Ansarullah are one wall, the second is Khuddamul Ahmadiyya,the third is Atfalul Ahmadiyya and the fourth is Lajna Ima'illah. If all of these ffour} walls get separated from each other, essentialry no building can remain standing. A building is complete onry when all its four walls are joined to each other. However, if they stand separatery, then the value of all four is not even equal to one. (Tareekh Ansarullah, First Edition published in 1978 p. 83) the grave, is nothing but offering merely the leftover. Hopefully, Ahmadi youth as well as women will fully strive towards it.
