A Review of the Pakistani Government’s “White Paper”: Qadiyaniyyat—A Grave Threat to Islam [ 3 ] An Invitation to All to Calmly Consider the Matter The argument is that: since the Ahmad i s cannot survive in Muslim countries, they want to destroy them. It is a strange argument, which is based on completely false premises and is full of contradictions. For example, it is said that the Ahmadiyyah Muslim Jam a ‘at has not made progress in Muslim countries, and out of vengeance, it wants to destroy these countries. If this supposition is correct, then one con- clusion is that since the Ahmadiyyah Muslim Jam a ‘at has made progress in Pakistan, Pakistan should be in no danger from it. Then what is the explanation of the Pakistani gov- ernment’s restrictions that are being imposed on the Ahmadiyyah Muslim Jam a ‘at? Different lawyers in the ‘Religious Court’ presented the same argument that: this Jam a ‘at is spreading far and wide through preaching, and they cannot tolerate it. The most talked about subject dur- ing the 1974 riots—and in earlier incidents as well—was that Ahmad i s seemed unstoppable, and they were progress- ing rapidly. Then why would the Ahmadiyyah Muslim Jam a ‘at feel any danger that they would not be able to spread and live in that country [Pakistan]. Or you should conclude that Pakistan is not an Islamic country, which would explain why the Ahmadiyyah Muslim Jam a ‘at is spreading in it. But, if Pakistan is not an Islamic country, then who are you to be its guardian and its defender? Then you have no concern with it; it is a non-Islamic country
