72 So Maulaw i Irfani Sahib, unless you demolish these men you have no right to abuse the true and righteous people. Maulaw i Sahib! We know that an abundance of titles is a sign of honour. If a non-Ahrari were to count the titles of your leader, e. g. Am i r-e-Shari‘at [Leader of the Islamic law], ‘A ta ’ull a h [Gift from God], Sh a h [King], Bukh a r i , Mercy for the World, etc. , and were then to call him a chameleon, what reply would you give? Seal of Prophets Maulaw i Abul Bash i r takes an excerpt for the writings of Hadrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad and fraudulently entitles it, ‘I am the Seal of Prophets’. What Hadrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad actually wrote was: I have repeatedly said before that in accordance with the verse َو َنْیِرَخٰا ْمُھْنِم اَّمَل اْوُقَحْلَی ْمِہِب , I am a reflection [ bur u z ] of the same Prophet, the Seal of Prophets [ Kh a tamun-Nabiyy i n ]. ( A Misconception Removed, p. 12; see also Aik Ghala t i k a Iz a lah, Ru ha n i Khaz a ’in, vol. 18, p. 212) Respected readers! You have already seen the dishonest means that Maulaw i Sahib employs. Hadrat Mirza Sahib, neither in the above quotation nor in any other of his writings, has ever claimed to be the Seal of Prophets. Here, and wherever this subject comes up, he always describes himself as a reflection and shadow of the Holy Prophet s as. So whosoever makes such allegations, as Maulaw i Sahib has done, is indeed a liar.
