Eighth Argument: Follower and subordinate of Mohammad (pbuh)
| [ BACK ] | If Hazrat
Mirza had indeed claimed to be a prophet, he would not
have called himself a follower and subordinate of the
Holy Prophet Muhammad, as in the following quotes: ``Almighty God says [in the Holy Quran]: wa ma arsal-na min rasul-in illa li-yuta`a bi-izn Allah. That is, every messenger (rasul) is sent to be a master and leader, not to be a disciple and subordinate of someone else.'' (Izala Auham, p. 569) ``No messenger (rasul) comes into the world as a disciple and subordinate. Rather, he is a leader, and follows only his revelation which descends on him through angel Gabriel.'' (Izala Auham, p. 576) ``I have not made any claim to prophethood (nubuwwat). This is your mistake, or perhaps you have some motive in mind. Is it necessary that a person who claims to receive revelation should also be a prophet(nabi)? I am a Muslim, and fully follow Allah and His Messenger.'' (Jang Muqaddas, p. 67) |
