Mirza Bashir Ahmad describes Hazrat
Mirza Ghulam Ahmad as Mujaddid of the century
|
Mirza Bashir Ahmad, brother of Mirza Mahmud Ahmad, wrote an article
in the Review of Religions for June 1914, some three months
after the Split, in which he clearly classed Hazrat Mirza Ghulam
Ahmad as one of the mujaddids of Islam. This 3-page article
is entitled The True Religion, and appears on pages 233 to
235. Discussing the topic of reformation in religion, after dealing
with reform movements in Christianity he writes about Islam in the
final paragraph. Shown below is an image of the last page of his
article.
The statement that God promised to the Holy Prophet Muhammad that
He would raise a reformer among the Muslims every hundred
years clearly refers to the Holy Prophets hadith about
the coming of mujaddids. It is also stated here that we
have been promised similar tides of revival in future.
