The Promised Messiah and Mahdi — Page 97
THE PROMISED MESSIAH AND MAHDI the truth than such an idea. Our purpose of writing about such a prophecy of frightful destruction facing humanity is the same as was of the Promised Messiah, that is to serve as a warning to people and nations to turn to God with repentance and righteous actions so that the impending danger may be removed. . The Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be on him) when informed about punishment of disbelievers of his time and that of the latter days, was so grieved that he was admonished by Allah in the. Holy Quran not to grieve himself to death because disbelievers would not believe. The Holy Prophet has been given the title of "Mercy for mankind" by Allah in the Holy Quran. The Promised Messiah, the deputy of the Holy Prophet, has declared in his writings that he wanted to make it clear to all the Christians, the Hindus, the Jews and others that he did not regard any of them as his personal enemy, but he was only the enemy of untruth, evil and deceit. The Promised. Messiah said that he had the same feelings of compassion and solicitude for mankind as a mother has for her children. A true. Muslim when he realizes that his nation or mankind as a whole is moving along the path which leads to disaster, does all what he can to avert the danger and always prays to Allah to forgive the disbelievers and the sinners and bestow His mercy and save them from destruction. . Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful and Master of reward and punishment, forgives whom he wills and punishes whom He wills according to His divine wisdom and divine judgment. alistam. P 97
