Mr. McKloskey: Please tell me why are you along with all non-Ahmadi Muslims waiting for Issa (AS) to descend from heaven? According to you all that is needed for the spiritual purity and guidance of Muslims has already been provided. (2). Prophet Muhammad (SAS) said that in later days, there will be Quran but in words only (no action). There will be ulema but they would be the worst human beings on the face of the earth. Could you please tell me if these prophesies of Prophet Muhammad (SAS) apply today or not? Are the so called ulema not inciting one Muslim against the other? Is Quran not left only in words? Are Muslims following Quran? Please think again. Allah sends warners when sin spreads far and wide in the world. That warner, according to Quran, is always jeered, laughed at and persecuted? Is this not happening to the person of Mirza Sahib and his followers. I suggest that, in cognito, you visit an Ahmadiyya mosque and see how energetically they are trying to spread Islam (The Islam revealed to Prophet Muhammad (SAS) and not as interpretted by the non-Ahmadi ulema). Your visit is a must if you want to be an honest critic of Ahmadiyyat. The Prophet said,"Whem my Issa (AS) comes he will bring back the belief even if it has gone to far off stars". In just one hadith the Prophet called Issa (AS) nabi Allah four times. Wassalaam. On Fri, 5 Feb 1999, Umar Aadil Abdul Rahman McKloskey wrote: > There are two types of prophethood. > > 1.
