The Promised Messiah and Mahdi — Page 49
THE PROMISED MESSIAH AND MAHDI repeatedly called the coming Messiah as a 'prophet of God' in his traditions as recorded in authentic Hadith. (Muslim, Ch-Zikr-udDajjal). The two positions can be summed up. According to one, an old prophet (Jesus) ascended to heaven with his physical body where he is still alive and is in reserve to descend from the sky and become at. Messiah for Muslims and during his second life on earth he will still be a prophet. The second position is that a devout follower and lover of the Holy Prophet Mohammad, peace be on him, who has not descended from the sky, has been blessed with the status of a Messiah and a follower prophet. It is worth noting that both positions considered coming of a prophet after the Holy Prophet Mohammad, peace be on him. Are not we Ahmadi Muslims justified in asking other orthodox Muslims that you raise so much fury because we believe Hadhrat Ahmad to be a follower and a subordinate prophet whereas they themselves believe that a prophet will descend from heaven after Prophet Mohammad?. Which of the two positions is more logical and in accordance with the teachings of the Quran and honour of the Holy Prophet? alisla. P 49
