But, like Abdul Hafeez who denies Hadhrat Ahmadas and not only believes that it is not proper for a prophet of God to suffer from illness but also ridicules him, the deniers of Hadhrat. Muhammad also do not consider his suffering from disease and illness to be proper. Hence, they deny and ridicule the. Prophet of Islams on account of it. If the author of Two in One were to ever read what these enemies of Islam have written against Hadhrat Muhammadsa, one is certain that he would positively see himself in their reflection. This may even give. Abdul Hafeez cause to add a sketch of himself in the future editions of Two in One, looking in a mirror and seeing himself in the reflection of people like John of Damascus or Theophanes;. C. G. Phander or Abdullah Athim; Pundit Lekh Ram or Swami. Daya Nand and many others like them who have previously made obnoxious references in relation to the state of Hadhrat. Muhammad'ssa health. Otherwise, Abdul Hafeez would have known that according to Hadhrat Muhammadsa, illness and suffering is a blessing bestowed upon human beings by God. Almighty. Hence he stated: 'No Muslim is afflicted with any harm, even if it were a prick of thorn, but that Allah expiates his sins because of that, as a tree sheds its leaves. " 186. In another Hadeeth reported on the authority of Hadhrat Ibn. Abbas, it is stated that when Hadhrat Muhammad visited an ailing person, he stated to the person: 'Don't worry, it will be expiation for your sins. 187. But people of such limited understanding as the author of Two in One, Abdul Hafeez cannot be expected to appreciate the wisdom of these statements made by the wisest of the wise men known to the history of mankind - Hadhrat Muhammad.
