Testimony of the Holy Quran — Page 105
HADRAT MIRZA GHULAM AHMADAS 105 of misguidance, the trumpet will be blown and people of all faiths will be assembled together. And after these verses, the mention of Hell is a separate statement as per the characteristic style of the Holy Quran, because it is a common practice of the Holy Quran that on occasions where a matter related to this world is being discussed, mention of the Hereafter is added to it because of some similarity. Those who ponder over the Holy Quran are not una- ware of this recurring pattern. THE THIRD POINT AT Issue was what proof is there that the Promised Messiah who has been mentioned at various places in Holy Quran and aḥādīth is this humble one? In my view, in writ- ing out the arguments for this point, there is no need to be ver- bose. I have proved in this book that a person from among this ummah must come in the name of Masīḥ, peace be upon him. It is necessary for three reasons: THE FIRST is that the complete and perfect resemblance between our Holy Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and Hadrat Mūsā [Moses], peace be upon him, implied by the following verse كَمَا اَرْسَلْنَا إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ رَسُولًا demands it. The reason is that the verse, إِنَّا أَرْسَلْنَا إِلَيْكُمْ رَسُولًا شَاهِدًا عَلَيْكُمْ كَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ رَسُولًا 2 1.
