I am certain that some of us are genuinely interested to discover the truth and learn about the actual claims of the founders and leaders of Qadianism from original sources. This habit of jumping from thread to thread, asking questions and expecting immediate answers, or calling names and making unfounded and unproven accusation will only reinforce the idea that some of the Qadianis are indeed employing the strategy of Christian missionaries: they too try to confuse the matter without ever wanting to engage in a search for truth. I suggest to you, brother, that this is not the proper nor productive way of reaching to the truth and discussing issues. If you believe there has been a misunderstanding between Muslims and Qadianis, the proper way is to provide evidence, from original sources, to the contrary. Doesn't that sound more plausible? You can be certain that Muslims have your various questions and allegations on file and will, enshaAllah, get to them very soon. There is certainly no need to repeat them over and over again, please be patient. There is only so much we can do and we need to give proper priority to what we believe to be more productive use of time. I, for one, do not see any need to argue over things and waste time jumping from topic to topic, until we have nailed down what each side stands for. I hope that you will also try to help us discover what your leaders have claimed about the Finality of Prophethood. Quite frankly, this forum is not set up to see how people respond to each other's personal claims and conjectures. This is set up to evaluate the claims of Islam versus Ahmadiyyat, from their authentic sources. It would be futile and a waste of time to engage in endless debate when those who claim to be Qadianis are not even representing the official views of their leaders and founders. I am sure that by now many Muslims are justifiably wondering, "if Qadianis believe to have been blessed by their leadership, why do they shrink from sharing authentic information about the claims of their founders? Where is this blessing and guidance that we constantly hear about? What Qadianis call blessing is, more and more, beginning to resemble the empty blessings that the Christian missionaries boast about!" Is this what you and others would like others to conclude from your own actions? As I've mentioned, we Muslims believe in the absolute Finality of Prophethood in Muhammad(SAW). Our Idara, as well as other brothers, have produced evidence, from our religious text, to support our stance. Since Ahmadis appear to have been offering varying, often contradictory claims, we are also trying to find their stance, from their so-called religious books. Certainly, no reasonable person can object to that! Again, brother, Muslims have a problem with the claims of Qadianism. If an individual Qadiani claims not to hold the same ideas or raises other objections, it is irrelevant to our primary discussion. There are, unfortunately, some Muslims who also are ignorant of the teachings of Islam: this does not mean that their personal opinion should be taken as representative of the teachings of Islam. In my opinion, the same holds of Qadianis. Please help us to discover the truth by bringing evidence from the writings of your own founders and leaders. Thank you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ eGroup home: http://www.eGroups.com/list/qadianism
