Khutbat-e-Tahir Vol 1 396 September 24, 1982 achieved here, because there is one gentleman left out who is missing unfortunately۔So fifty percent of local Ahmadis are here and that is one! This is (a) shame۔This is a point for us to ponder and reflect۔What have you been doing here, all of you; young, youth and old and ladies and gentlemen? Who came from Pakistan or some other countries to seek employment here or to do business۔That was not the fundamental thing in you۔The most overriding thing in an Ahmadi should be the message of Islam۔Don't leave it to the missionaries۔They simply can not do it alone۔It is you who are going to take up the cajole, otherwise, Islam will remain in this defeated state, as you find it today۔Read the early history of Islam and you'll come to know, that, in fact, it was not a clergy, because there are no such things as clergy in Islam, which brought about the great revolution over the world۔Who converted China? Go to the history of Islam and then you'll find out; not not a single missionary was sent to China۔I mean those four provinces of China which are predominantly Muslim۔The four big provinces who have become almost entirely Muslim, and not a single creature was sent to them by any Muslim ruler۔Just tradesmen, those who sought employment as you have sought employment today, they went to China۔Who converted Indonesia? Neither a sword nor such
