( xiii ) Section of the Ahmadies, there seems to be no one who really believes in the real Islamic Khatm-i Nabuwwat. ” ( Paigham-i-Sulha , October 11, 1944 ) Earlier, in 1941, Maulvi Mohammad Ali had stated his belief in principle in the following words: “Without doubt, I hold that anyone who denies Khatm-i-Nabuwwat , he is irreligious, and out of the pale of Islam. ” ( Paigham-i-Sulha , January 27, 1941) In the presence of this quotation we are fully justified in holding this logical conclusion that in the eyes of Maulvi Mohammad Ali, with the exception of the Lahore Section of Ahmadies, all other reciters of the Kalima are outside the pale of Islam. We wonder how Mr. Faruqi would adjust his views in the face of this clear statement by Maulvi Mohammad Ali ? 8.

I understood there was decision from the throne of the Almighty, which Hazrat Mirza Sahib rose to announce, though he too seemed to be in the grip of fear. But he announced the verdict, in a voice full of anger. ” Khawaja Kamaluddin published this dream in his book, entitled Mojaddid-i-Kamil , and raised some objections against the way affairs of the Anjuman Isha’at-i-Islam, Lahore, was functioning, which drew a long reply from Maulvi Mohammad Ali. ( Paigham-i-Sulha. January, 27, 1931) May I beg to ask, Mr. Faruqui, if these eight points, I have here touched upon, constitute a sign of your victory?
