis Khuddam ul - Ahmadiyya USA. Upon observing the effects of his efforts, and with the permission of Hazrat Khalifatul Masih V (a ba), Respected Bilal Rana, President Majlis Khuddamul - Ahmadiyya USA, decided to publish this material in book format. This collection is now being published with the permission of Hazur - e - Anwe r (aba). May Allah accept this effort and make it blessed in all aspects and May He make it a source of increase in the faith of all readers, Ameen. I’ve gone through this collection and I am confident that this will be a beautiful addition to Jama ’at l it e rature. Spending in Allah’s way is one of the important subjects of the Holy Quran. Writers and speakers will benefit from this a lot.
