Malfuzat - English translation of Urdu Volume 7 454 peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and rejected the one who had come as the H akam [Arbiter]. Then how are they going to comprehend? ْ م ُ ك ِْنْ م ْ م ُ ك ُ م َا م ِ ا ْ م ُ ك ِْنْ م ْ م ُ ك ُ م َا م ِ ا was to clearly show that the coming Imam would be from among you, but they are not content with this. They are happy to make this Ummah the Worst Ummah and Jewish, but they cannot accept the coming of the Messiah and Imam to be from this Ummah!!! Now, alternatively they must admit that [ Jesus] the Messiah is misguided (God forbid) as the Christians have confessed that he is accursed (God forbid). Christians called him accursed, but they are oblivious to the meaning of this term. Had they known beforehand that the meaning of curse was this, they would have never said so. I wrote to Fateh Mas ih that the understanding of ‘curse’ is that the accursed is removed from the threshold of God and God is disgusted with him and he is disgusted with God and has joined Satan. Now tell me do you still appoint this word for the Messiah? Ultimately, he could not write a rebuttal. In fact, there is no rebuttal to this whatsoever. They mistak- enly coined this term for him, unaware of the meaning of the word ‘curse’. Now that they know, they are worried about what to do. 1 In the same way, if these people take a look at the meaning of ‘Ummat i ’ and ponder upon it, they will not make a mis- take because the meaning of ‘Ummat i ’ is indeed that he should benefit and develop due to the blessings and graciousness of the Holy Prophet, may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. But the one for whom they say is already a Prophet, what opportunity did he have to benefit from the Holy Prophet, may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him? 1.
