Some Prophecies of Hazrat Ahmad - A Critical Study — Page 46
news of his impending death gave him the occasion to write his last will and testament wherein he stated: 'To begin with, all praise is due to God, the Lord of all the worlds; and peace and blessings upon His Messenger, Hadhrat Muhammedsa, his progeny and his Companions, all. And after that, since in repeated revelations, coming one after the other, God Almighty has conveyed to me that the time of my demise is near and since revelations in this behalf have come to me with such repetition and force as to shake the foundation of my being, turning my heart cold to this life, I have deemed. it proper to set down in writing, some words of admonition and advice for my friends and other people who might be disposed to derive benefit from them. ". This Will, which Hadhrat Ahmadas hurried, contained several other revelations vouchsafed to him, to the effect that 'the end of his time was approaching” and 'not much was left before this event took place. " He also recorded that he was shown a vision wherein he beheld 'an angel measuring the ground and arriving at the location where his grave had been destined to be situated. "⁹. Incidentally, while the disciples of Hadhrat Ahmadas dreaded the fateful day when their master would depart from their company, many of his adversaries began to await the eventual outcome of these revelations in anticipation, ready to exploit the issue to their own advantage. Amongst these, there was also, a medical practitioner from Patiala, Dr. Abdul. Hakeem, who had been excommunicated from the Ahmadiyya Muslim. Community, on account of some perverse beliefs he had begun to entertain. . Dr. Abdul Hakeen of Patiala was naturally embittered with his excommunication but unable to avenge the humiliation suffered on account of his expulsion, he adopted an extremely antagonistic attitude towards the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. Consequently, he began to write against Hadhrat Ahmadas and, at one stage, even threatened to ‘expunge all such writings from his books which he had, prior to his excommunication, written in praise of Hadhrat Ahmadas.
