Yellow journalism of Geo TV and Amir Liaqat of Jahil Online

On 7th September 2008, “celebrating” the 1974’s decision of the Pakistan’s National Assembly, GEO TV’s controversial program Aalim Online which in true sense is in fact Jahil Online spreading ignorance in the name of Islam, presented a very disturbing program about Khatme Nabuwwat in which the guest mullas promoted killing of Ahmadi Muslims. This obviously resulted in a protest from the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. Recently Geo TV has issued a response and called this “baseless” accusation.

I watched the program from start to end and although Aamir Liaqat did not give the fatwa (his guest did) but the way the whole program was “designed” by Amir it was indeed very provocative, highly insulting, full of lies, one-sided propaganda, that in no way comes near the Geo TV’s slogan “geo or jeno do”. In fact the sole purpose of the program was to insult and spread hatred through false propaganda against the already marginalized Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in Pakistan. Whether certain Ahmadis received death threats or not the fact remains that this program promoted killing of Ahmadis and Geo TV did nothing to present any response from Ahmadiyya Jama’at. How can this be a “baseless” accusation is beyond comprehension.

If they have the slightest love for humanity they should give equal time to Ahmadis to present their views. They claim in their press release that they allow other minority groups to speak. Well actions speak louder than words. When was the last time they presented any news or report or view from the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community? To put salt on the wounds they have in fact lowered themselves to such a pathetic state that they allowed this program to even be planned for 7th September, a dark day in the history of Pakistan. Would they now allow Brelvis to justify the Fatwas of Kuffar against Deobandis? And vice versa?

Unbelievable.

Khatamul Aulad and Khatam-ul-Khulafa – objection on Mirza sahib’s writings

In the anti Qadiani (Ahmadiyya) propaganda when you present them the true meaning of Khatamun Nabiyeen (The Seal of the Prophets) and prove that Ahmadiyya understanding is right according to Holy Quran, Hadith, Islamic literature and usage of the Arabic, they start to deceive innocent Muslims by finding excuses that Mirza sahib used the word Khatam in different meaning. The reply to this objection and the explanation of the subject matter is in Ahmadiyya Pocket Book page # 294 (pdf). I wish the anti Ahmadiyya mullahs stop deceiving now and let the truth be known.

A Persistent Liar – Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti of Khatam-e-Nabuwwat

MAULVI MANZOOR CHINIOTI
A Persistent LIAR

20 Questions for him to answer (or his son or the leaders of Khatme Nabuwwat)


INTRODUCTION

Maulvi Manzoor Ahmad Chinioti was a resident of Chiniot City, situated a few miles from Rabwah, the headquarters of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in Pakistan. He [at the time of writing years ago] was a member of the Punjab Provincial Assembly and a leading figure within the Khatm-e-Nubuwwat Organisation – an anti Ahmadiyya group.

Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti was vehemently vocal and vociferous in his attitude towards the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community and often issued false and inciting statements about the Ahmadis to gain cheap popularity amongst the ignorant masses. However because of his nefarious activities he was shunned by the public at large. Even those who were close to him exposed his lies and evil designs from time to time and warne the public of his anti Islamic activities. They regarded him as a corrupt mullah who would sell his faith for anything.

On Friday, the 10th June 1988 The Head of the World wide Ahmadiyya Muslim Community issued an open invitation to Mubahala challenge to all the leaders who were playing a prominent role in the rejection of the claims of Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian, the founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community and insist that he was an impostor. It was addressed to those leaders who were inciting hostility against the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community with totally false and fabricated allegations.

Many maulvis including Manzoonor Chinioti announced that they were willing to take up the challenge provided the Ahmadiyya leader agreed to meet them at places designated by them. All sorts of places throughout the world were mentioned in their statements for Mubahala meetings.

It was explained to them that the term `Mubahala’ means taking the dispute to the court of Allah by invoking the curse of God on the party which, in the sight of Good, wilfully distorts the truth and indulges in falsehood and lies. It is up to opponents to accept the challenge honestly or refuse to accept it. If those who accept the challenge are in the wrong, the wrath of God falls on them as a clear sign of their lies, so that the people can easily distinguish between truth and falsehood. They were told that there was nothing in the Holy Quran which suggests that parties should meet at a particular place but they were adamant that parties must meet at one place.

The Holy Quran says:

فَمَنْ حَآجَّكَ فِيهِ مِن بَعْدِ مَا جَاءكَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ فَقُلْ تَعَالَوْاْ نَدْعُ أَبْنَاءنَا وَأَبْنَاءكُمْ وَنِسَاءنَا وَنِسَاءكُمْ وَأَنفُسَنَا وأَنفُسَكُمْ ثُمَّ نَبْتَهِلْ فَنَجْعَل لَّعْنَةَ اللّهِ عَلَى الْكَاذِبِينَ

We take up the case of maulvi Manzoor Chinioti. He tried to evade the Mubahala challenge by stipulating that the Supreme Head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community should come to a place near Rabwah on the River Chanab for the Spiritual Contest. Later on, when he visited England he suggested Hyde Park as a meeting place. Whether Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti is a victor of Mubahala as he claims for himself and has earned the favours of Allah or has become the victim of Mubahala and has been the recipient of Allah’s wrath and curse because of his persistent lies is left to the reader to decide.

MAULVI MANZOOR CHINIOTI IN THE EYES OF THE PEOPLE

Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti sows the seeds of Hatred

Maulana Allah Yar Arshad, a leading member of the Khatme Nubuwwat Organisation, while addressing a meeting at Chiniot said:

“Maulvi Manzoor Ahmad Ghaghi Chinioti has labelled himself as a `Khatm-e-Nubuwwat Preacher’ in order to collect money from the people for himself……… He issues `fatwas’ against some Muslims and calls them ‘Non Muslims’ and thus sows the seeds of contempt and hatred against some Islamic scholars.” (Daily Hayder Rawalpindi November 11, 1988) & (Daily Imroze November 12, 1988)

MAULVI MANZOOR CHINIOTI IS PLAYING A NEGATIVE ROLE IN THE ASSEMBLY:

The Chief Administrator of Majlis Dawat-e-Islamiyyah Punjab Province accused Maulvi Manzoor Ahmad Chinioti of playing a negative role in the Assembly, thus putting the residents of Chiniot City to shame. (Daily Imroze June 13, 1988)

MAULVI MANZOOR CHINIOTI’S MEMBERSHIP BE CANCELLED

Allama Syed Mohsin Naqvi said that Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti is always ready to spread religious hatred throughout the area. He demanded that because of his unsuitable conduct in the Assembly the membership of Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti be cancelled. (Daily Musawat Lahore December 23 , 1988)

TO TELL LIES IS HIS MISSION: TO DECIEVE IS HIS PROFESSION

Maulana Allah Yar Arshad addressing a meeting in Chiniot said: __” Maulana Manzoor Ahmad Chinioti has obtained votes from the people by selling the name of `Khatm-e-Nubuwwat’. He said that this person deceives people in the name of religion. To tell lies is his mission and to deceive is his profession. He had obtained money from the people in the name of `Khatm-e-Nubuwwat’ and built his own estates”. (Daily MILLAT LONDON November 8, 1988 also Daily Musawaat, Lahore November 4, 1988)

MAULVI MANZOOR CHINIOTI IS A HYPOCRITE:

“The President of the Peace Committee Lahore, Mr Abdus Salaam Khan and a former Councillor Mr Bashir Ahmad, along with a social leader Muhammad Riaz, in a joint statement, condemned the recent statements of Maulvi Manzoor Ahmad Chinioti as ridiculous and inflammatory. They said that Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti is a hypocrite.” (Daily Musawat March 12, 1989)

MAULVI CHINIOTI – AN UNDESIRABLE PERSON:

The citizens of Chiniot City passed a resolution in which they demanded that Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti should be declared as an undesirable person. (Daily Imroze July 7, 1989)

MAULVI MANZOOR CHINIOTI IS SPREADING EVIL AND KUFR IN THE NAME OF ISLAM. HE IS A TERRORIST AND AN ENEMY OF ISLAM AND PAKISTAN: THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD HANG SUCH MAULVIS:

Mr Muhammad Hussain Shakir, Secretary Information Pakistan Peoples Party of Mandi Bahauddin Town said in a statement: “Maulvi Manzoor Ahmad Chinioti is spreading evil and kufr in the name of Islam and `Khatm-e-Nubuwwat’. The Government should hang such maulvis publicly who utter rude remarks about `Ahle Bait’ and the Companions of the Holy Prophet. He said that Maulvi Manzoor Ahmad Chinioti has used such a filthy language against Hadhrat Ali and Hadhrat Imam Hussain in a meeting held at Garh Maharaja, District Jhang, that even Yazeed could not have used such a foul language for them. He is a terrorist and a hypocrite like Abdullah bin Ubayyee and has no link with Islam. He said that the members of the Provincial as well as National Assemblies and Senators should expose Maulvi Manzoor Ahmad Chinioti in their respective Houses and tell them that such maulvis are the enemies of Islam and Pakistan.” (Daily Musawaat December 14, 1989)

MANZOOR CHINIOTI’S TONGUE SHOULD BE CUT OFF

Allama Syed Muhammad Taqi Naqvi, president Tahreek-e-Nifaz Fiqa Jaffria -Punjab, said that Manzoor Chinioti is spreading religious hatred . He said that Chinioti’s tongue should be cut off for using insulting language against Hadhrat Ali and Hadhrat Imam Hussain. (Daily Musawaat Lahore December 9, 1989)

MAULVI MANZOOR CHINIOTI AND THE MUBAHALA CHALLENGE

Messengers and reformers appointed by God guide mankind to the path of peace and obedience to Allah. They spread their message through kind words and gentle persuasion. History shows us that these men from God are always opposed and maligned with false accusations. When such charges exceed the limits of all toleration, and the lies and the deceits of the opponents prevent people from accepting the truth, a religious remedy is provided by Allah in the Holy Quran which is called `Mubahala’. This is to bring about a clear and manifest distinction between truth and falsehood. Mubahala is that stage when a Prophet of God is out-rightly rejected, when no further room is left for meaningful dialogue and arguments, then both parties (those who reject him and those who believe in him) invoke the curse of Allah on the wilful liars.

When the Founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian, India, the Promised Messiah and Mahdi appeared in the world, according to the prophecies to rejuvenate Islam, many of the religious leaders of his time opposed him and launched a filthy campaign of wilful lies against him to misguide the people. The Promised Messiah reasoned with his opponents but when reasoning yielded no results, he had no choice but to invite them to Mubahala and to take this long drawn dispute to the Court of Allah, the Almighty, the All knowing, All Powerful. In the same tradition, the Fourth Caliph of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, Hadhrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad issued a challenge of Mubahala on 10th June 1988, to `all leaders who play a prominent role in the rejection of the claims of the founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community and who insist that he was an impostor.’

He said:

“in my capacity as the imam of the Jamaat Ahmadiyya , I do hereby invite all such persons who, having read the statements in the Mubahala pamphlet , still persist in their antagonistic attitude and do not refrain from spreading lies against Jamaat Ahmadiyya, to accept the challenge of this Mubahala. ”

One such leader who responded to the challenge is a shameless, obstinate and foul mouthed maulvi known as Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti who is in the habit of issuing Mubahala challenges to the Ahmadiyya leader from time to time in order to gain cheap popularity, but the world had witnessed that each time he was met with torrents of humiliation and ignominy.

Let us list some of the events here and ask Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti whether he can be given any other name apart from a persistent liar i.e. `kazzaab’.

in the Daily Imroze dated 21st June 1988, (exactly eleven days after the issuance of Mubahala Challenge by Hadhrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad, the Head of the World wide Ahmadiyya Muslim Community), the following statement was published:

“The Former member of the Punjab Assembly Maulana Manzoor Ahmad Chinioti, after accepting the Mubahala Challenge issued by Mirza Tahir Ahmad, the Leader of the Qadiani Community, stated that he had sent an invitation of Mubahala to the father, grandfather and brother of Mirza Tahir Ahmad but they did not come out to contest him. Hell was their abode. Mirza Tahir Ahmad is a liar as were his father, brother and grandfather”. (Daily Imroze June 21, 1988)

He made a similar statement in the Daily Nawa-i-Waqt Lahore dated October 16, 1988.

These were indeed wild boastful statements. Maulvi Chinioti claimed that he sent a Mubahala challenge to the Founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community who incidentally passed away in May 1908, presumably long before the birth of Maulvi Chinioti.

We ask Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti

Question 1.

You claimed that you invited the grandfather of Mirza Tahir Ahmad to Mubahala. Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, the Founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community who was the grandfather of Hadhrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad, died in 1908. Look at your birth certificate and then tell the world how could you issue a Mubahala Challenge when you were not yet born?

Does it not prove that you lied and your lie was exposed soon after you accepted the Mubahala challenge issued by the leader of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community?

Maulvi Chinioti and The Disappearance of Aslam Qureshi

In the Mubahala pamphlet, the Imam of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community listed some of the accusations made by the opponents against the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, its founder Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad and against himself. He mentioned the true Ahmadiyya beliefs and then pronounced : “May Allah’s curse be on the liars”.

He asked the opponents to take up any of these alleged statements, which Ahmadis regard as false accusations, declare them on oath that such statements do represent Ahmadiyya beliefs and then pronounce, “Curse of Allah be upon the liars”.

Special mention was made of the accusation that Hadhrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad was involved in the abduction and assassination of a certain Pakistani mullah by the name of Aslam Qureshi, who disappeared suddenly from Sialkot, Pakistan in 1984.

After his disappearance the mullahs of Pakistan, especially those belonging to Majlis Tahaffuz-e- Khatm -e- Nubuwwat, started a vicious campaign against the members of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community and its Head, inciting masses to violence against the community. This resulted in the death of many Ahmadis, widespread looting and arson of properties belonging to Ahmadis. Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti was in the forefront of this campaign and accused the Head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, Hadhrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad, of the abduction and assassination of Aslam Qureshi. He issued the following statement to the press:

“Mirza Tahir Ahmad should be included in the investigation with regard to the disappearance of Mujahid-i-Islam Maulana Aslam Qureshi. He said that we have given six names to the government of Pakistan in this regard, and Mirza Tahir Ahmad is one of them. If the accused is not found within these six, I am ready to be shot in public.” (Daily Nawa-i-Waqt Lahore February 18, 1984)

According to the Pakistan Times Lahore dated October 1, 1985 Maulana Manzoor Ahmad Chinioti stated:

“The Government ought to get Mirza Tahir back in Pakistan to face the charge of murdering Maulana Aslam Qureshi.”

It so happened that five years after his disappearance Maulana Aslam Qureshi was apprehended by the Pakistan Police on the Pakistan-Iran border attempting to enter Pakistan. He made a statement to the police and the press which appeared in most of the Pakistani newspapers on July 13, 1988 that he had gone to Iran of his own accord because of his poor financial condition, that no one had abducted him and that he had been there for the last five years.

Had Maulana Manzoor Chinioti been a man of honour he would have shot himself in public, in accordance with his promise. If he had an iota of human decency he would have offered a public apology to Ahmadis and their leader, Hadhrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad. He was absolutely dumbfounded, even today cannot wipe away the stigma of his shameless lie.

Even during a session of the Punjab Provincial Assembly, when asked by a member of the Assembly to account for this false accusation which he made against the Ahmadiyya Community and its leader the wicked Maulvi offered no response. God had made him speechless in his disgrace.

We ask Maulana Manzoor Chinioti

Question 2.

Was it not a lie when you said that Mirza Tahir Ahmad had abducted and assassinated Mr. Aslam Qureshi?

Question 3.

Did you not say in public:

“We have given six names to the Government including the name of Mirza Tahir Ahmad and if the culprit is not found within those six, I am ready to be shot in public?” Wasn’t it a lie?

If you were a person of respect and dignity, you would have died of shame and would have requested the Government to shoot you in public. Why didn’t you make such a request in order to keep your word?

MAULVI MANZOOR CHINIOTI – MORE LIES EXPOSED

Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti is such that he will do anything and say anything in order to gain cheap popularity amongst the ignorant masses. He made another reply to the Mubahala Challenge of Hadhrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad and issued the following statement to the press:

“I accept the Mubahala Challenge (of the Head of the Ahmadiyya Community) and predict that I would be alive a year from today i.e. 15th September 1989, but the Qadiani community would disappear from the face of the earth. (Daily Jang Lahore, October 17, 1988)

In reply to his boasts the Imam of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community replied:

“We will see, by next September, God willing, Ahmadiyyat will not only be alive but will be prospering in every way, and if Maulvi Chinioti happens to be alive, he will not find a single country where Ahmadiyyat has vanished”. (Friday Sermon November 15, 1988)

Realising his folly Maulvi Chinioti retracted from his original claim and gave the following statement to the press:

“I did not say that the whole of the Qadiani Community will die by the fifteenth September 1989. What I did say was that Mirza Tahir Ahmad would die by that date.” (Daily Jang Lahore January 30, 1989)

We ask Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti the following questions:

Question 4.

Did you not say that the Qadiani Community would disappear from the face of the earth by September 15, 1989? Wasn’t it a lie?

Question 5.

When newspaper reporters began chasing you for confirmation in January 1989, (four months after the original statement), you realised your mistake and refuted your claim and explained that you predicted the death of Hadhrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad only and not the death of the whole community.

Were you not proven wrong again as the world is witness to the fact that he, by the grace of Allah, is alive and well and continues to perform his duties as the Head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community and under his command Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is progressing by leaps and bounds in every corner of the world?

Question 6.

When you failed to obtain cheap popularity in the Pakistani press, you issued the following statement to a newspaper in London:

“The sun has set on the Ahmadiyya Community as it had indeed set on the British Empire. Ahmadiyyat has been wiped off from each country of the world. Indeed it is on its last throes.” (Daily Millat, London August 19, 1989)

They say that a liar has no legs to stand upon. To cover one lie he tells another lie.

Maulvi Chinioti ! The same thing happened to you. In October 1988 you said that the Qadiani Community would disappear from the face of the earth.

On January 30, 1989 you stated that Mirza Tahir Ahmad and not the Qadiani Community would die before September 1989.

And nearing the date when your lies were to be exposed to the world, you issued a statement in total desperation that Ahmadiyyat has vanished from each country of the world.

When the whole world is a witness to the fact that hundreds of thousand people of different races and nationalities are joining the fold of Islam each year through Ahmadiyyat, how can you issue such a statement that Ahmadiyyat has vanished from every country of the world?

Can you point out a single country from where it has vanished ?

Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti and Bahawalpur Plane Crash Incident

The most prominent person addressed in this Mubahala challenge was General Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq, the then President of Pakistan. Repeated warnings were issued by the Head of the world wide Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, Hadhrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad to General Zia that he should abstain from atrocities committed against the peaceful Ahmadiyya Muslim Community but to no avail. General Zia was flying high in his political career and would not heed any such advice. Finally the Head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community addressed him in his Friday Sermon dated July 30, 1988 & August 5,1988. He said that whether or not General Zia formally accepts the Mubahala challenge, he is a party to it unless he desists from persecuting Ahmadis in Pakistan.

On Friday the August 12, 1988, in his Sermon, Hadhrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad addressed General Zia once again . He announced that as General Zia’s Government had not relented in their wave of persecution and had transgressed to the extremes, his fate was now sealed.

Within the next week on August 17, 1988, the court of God Almighty handed down its sentence. General Zia’s plane had just taken off from Bahawalpur airport when it plummeted into nearby fields, burst into flames, killing everyone on board including high ranking military officers and the American Ambassador Arnold Raphel. Eye witnesses described that the plane was blown into pieces and there were bodies and limbs spread over an area of two acres.

Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti was quick to blame the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community and its leader Hadhrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad. It was reported in the press:

“Qadiani military officers brought down General Zia’s plane in order to claim success in the Mubahala challenge ———- claims Maulana Manzoor Chinioti.

A distinguished religious scholar as well as a leader of Jamiat-ul-ulama Darkhaasti Group, Maulana Manzoor Ahmad Chinioti said that the Qadianis were responsible for bringing down General Zia’s aircraft in order to claim success in their Mubahala challenge. According to a report published in the Daily Imroze of The Press Trust, Maulana Manzoor Chinioti said that the leader of the Ahmadiyya Community, had mentioned the name of General Zia, while issuing the Mubahala challenge from the Ahmadiyya mosque in London.

Maulvi Chinioti claimed that in order to make the challenge a success, the Qadiani Officers, serving in the army and in other Government Departments, conspired against General Zia and killed him along with his colleagues.

Maulana Manzoor Chinioti appealed to Ghulam Ishaq Khan, the then President of Pakistan, to extend the investigation of this tragedy to include Qadiani officers in the army as well as in Government departments so that the real happenings are brought to light.” (Daily Millat, London September 1, 1988)

And in another paper the following account was published:

“QADIANI JAMAAT IS INVOLVED IN BAHAWALPUR INCIDENT ——— Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti”.

“A leader of the International Khatm-e-Nubuwwat, Maulana Manzoor Ahmad Chinioti, in a letter to Ghulam Ishaq the President of Pakistan, demanded that the Qadiani Organisation should also be included in the investigation of the Bahawalpur incident case, as a possible suspect.

Giving out the details of his letter which he wrote to the President of Pakistan, in a press conference, he said, `In my opinion there are many solid proofs that Qadiani sect was involved in this tragic incident. These solid proofs make the majority of the members of this sect as suspects’. He said, `In this connection I would draw your attention to the so-called Mubahala challenge issued by Mirza Tahir Ahmad on June 10, 1988 in which Mirza Tahir made a so-called prophecy that the chief of those who reject Qadianiyyat and those leaders who oppose it, will meet their terrible end. This has to be noted that Zia-ul- Haq was condemned by name in this meeting’.” (Daily Jasarat Karachi September 10, 1988)

Various inquiry committees were set up by the government of Pakistan and the government of USA. None of them pointed its finger to the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community or its Head. The inquiry committee working under the chairmanship of Justice Shafi-ur-Rahman, in its report, said that there is no proof of Qadianis involvement in Zia-ul-Haq’s plane disaster. (Daily Pakistan dated August 13, 1995.)

The latest US report says:

“ZIA Plane Crashed due to Technical Fault: US Report:

London: The Research Cell of the US Air force in its report, has concluded that the catastrophic crash of C-130 in 1988, killing President General Zia-ul-Haq, US Ambassador Raphel and about 30 other senior army officers, was the result of some technical fault and no evidence of any sabotage has been found. All the engines of the ill-fated aircraft stopped running suddenly and the black box failed to record the reason, the report said.” (Daily News International London July 9, 1997)

In the light of these findings, we ask Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti:

Question 7.

Were you not wrong to accuse Ahmadi military officers for bringing down Zia’s plane?

Question 8.

The Inquiry Committee working under Justice Shafi-ur-Rehman specifically stated that the Ahmadiyya Community was not involved in the plane disaster. Were you not ashamed of your false accusation?

Why did you not produce `solid proofs’ of the involvement of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, which you claimed that you have in your statement published in the Daily Jasarat on September 10, 1988, before the inquiry committee?

Question 9.

The U.S report about the incident ruled out any sabotage. How can you still maintain that the Ahmadiyya Community and its leader were responsible for the plane crash?

MAULVI MANZOOR CHINIOTI AND THE PUNJAB ASSEMBLY

Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti [at the time of this writing] is a member of the Punjab Assembly. He regards his election as a member of the Assembly as a success in the Mubahala challenge.

He states,

“Inspite of Qadiani efforts (to defeat me) I was successful twice with large majority (in the Punjab elections)”. (Daily Jang Lahore September 17, 1989)

And in an other newspaper he made the following statement. “Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti said that within a year (after the Mubahala challenge), God has blessed me and I was successful in the elections with heavy majority. (Daily Nawa-l-Waqt September 17, 1989)

And in a newspaper which is published from London he stated:

“In spite of the imprecation of the leader of the Ahmadiyya Community, I had gained respect and honour as I was elected a member of the Assembly. (Daily Millat London August 25, 1989 )

Now let us see what his close friends within the Khatm-e-Nubuwwat Organisation and other members of the Punjab Assembly say about his election campaign and his conduct in the Assembly.

According to Daily Hayder Rawalpindi of November 1, 1988 the Khateeb of Ahrar Mosque, Maulana Allah Yaar Arshad and Qari Muhammad Yameen Gohar, a candidate for Provincial Assembly, while addressing an election meeting in Chiniot said that Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti obtained votes from the people in the name of Khatm-e-Nubuwwat and has then shown such a despicable behaviour in the Assembly that has put the whole of Muslim Ummah to shame. They said that this person deceives people in the name of religion.

Allama Mohsin Naqvi demanded that because of the misconduct in the Punjab Assembly Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti’s name should be struck off from the membership of the Assembly. (Daily Musawaat December 23, 1988)

The Chief Administrator Majlis Dawat-e-Islamiyyah Punjab accused Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti of playing a negative role in the Assembly and has thus put the residents of Chiniot city shame. (Daily Imroze June 13, 1985)

We ask Maulvi Manzoor Chinioth

Question 10.

In the light of the above remarks do you still regard the success in the Assembly elections as a blessing from Allah ?

Is it not the fact that people charged you with such gross misconduct in the Assembly that has put the entire Ummah to shame?

Question 11.

In a press conference conducted by you on May 27, 1986 you accused the Speaker of the Punjab Provincial assembly, Mr. Manzoor Wattoo as pro-Qadiani. The whole house, in its session on May 28, 1986, protested and demanded an apology from you which you did offer.

Were you not deeply embarrassed and utterly ashamed by your lies in the Assembly?

Question 12.

In the same press conference you stated that the Speaker of the Assembly treats the members of the Assembly badly. The whole House, in its session on May 28 1986, protested strongly at your accusation. The members called you a liar and not only demanded an apology but suggested some sort of punishment for you. In reply you offered an apology. Were you not humiliated before the whole House?

Question 13.

In one of the sessions you were declared as an edict seller and a black mailer, a mullah who declares some person ` Non Muslim’, acquires money and then declares the same person as ` Muslim’. No other member of the Assembly was humiliated. as you were. Were you not ashamed by such an insult?

Question 14.

Some Assembly members, because of your improper conduct in the House, commented that your marriage had become void and your children will therefore become illegitimate. Was it not another example of your insult in the House?

Question 15.

Maulana Ghias-ud-din, a member of the Punjab Assembly quoted a Saying of the Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, that a person who declare a Muslim `a Kafir’, he himself becomes a ‘Kafir’. Since you committed that act, you were adjudged a ‘Kafir’.? Do you not regard it as an insult?

Question 16.

Because of your non-parliamentary behaviour and vulgar and abusive language many of the members of the House demanded that you should be punished and expelled from the House. In return you offered an apology to the whole House. Does it not prove that you were regarded as a nuisance by the other Assembly members?

Question 17.

In February 1989 during the Punjab Assembly proceedings, a member of the Assembly, Mr. Salman Taseer, described you in the same category as the enemy of Islam, Salman Rushdie. Were you not deeply insulted by this remark?

Question 18.

Another member of the Punjab Assembly Mr Muhammad Aslam Gurdaspuri said that by presenting the motion before the House, your only purpose was to create mischief, an act which is prohibited by the Holy Quran. He labelled you as a mischief monger. Do these remarks not bother you at all? Are not these remarks disgraceful?

Question 19.

Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti! You are notorious for making outrageous, rude and vulgar remarks in the Assembly especially against female members of the House. For example, on December 20, 1988, the Opposition staged a walk- out and forced you to apologise three times for making indecent, immoral and vulgar remarks about the Pakistan Peoples Party’s Chairperson Begum Nusrat Bhutto. Is it not a shameful act for someone such as yourself who claim to be a religious leader to behave in a way that lowers the dignity of the House?

Question 20.

According to the Daily Jang Lahore dated May 29, 1986 you said in a Punjab Assembly Session “Allah’s curse be upon the liars”.

And in the Daily Jang of December 20, 1988 you quoted a Saying of the Holy Prophet of Islam, may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, “Whoever tells a lie deliberately , his. abode is hell.” Again in the Daily Jang Lahore of December 21, 1988 you stated,” I pray to God that God’s curse falls on him who lies”.

We have proved above beyond any reasonable doubt whatsoever that you are a persistent liar or `Kazzab’. Will you still not admit that Allah’s curse has fallen on you And you are a victim of the Mubahala?

The fact is that after accepting the Mubahala challenge issued by the Imam of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community to all leaders of the opponents, who incite hostility against the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community with totally false and fabricated allegations, Maulvi Manzoor Chinioti, like others, witnessed the tremendous progress of Ahmadiyyat and Allah’s numerous blessings on the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, on one hand and experienced the frustration of his own plans, the utter humiliation and disgrace among the people, on the other. In our view, not only Allah’s wrath befell upon him on each occasion, but also the curse of the people which faced him at every step.

Allah says in the Holy Quran:

أُوْلَـئِكَ جَزَآؤُهُمْ أَنَّ عَلَيْهِمْ لَعْنَةَ اللّهِ وَالْمَلآئِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ

May God save the Ummah from the wickedness and abomination of such evil minded maulvis.

Ameen!

Non-Ahmadi Islam – is this better Islam?

While doing discussion on important topics where I presented verses of the Holy Quran and Traditions of the Holy Prophet (saw) to prove a point, finding it difficult to answer those non-Ahmadis usually end up with abuses. This has been the history since the arrival of the Promised Messiah and Imam Mahdi (as). Since the other party was not willing to do a meaningful dialogue, I had to show them mirror. This is a sample of their Islamic beliefs (references provided).

Shirk is Islam: Hazrat Ali is God (Tazakaratul Aimma, pg 9). Hazrat Ali is son of God (Nau Ratan, pg. 36). The dead are parties with God in superhuman deeds. (Ahmad Raza Barelvi, Ahkaam al Shariah, vol. 2, pg 155)

Blasphemy of Allah (swt) is Islam: ‘It is not necessary that the power of God should be more than that of a human being’ (Ashiq Ali Merathi, Tazkirah al Khalil). ‘do not believe that God is incapable of lying’ (Maulvi Muhammad Ismael, Yak Rozi, pg. 45)

Degrading Angels is Islam: ‘falling in love with women, consuming alcohol, committing homicide and adultery’. (Hasan, Maulvi Ahmad, Tafseer Ahsan al Tafaseer, vol VI, pg 108/109)

Desecrating Quran is Islam: ‘permissible to write the Surah Fatihah with blood and urine’. (Rudd al Mohtala Rad al Mukhtar Shami)

Blasphemy of Prophets is Islam: about Hazrat Daud ‘became infatuated with a woman he saw naked in her garden and he sent her husband to battle to get killed and thus he married her’. (Tafseer Jami al Bayan)

Corruption in Holy Quran is Islam: about Surah Walaayah ‘Shi’ite Quran (which they secretly confide to one another, while hiding it from the general public as an act of taqiyyah)’ (Khateeb, Muhibbudeen al: Al Khutoot al ‘Areedah, pg 15)

Lying is allowed in Islam: reference will be provided upon request.

May Allah (swt) save us from such Islam!

Parables in Holy Quran which is a guidance for the righteous

A friend says that “Deen (religion) is simple. There is no need for explanations. Isa bin Maryam is mentioned in the Hadith so this must be Isa bin Maryam.” Although he completely ignored the verses of the Holy Quran that declare Jesus son of Mary lived and died like all other human beings and prophets. He also forgot to answer how he can apply the name Ahmad to Holy Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) when his name is not Ahmad. He briefly mentioned that since there is no other prophet named Ahmad so this must be applied to Muhammad (pbuh) (although we cannot be sure about this since there were over 124,000 prophets and no one has the list of their names). In any case that argument is based on “explanation” and your own criteria fails here, so please no double standards. For us, it is no problem because our beliefs are soundly rooted on Holy Quran with rationality.

Now the next topic is “religion is simple, there is no need for explanations and Isa’s name cannot be applied to anyone else”. Holy Quran says:

“This is a perfect Book; there is no doubt in it; it is a guidance for the righteous” (2:2/3)

Why it is guidance for the righteous only if deen is so simple? It should be guidance for everyone. In another verse Allah says about Holy Quran:

“Which none shall touch except those who are purified.” (56:79/80)

Can you answer how non-believers and impure people can’t touch this book in the presence of this verse if you take everything literally? You have to take its meaning not literally.

And how can you hold such view in presence of this verse of the Holy Quran when Allah (swt) has said Himself that some verses need interpretations?

He it is who has sent down to thee the Book; in it there are verses that are firm and decisive in meaning – they are the basis of the Book – and there are others that are susceptible of different interpretations.…(3:7/8)

More about this subject:

He sends down water from the sky so that the valleys flow according to their measure and the flood bears on its surface swelling foam. And from that which they heat in the fire, seeking to make ornaments or utensils, comes out a foam similar to it. Thus does Allah illustrate truth and falsehood. Now, as to the foam it goes away as rubbish and perishes but as to that which benefits men, it stays in the earth. Thus does Allah set forth parables. (13:17/18)

and

Allah is the light of the heavens and the earth. His light is as if there were a lustrous niche, wherein is a lamp. The lamp is inside a glass-globe. The globe is, as it were, a glittering star. The lamp is lit from the oil of a blessed tree -an olive – neither of the East nor of the West, whose oil well-nigh would shine forth even though fire touched it not. Light upon light! Allah guides to His light whomsoever He pleases. And Allah sets forth parables for men, and Allah knows all things full well. (24:35/36)

Can you show this lamp? Here is another one:

“And, indeed, We have set forth for mankind all manner of parables in this Qur’an that they may take heed.” (39:27/28)

Alas! So your argument is against the teachings of the Holy Quran.

As regards to the argument that this has not happened before, I already talked about Elijah the prophet. Where is Elijah? Jews are waiting for him to descend from the sky also. Why Jesus said that John the Baptist is Elijah and failed to present the actual Elijah the prophet with exact name as you argue?

The friend also asked me to visit anti-Ahmadiyya website. I think this was a joke because Islam is based on Holy Quran and Hadith, not on any Anti website. How can the opponents of the Imam Mahdi/Promised Messiah guide someone to truth?

Please note that I get guidance from Holy Quran and Holy Prophet (saw) and not from anti-ahmadiyya mullahs. In any case, the anti-Ahmadiyya false propaganda has been answered since ages. Please go through this website impartially.

Keep in mind that Issa bin Maryam died like all other human beings and prophets (16 verses of the Holy Quran have been quoted). There is not a single sahih Hadith where Holy Prophet (saw) said that Issa bin Maryam will be same old Issa that went up to the skies. Not a single sahih Hadith! In fact in Ahadith two entirely different physical descriptions have been provided for old Isa bin Maryam and the one that was to come in the Ummah. Why different physical complexions? Of course because they are two different persons.

In the light of above all it becomes crystal clear that Issa bin Maryam mentioned in the Ahadith is not the same old who was born fatherless. And if you do not agree, then in the words of the Holy Quran: Bring forward your proof if you are truthful (27:64/65).

Who believes in Khatam-e-Nabuwwat? The reality of Khatm-e-Nabuwwat

Someone emailed me that Ahmadis do not believe in Khatam-e-Nabuwwat and by that they do blasphemy. The fact is that non-Ahmadis do not believe in Khatam-e-Nabuwwat and their beliefs and actions both are against the teachings of the Holy Prophet (saw). So let the truth be told here. Here was my response:

Why then you await the second coming of Isa bin Maryam (Jesus Christ) as Prophet of Allah? Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw) himself prophesied that a prophet will come in his ummah (Sahih Muslim). Why then you reject Holy Prophet Muhammad’s (saw) sayings?

The fact is that you do not believe him to be Khataman Nabiyeen. You only believe him to be second last prophet, as you still believe Isa bin Maryam will come as the last prophet on this world. Your definition of last is based on chronological order. Which prophet do you believe the world will see last? Isa bin Maryam is your belief. So why do you make such a hue and cry about Khatam-e-Nabuwwat when in fact you do not actually believe him to be the last prophet?

Holy Quran has declared that Isa bin Maryam died like all other prophets. Why do you believe him to be alive and reject Holy Quran?

The fact is that you are against both Holy Quran and Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw). May Allah guide you to the true teachings of Holy Quran and Holy Prophet Muhammad (saw) who was Khataman Nabiyeen. Only Jama’at that believes him to be Khataman Nabiyeen in true sense is Jama’at Ahmadiyya. That is why non-Ahmadis will never discuss both topics of Jesus’s life and Khatam-e-Nabuwwat in the light of Holy Quran and Hadith. It is an open challenge. That is the reason for putting ban on Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama’at in countries like Pakistan and elsewhere.
