35 [ Jesus] has not died as of yet. When he dies, I will raise his spirit 1 to Myself. ’ But the evasive answer given above this has nothing to do with the point at issue. Likewise, you believe that the Holy Prophet, peace and bless - ings of Allah be upon him, told a lie when he said that he had seen ‘ I s a among the souls of the dead who had already left this world. May I ask you how a man in his physical body can sit among the [heavenly] souls and reach the next world without having been dispossessed of his earthly life? I wonder what kind of faith you have; for God, by His word, bears witness that ‘ I s a is dead but you do not accept His testimony. The Prophet s as also gave his tes - timony through his action, i. e. through his eyewitness account. He saw him among the souls of the dead; however, you reject this testimony as well. And yet you claim to be Muslim and take pride in being ‘Ahl-e-Hadith’. The Holy Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, did not even speak with ‘ I s a on the night of Mi‘r a j [spiritual ascension to Heaven]. Instead, it was M u s a [Moses] with whom he had a discourse. The Holy Quran says that one should not be doubtful about the meeting of the Holy Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, with M u s a. Hence, what an extremely repulsive lie it is that you have ascribed to both God and His Messenger. 1. The Jews did not know that Hadrat Mas ih had become unconscious. This was the uncertainty that they was inflicted upon them. And since they thought that ‘ I s a had died on the cross they did not believe in his spiritual ascension, nor do they believe in it until now. In order to re - fute them, the only matter that needs to be addressed is the spiritual ascension, as they do not believe that salvation depends upon physical ascension. (Author)
