FASTING DURING RAMADHAN. AND BREAKING OF FAST. The author of this extremely obnoxious publication makes a vile suggestion that Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmadas refrained habitually, from observing the fast during the month of.

Otherwise, had he been honest in his motivation, he would have translated the actual passage in Seeratul Mahdi with honesty and also not expunged a large section of it - particularly, the sections which establish that Hadhrat Ahmad as did not fast throughout the period of. Ramadhan for a number of years only and that too while he was not enjoying the best of health on account of the attacks of headache and cold feet syndrome which he developed in the later part of his life. . To illustrate the extent of deception to which the author of Two in One has resorted in this instance once again, one quotes. Hadhrat Mirza Bashir Ahmad's as statement from within which. Abdul Hafeez has extracted a few lines at random and joined together to create a totally false and different impression from what was originally stated. It reads: ra 'Hadhrat Amajan narrated to me that when Hadhrat Masih e. Mawoods began to have attacks, [these attacks have been 240. Shah, Syed Abdul Hafeez. Two in One, p. 10 178
