54 A A similar case of © adhrat Maul ā n ā Nazeer A ™ mad Mubashir is worth mentioning here. This happened when he was serving as missionary of Isl ā m in Ghana. A young man who had returned from Mecca started propagating that A ™ mad ī s were misleading the public whereas Im ā m Mahd ī had not yet appeared. Maul ā n ā Nazeer A ™ mad Mubashir went to his village Saraha where he used to live. When challenged by Maul ā n ā Mubashir, he was not prepared to talk. Maul ā n ā held a grand Jalsa and made a wonderful speech regarding the signs of appearance of Mahd ī. After the speech he returned to his headquarters. But the opponents started bringing out processions with white turbans on their heads and waving white flags. They would sing in their processions that they had won and Mahd ī had not yet appeared. Had he appeared, earthquake must have accompanied it. This was the demand of the opponents, which was beyond the human power to be fulfilled. There is no doubt that God Almighty, Master of Heaven and earth can do what He likes. So He showed the miracle to manifest the truth of Im ā m Mahd ī that a powerful earthquake rocked whole Ghana. Now, the same opponents, who would say that Mahd ī had not appeared as no earthquake had taken place, would sing in the streets with monochords that Mahd ī of Muslims had come as earthquake had come. Praise be to the Lord. He shook the whole of Ghana to prove the truth of His Mahd ī and showed a living proof of His power and strength, providing source of guidance for many Ghanaians. [31]
