510 MALFŪZĀT - ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF URDU VOLUME 9 forbid, yet deem Prophet Jesusas as pure. What a travesty of jus- tice that despite understanding the Holy Prophet, may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, to be Khātamul-Anbiya' [the Seal of the Prophets], reciting his creed, and claiming to be among his Ummah, they disobey and accuse him. These are the Latter Days, and perhaps the Christians will find guidance; but these people will not abandon their belief. Rather, they will continue to support it. They do not think so much as when the Holy Prophet, may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, was demanded for a miracle: 1 أَوْ تَرْقَى فِي السَّمَاءِ to ascend into the heavens, God Almighty responded: قُلْ سُبْحَانَ رَبِّي هَلْ كُنْتُ إِلَّا بَشَرًا رَسُولًا Meaning that, Holy is God that He may go against His prom- ises, I am just a human Messenger; human Messengers do not ascend into the heavens. Now these people who raise Prophet Jesusas into the heav- ens, show that they do not take him to be a human as for a human it is a promise of God Almighty that they cannot go into the heavens. In reality, these people are bitter enemies of Islam. A person who does not have respect for the Holy Prophet, may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, is faithless. God Almighty has regard even for a believer as He says: 1. Sūrah Bani Isrā'īl, 17:94 [Publisher] 2. Sūrah Bani Isrā'īl, 17:94 [Publisher]
