The Verdict of the Holy Quran and Sunnah 5 not Hadrat Im a m B a qir rh related this tradition in order to show the Im a m Mahd i ’s superiority over the Holy Prophet sa. It must also be noted that this tradition can be found in the book of H ad i th entitled, Sunan Ad-D a r Qu t n i , which is highly regarded by Sunni scholars. Further, B a w a Sahib has shown us here some glimpses of his dishonesty as well, seeing as just two couplets later, in the same poem, the Promised Messiah as writes: How can the shadow be different from its principal; Therefore, the light that shines in him, shines upon my face as well. ( I‘j a z-e-Ahmad i , p. 71, R uha n i Khaz a ’in , vol. 19, p. 183) The Promised Messiah as further states: Whatever signs appear in my support are, in fact, all miracles of the Holy Prophet sa. ( Tatimmah Haqiqatul-Wahi , p. 35, R uha n i Khaz a ’in , vol. 22, p. 469) To conclude, while these aforementioned texts of the Promised Messiah as are decisive on this matter, B a w a Sahib goes about hiding them from the simple-minded public. In view of his blatant dishonesty, all his objections lose their credibility.
