An Admonitory Sign — Page 19
A Review of the Pakistani Government’s “White Paper”: Qadiyaniyyat—A Grave Threat to Islam [ 19 ] Early Warnings of Future Chastisements As I have explained, it is saddening that these people are not stopping. They are advancing every day in their absti- nence and insolence. And this warning that God has given them today, it appears that they will not benefit from it. Instead they will deride and ridicule and will say that the storm was after all averted, we deserve that we should be saved, as if this sign has appeared in their favour, that, in fact, it is not a warning for them as such events have occurred in the past. The real warning is that if they do not desist even now, the chastisement from God shall come in such a way that: 11 you will have no room to step back or step to the right or the left. There will be no room to move forward. These are such signs of chastisement that always appear and are shown as a warning. Indeed they point to the events yet to come. Only if someone would benefit from them. But it appears that, as it was the fate of the people of the past, even today people would deny after seeing the sign. Therefore I discharge my duty by warning this nation in the words of the Promised Messiah as. This will be a warning in the religious sense. It is possible that they will not understand these things because they have not seen 11. …but it was no longer the time for escape. ( S u rah Sa d , 38:4). . .
