Signs of the Living God — Page 34
Hazrat Mirza Bashir-ud-Din Mahmud Ahmad 34 so that you may become heirs to His grace. The Islam presented to you by the Christian clergy is a distortion and far removed from the truth. True Islam is a trove of abundant spiritual treasure as cannot be equalled by any other faith. [Jesus as ] the Messiah once said that a tree is recognised by its fruit. Do not look at Islam from the perspective by which its enemies wish you to see it. Instead look at it from the perspective shown to you by the Messiah as. See for yourself how sweet are the fruits born e by Islam. At the present time there is no religion in the world capable of furnishing living proof of its truth except for Islam. It alone provides evidence of its life and only by following it can a person come to speak with God. So accept it and bring faith in that prophet (the Promised Messiah as ) who attained his station from God through his complete loyalty to the Holy Prophet sa and by following the sharia of Islam. In this way you will be counted among those who follow all the commandments of God Almighty and accept all H is pr ophets and the [resting] soul of [Jesus] the Messiah as will be pleased with you. For only those who truly accept [Jesus as ] can also accept him who has come in his likeness. And those who reject the like of [Jesus as ] also reject him in whose name he came.
