12 Eik Ghalațī Kā Izāla as Rasul and Nabī, likewise do my opponents say about Jesus son of Maryas that he will come again after our Holy Prophetsa. Since Jesusas is a Prophet, the same objection of the breaking of the Seal of Khatamun Nabiyyīn will be raised against him as is raised against me. But I say that, after the Holy Prophetsa, who was Khatamun Nabiyyīn, there can be no objec- tion whatsoever to my being addressed as Rasul or Nabī, nor does this break the Seal. I have stated repeat- edly that, in accordance with the verse: وَآخَرِيْنَ مِنْهُمْ لَمَّا يَلْحَقُوا بِهِمْ 25 As Burūz, I am the same Prophet Khatamun Nabiyyīna. It was twenty years ago, in Brāhīn-e- Ahmadiyya, that God named me 'Muhammadsa' and 'Ahmadsa' and declared me to be the Holy Prophetsa. Thus, the status of the Holy Prophetsa as Khātamun Nabiyyīn is by no means in peril due to my Prophethood, since the Zill is never independent of the original. Since I am Muhammadsa by way of Zill, therefore, the Seal of Khatamun Nabiyyīn remains intact, and the Prophethood of Muhammadsa remains confined to Muhammadsa. This means that in all events it is Muhammadsa who remains the Prophet and no one else. 25 And among others from among them who have not yet joined them. - Al-Jumu'ah, 62:4 [Publishers]
