Khilafat and Mujaddidiyyat — Page 12
12 Hadhrat Hafiz Mirza Nasir Ahmad Khalifa and Jama’at are the Same Thing It is wrong to think that the Khalifa of the time and the Jama’at Ahmadiyya are two different things. Allah the Exalted has favoured the Jama’at with tremendous grace. Jama’at Ahmadiyya and the Imam Jama’at Ahmadiyya are two names of one and the same thing. It is with the combination of both that one thing is formulated which is a symbol of coordination. The project of taking the grand revolution to its climax essentially requires coordination to achieve success. There should be no internal dissension in the Jama’at. The injunction: ﹸﻮﺍ ﱠﻗ ﹶﺮ ﺗَﻔ ﻭَﻻﹶ ﺟَﻤِﻴﻌﺎﹰ ِ ﹼﻪ ﺍﻟﻠ ﺑﹺﺤَﺒْﻞﹺ ُﻮﺍﹾ ﻭَﺍﻋْﺘَﺼِﻤ And hold fast, all together, by the rope of Allah and be not divided 7 must always be kept in view and dissension must be avoided from all directions. Secondly, there should be coordination in all projects planned and tasks performed for the dominance of Islam. For instance, there is a project which is to be started in June of, next year, Insha Allah , wherewith Christianity is to be invited towards Islam under a special project. The project is ready. Now as the entire Jama’at is united, the mutual consultation of the Jama’at and myself prepared the project and it is being implemented. 7. The Holy Quran, 3:104
