6. Fulfillment of a Grand Prophecy. The second chapter is an article sent by Hazrat Ahmad as to U. S. newspapers, which was published in 1907 in The Review of Religions.

The last chapter briefly presents the current status of the Ahmadiyya Movement that was founded by Hazrat Ahmadas in the year 1889 and its relentless march to its divinely destined goal of Islamic supremacy over all other faiths. .
