14 FRIDAY SERMON O F HI S HOLINE SS M IRZA M A S ROOR AH MAD aba In the verses that I recited from the Holy Qur’an, God the Almighty has also drawn the attention of the believers towards their responsibilities; that it is their duty to invoke Durood and Salaam (salutations and peace) upon the Holy Prophet sa. Vulgarities, maliciousness and mockery do not in the least affect the honour and dignity of the Prophet sa in any way, shape or form. He is such a great Prophet sa upon whom even God and His angels send Durood. It is thus the duty of believers to constantly engage in Durood (invoking blessings and salutations) upon the Holy Prophet sa. When the enemy exceeds in vulgar acts, then they should invoke Durood upon the Holy Prophet sa more than before. Bless O Allah, Muhammad and the people of Muhammad, as You did bless Abraham and the people of Abraham; You are indeed the Praiseworthy, the Glorious! Prosper, O Allah, Muhammad and the people of Muhammad, as You did prosper Abraham, and the people of Abraham; You are indeed the Praiseworthy, the Glorious! Thus this alone is the Durood (invocation of salutations and blessings) and this alone is the Prophet sa for whom triumph in the world is des- tined. While an Ahmadi Muslim expresses abhorrence, deep grief and anger at these vulgar acts, he or she also tries to draw the attention of the wrongdoers themselves to desisting from these acts and those in authority
