The study of the holy Quran reveals the fact that whenever darkness prevails over the humanity and the nations decline ethically and morally, Allah raises a prophet amongst them who guides them from darkness to the light.
"He it is Who sends down clear signs to His servant, that He may bring you out of every kind of darkness into light. And, verily, Allah is Compassionate and Merciful to you." (Hadeed 57:10)
Our Muslim brothers and sisters agree with us in principle that presently the Muslim Ummah is at the declining stage facing regression and domination by non-Muslim powers. But, ironically, they don’t agree that Allah shall raise any prophet to redress this situation. They claim that having a matchless book like the Quran, they don’t need any prophet or reformer whatsoever.
This stance is apparently, against the teachings of the Quran, which emphatically link the teaching with the teacher and declares that only a teacher with the help of the teachings of the Book can lead humanity to light from the darkness. It is the habit and nature of disbelievers that they deny the need of a divine teacher. In Sura Bani-Israel, verse-92, Allah has quoted the disbelievers demanding the holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him) to ascend to heavens and bring back a book, which they shall read themselves; whereas Allah has mentioned the duty of the prophet to “teach them the book and the wisdom”.
Walking on the footsteps of earlier disbelievers, the modern day opponents of divine mission of Ahmadiyyat claim that we do not need any divine teacher. We have a perfect book, which can lead us to guidance. But apparently, the holy Quran negates their claim.
In the light of our substantially proved claim that the Promised Messiah (Peace be upon him) being that teacher and the holy Quran being that book, it is our duty to present before them the true teachings of Quran and guide them from darkness to the light.
For that purpose, we present the following five questions and their replies from the holy Quran.
- Is prophet-hood and revelation continued as per Quran?
- If yes, do we need it in this age?
- Is there any information or disclosure in the Quran regarding the advent of any prophet in this age?
- What are the criteria of a true prophet?
- Does Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian fulfill those criteria?
