Invitation to Ahmadiyyat — Page 383

383 still easy. I invite you to value this time and to join those who are loved by God by responding to His call, saying: 9 ۤاَنَّبَر اَنَّنِا اَنْعِمَس اًيِداَنُم ْيِداَنُّي ِناَمْيِاْلِل ْنَا اْوُنِمٰا ْمُكِّبَرِب اَّنَمٰاَف١ۖۗ Our Lord, we have heard a Crier calling us unto faith, ‘Believe ye in your Lord,’ and we have believed. I say truly that nobody can find God today outside Ahmadiyyat. Anyone who searches his heart will admit that he does not have such firm faith in God’s words as one should have in indubitable realities. He will also fail to find in his heart the light by which he can behold the face of God. This certainty, this conviction and this light will not be found outside the Community of the Promised Messiah as. God has willed to bring everyone together on one hand. He who knows that death is certain cannot accept a life remote from God and devoid of His Light. Hasten, there - fore, to the Light and to the conviction that you will find today in Ahmadiyyat alone, without which life can have no charm. Lead others in your declaration of faith so that you are remembered with honour and respect and so that believers who come after you pray for you to the end of days. True, those who join a Divine movement have to carry a heavy burden, but not every burden is burdensome. Does the peasant who carries on his back the produce of his labour see his load as a burden? Does the mother who carries her baby in her arms consider the baby to be a burden? Likewise, serving the faith of Allah and striving on its behalf is no burden for believers. Others may think it a burden, but for believers, it is a source of joy and peace. Do not be overawed by the responsibilities you will incur
