Welcome to Ahmadiyyat, The True Islam — Page 234
− viii. Purify Islam of extraneous errors and to present and − propagate a true picture of Islam. − The Promised Messiah and Mahdi writes about his mission: as − "The purpose for which God has appointed me is that I should remove the malaise that afflicts the relationship between God and His creatures, and should restore the relationship of love and sincerity between them. Through the proclamation of truth I should bring about peace by putting an end to religious wars and should manifest the verities which have become hidden from the eyes of the world. I am called upon to demonstrate that spirituality, which has been overlaid by selfish darkness. It is for me to demonstrate in practice and not only in words, the Divine attributes which penetrate into the hearts of people and are manifested through prayer and concentration. Most of all it is my purpose to plant once more in the hearts of people the pure and shining unity of God which is free from every suspicion of paganism and which has completely disappeared. All this will be accomplished not through my power, but through the Power of Him Who is the God of Heaven and earth. " (Lecture Lahore, p 47) "God has sent me into the world so that through gentleness, kindness and meekness, I should draw towards God and His Holy Guidance such people as are involved in error, and should make them tread along the path of righteousness to the light which has been bestowed upon me. Man stands in need of such reasoning as would convince him that God exists, inasmuch as a great part of the world is being driven to ruin for lack of faith in the existence of God Almighty and His revealed Guidance. There is no clearer and easier way of believing in the existence of God that He reveals to His special servants that which is hidden and will come to pass in the future. He discloses to those who are close to Him the hidden secrets, which are beyond the power of human intellect and faculties to discover. There is no way for man to be enlightened through his own efforts about the secrets of the future, which are beyond the reach of human faculties, especially those matters which are related to existence, Divine power and command. 234
