An appendix presenting further arguments is also given at the back. Readers are advised to repeat the salutation ‘Ṣallallāhu ‘Alaihi Wa Sallam’ (may peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) whenever reference is made to the Holy Prophet, and to say ‘Alaihis - Salām (may peace be on him) in the case of all other messengers of Allāh. I would like to thank my son-in-law, Mr. Waqar A ḥ mad A ḥmadī and my daughter Mrs. Wajeeha Bajwa A ḥmadī for their contribution in producing this guide. May Allāh reward them.

I first purchased only one copy. After arriv ing at the Jāmi‘ah later that evening, I began to read this book. I read it almost all night. I kept saying Al- Ḥamdu Lillāh as I continued to read this blessed guide for carrying out Field Tablīgh. I concluded that this book is the spiritual tool for preparing A ḥmadiyya Jamā‘at USA to go into the field and preach Islām through Aḥ madiyyat. Missionary Naseem A ḥ mad Bajwa has written a masterpiece for A ḥmadiyya Jamā‘ats around the world to prepare themselves mentally and spiritually to go out and engage in Tabl īgh. This book, if it has not been done already, should be printed in as many different languages as possible and become the spiritual tool for carrying out field Tablīgh around the world, In Shā Allāh.
