Conditions of Bai'at and Responsibilities of an Ahmadi — Page 3
i n t r o d u c t i o n [From the concluding address delivered at the Annual Convention of the Ahmadiyyah Muslim Jam a ‘at, United Kingdom, on July 27, 2003, in which first three conditions of bai‘at were explained in detail. ] S o me members of the Jam a ‘at have written to me saying that: ‘We have renewed our bai‘at [pledge of initiation] at your hand and have pledged to abide by the conditions of bai‘at , but we do not have full awareness and knowledge of those ten Conditions. ’ I thought that I should address this subject on the occasion of the Annual Convention 1 today. Since the subject is long I cannot cover all conditions now but I will only cover a few. I will insh a ’Allah continue this subject in a subsequent Friday sermon or some other occasion. 1. Reference is to the concluding address delivered at the Annual Convention of the Ahmadiyyah Muslim Jam a ‘at, United Kingdom on July 27, 2003, in which first three con- ditions of bai‘at were explained in detail.
