Through Force or Faith? — Page 35
Refutation of the Allegations Made Against Islam 35 was confirmed by the voice of Mahomet: his proselytes, from India to Morocco, are distinguished by the name of Unitarians; and the danger of idolatry has been prevented by the interdiction of images. ( The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, by Edward Gibbon, vol. V, pp. 203–204, published in 1788, London) Thus it is the God of Islam that compels everyone, who reflects, to admit that prudent logical arguments are found in the God of Islam. In the end I tell every Ahmad i that with all these battlefronts being opened against Islam, we can only pass through them suc- cessfully by bowing before God and by seeking His help. Therefore, call upon Him more than ever before that He should manifest His Providence, and the world is rid of false gods. Today, these people are targeting Islam and the Holy Prophet s as due to the arrogance of their wealth and power, but their arrogance will be broken by the arrows of our prayers, God willing. Therefore, call upon that God who is the God of the Universe, who is the Lord of the Worlds, who is the God of Muhammad the Elect, the Chosen One s as so that the dominion of that One and Only God is established on earth ever so soon. Muslim countries should also heed. They should end their petty differences. They should end their mutual bickering and rivalries. They should work in coalition to raise the name of the Holy Prophet s as. They should abstain from such actions that would prompt the others to point a finger at them. May Allah help them!
