In 1891, a Christian by the name of 'Abdullah James made three objections against Islam. He argued that the Holy Prophet (sa) had been in doubt about his own Prophethood, that he did not show any miracles, and that he did not possess any knowledge of the unseen. Anjuman Himayat-e-Islam sent these questions to three eminent Muslim scholars, including Hadrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, the Promised Messiah and Mahdi as , for their answers. This book is a translation of the answers written by the Promised Messiah as . The translation was first done by Qadi Muhammad Aslam Sahib, of blessed memory, and was published in 1972. QUESTION - 1 According to Christian belief, Jesus' mission in this world was to show his love for mankind and to sacrifice his life for their sake. Can the mission of the Founder of Islam be said to possess both these qualities, or can it be described in better terms than 'love' and 'sacrifice'? QUESTION -2 If the aim of Islam is to guide mankind towards Tauhid, why in its early period did it wage Jihad against the Jews while their revealed books only teach the Unity of God; or why should it now be considered essential for the Jews and those who already believe in the Unity of God to become Muslims in order to attain salvation? QUESTION -3 Which verses of the Holy Quran specifically speak of man's love for God, or of God's love for man, using the very word 'love'? QUESTION -4 Jesus spoke of himself thus: 'Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest.' 'I am light.' 'I am the way, the truth, and the life.' Did the Founder of Islam ever speak of himself in these terms? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- An Overview of The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community: http://www.alislam.org/ http://www.mta.tv/ The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is a dynamic, fast growing international revival movement within Islam.

Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is the only Islamic organization to believe that the long-awaited Messiah has come in the person of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad(as) (1835-1908) of Qadian. Ahmad(as) claimed to be the metaphorical second coming of Jesus(as) of Nazareth and the divine guide, whose advent was foretold by the Prophet of Islam, Muhammad(sa).
