Khalifatul Masih As Seen By His Master And Others 199 A Journalist's View : A well-known journalist from Amristsar, Muhammad Aslam, came to Qadian in March 1912 and spent time in Qadian, and later wrote extensively about Qadian, the Jama ‘ at and Hadhrat Khalifatul Masih I ra. He writes: "The world of Islam is threatened with some terrible dangers and this prompted me to examine the claims of the Ahmadiyya Jama ‘ at whether they could, by writing and by lectures, be able to subdue the whole world and bring them into the fold of Islam and whether they had the capability to do so. I believe, they do. " This is what he wrote after he had a meeting with Hadhrat Khalifatul Masih I ra : "I have spent two days in sessions of Majlis- i-Irfaan of Hakeem Noor-ud-Deen, now the Khalifa of Mirza Sahib. I looked at him, listened to him, and I believe he is a very pious man entirely devoted to God. His conduct and behaviour is completely devoid of hypocrisy. True reflection of the Unity of God and the greatness of the Holy Qur'an were clearly visible in him. Whatever he says and his commentary of the Holy Qur'an quenched the thirst of those who are eager to know more about God and the Holy Qur'an. If the true Islam is the Holy Qur'an, the true love of the Holy Qur'an is greatly visible in Maulavi Sahib. The remarkable commentary which I heard from him, I never heard before, and very few have that capability to go into the Divine meanings like he does. ” ( Ta ’ ssuraat-i-Qadian by Fazal Hussain, pp. 132-135) Interviews With His Contemporaries The writer of the thesis, Muhammad Idrees, had the opportunity of interviewing three personalities, who had seen Hadhrat Khalifatul Masih I ra in action.
