Furthermore, Maulana Burhan Ahmad Sahib Zaffar, Nazar ‘Nashro Isha’at’ Qadian, gave approval for publication of the book in India. Getting the manuscript ready for publication and supervising the publication process is a daunting task. This work was accomplished through the sincere efforts of dear Khursheed Ahmad Khadim Sahib and respected Mansoor Ahmad Sahib, teacher Jami’a Ahmadiyya Qadian. Maulana Munir Ahmad Khadim Sahib, Additional Nazar ‘Islaho Irshad’ (Talimul Quran), Qadian, and Chief Editor, The Weekly Badr , Qadian, helped a lot by giving very beneficial suggestions and through his prayers.
