Part 5 of a Review of The Pakistani Government’s ‘White Paper’: Qadiyaniyyat – A grave threat to Islam

In 1984 the Islamic government of Pakistan set aside all Islamic injuctions and took upon itself the burden of depriving the Ahmadi Muslims of many basic human rights including religious social freedoms. In an attempt to justify this action, the government of Pakistan published a so-called White Paper under the title ‘Qadiyaniyyat – Islam kay liya Sangin Khatrah’ (Qadiyaniyyat – A Grave Threat to Islam).

Although there was nothing new in this so-called White Paper and the Jama’at literature already included detailed answers to all the issues which were raised, nevertheless Hazrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad, Khalifatul Masih IV, the then Imam of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama’at, answered these allegations in a series of Friday sermons. These sermons (in Urdu) were published by the London Mosque in 1985 and the English translation is now being published.

Hazrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad Khalifatul Masih IV^(rh) delivered this sermon on February 22, 1985 at the Fadl Mosque London and answered the allegations that questioned the role played by the Ahmadiyyah Muslim Jama’at in protecting the national security of Indian Muslims. In this context he gave a detailed discussion of the role played by the Ahmadiyyah Muslim Jama’at in protecting and promoting the interests of the Indian Muslims especially during the Khilafat Movement and the Shudhi Movement.
