Majlis Khuddamul Ahmadiyya Pledge

 Allah has promised to those among you who believe and do good works that He will surely make them Successors in the earth, as He made Successors from among those who were before them; and that He will surely establish for them their religion which He has chosen for them; and that He will surely give them in exchange security and peace after their fear: They will worship Me, and they will not associate anything with Me. Then who so is ungrateful after that, they will be the rebellious. [Surah Al-Nur, Verse 56]

"Prophethood shall remain among you as long as Allah shall will. He will bring about its end and follow it with Khilafat on the precepts of prophethood for as long as He shall will and then bring about its end. A tyrannical monarchy will then follow and will remain as long as Allah shall will and then come to an end. There will follow thereafter monarchial despotism to last as long as Allah shall will and come to an end upon His decree. There will then emerge Khilafat on precept of Prophethood." The Holy Prophet said no more (Masnad Ahmad)

You should therefore, neither grieve over what I have told you (that the hour of my demise is nigh) nor should you be heart-broken for it is mandatory that you see God's second manifestation. The coming of that manifestation is a lot better for you because it is eternal whose succession will not terminate till the end of days. When I go, Allah will send to you the second manifestation and it will stay with you forever. (Al-Wassiyat, pp. 6-7)

On 24 October 2014 Hazrat Khalīfatul-Masīh V(May Allāh be his Helper) delivered the Friday Sermon at Baitul Futuh Mosque, London UK 

Hudhur said: At this time I have selected some incidents to mention here today. These are incidents relating to Hazrat Khalifatul Masih II(ra) himself, or they are incidents relating to others but mentioned by him. These relate to different topics and I will relate a few today and I am mentioning these in the sermons because through the MTA, the Friday Sermon is listened to most widely by the worldwide Jama’at Ahmadiyya members and because these can be very helpful in understanding some situations.



After the passing away of the Promised Messiah(as) Hazrat Khalifa tul Masih I(ra) said to me that I should complete the reading of Book of Ahadith (Bukhari ) from him. In fact I had told him that the Promised Messiah(as) used to tell me to study the translation of the Holy Quran and Bukhari from him. In fact I had started the study of both these book from Hazrat Khalifa tul Masih I(ra) during the lifetime of the Promised Messiah(as) and although this went on and off I had also started studying the medicine from him during the lifetime of the Promised Messiah(as).



Then at another place he states with regard to the grand lofty position of the Holy Quran as follows. I remember an example of my childhood foolishness. When I was a young child, when the enemies of the Promised Messiah(as) would come, and level accusations against him, so because the Promised Messiah(as) would address them in a very simple and straightforward, easy to understand manner, I would sometimes think that perhaps he would not be able to combat the cleverness of such a person’s attack.



The Jama’at is opposed, the Prophets are opposed and such opposition becomes the means for progress and advancements. He writes that we heard an incident from the Promised Messiah(as) many a times. He used to say that the enemies who vilify us and abuse us and oppose us, we entertain the hope that the blessed souls from among them will come towards us, but when neither the people shout abuse at us nor oppose us and they become totally silent, then this becomes a source of pain for us.



Hazrat Khalifa tul Masih II(ra) says that in the time of the Promised Messiah(as), all the peoples of India had opposed him in the most intense manner possible but despite all those oppositions our movement progressed in India and also all over the world and jama’ats were established inside india and all over the world. So much so that today our missions are working all over the world. In England, America, China, Japan, Java, Sumatra, and in all the countries in Europe we have established our missions and the work of preaching is ongoing.

IMPORTANCE OF KHILAFAT Muslim Television Ahmadiyya, telecasts a very interesting program for our Arab brothers Muhtamim Sihat-e-Jismani which is called "Meeting With Arabs" - Liqa'a Ma'al Arab - in which Arabs seeked answers from Hazrat Khalifatul Masih IV. Following question was asked by an Arab brother.

Question: In this age, the world, especially the Muslim world direly needs the Institution of Khilafat. Whats is its importance?

Answer: The Muslims who should have been united and be in harmony, are divided in countless sects and divisions. It is not only in religious field but in politics too. When there is schism, they can achieve nothing in the world, which a united and harmonious people can do. By discord and disharmony the power of the Muslim world has not only disintegrated, but also they are using this broken strength against one another. When such are the conditions, the aggregate will be below zero.

The groups may be very powerful, but if they will oppose and counteract each other in minor and major issues and remain busy in fighting, their power will be scattered and strength broken.

This is happening in every Muslim country. Unfortunately it is being named as Jihad. What will they gain from all this? What resources will remain for their own nation building, defense of Islam or fighting the enemy? Therefore, it is incumbent that Muslims should unite on the hand of One Imam. There should be one Imam of the Muslims of the whole world. But without Khilafat, it is just impossible. Khilafat is the successor after the prophet in the form of a person who is representing the deceased prophet and Khalifa is the vicegerent and his subordinate. He is the central authority.

This is the basic principle of Khilafat.

Muslims do understand its need as well as importance. This need was felt after the sad demise of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) also. In Islam this is quite clear like broad daylight and is a part of Islamic teaching that without unity and harmony you cannot rightly work on the teachings of Islam. When you go to the mosque for Namaz five times a day, there must be an Imam. Standing behind an Imam is a demonstration of unity among people. That is why the Holy Quran especially emphasizes the need of congregational prayer. Imam is given so much importance that if the Imam falters, the entire congregation must follow his mistake even if they know that a mistake has been committed. What better instance can be presented for the need of an Imam and unity in his following? If Imam is mandatory in a small mosque, then how can the whole of Muslims Ummah survive without an Imam.

As far as the Ummah is concerned, there is commandment in the Holy Quran to turn their faces towards Qiblah. For the Muslims throughout the world, there is one and only one Qiblah. You may go anywhere in the world, the Qiblah remains the same. This is a pointer that it is incumbent for the Muslim Ummah that they should be united under one Imam. Had this not been the sole purpose, there would have been no Khilafat at all because the spiritual condition of Muslims in the days of the Holy Prophet was a thousand times better than the Muslims of today. If they need to

follow an Imam, how can we live without an Imam today when the condition of Muslims is crying for it. This is the answer why Khilafat is needed.

The issue is that once Khilafat is terminated, then it is not within the power of the people to introduce it again themselves. This is a dilemma, which the Muslim world is facing today. Khilafat starts after the passing away of the prophet and if unfortunately once it is destroyed, it is impossible that it restarts without a prophet. As far as Muslims are concerned, they are victims of dual issues. According to a large number of Muslims, the chain of Khilafat ended with the Khilafat of Hazrat Ali. After him, there was no Khiafat-e-Rashida. It was monarchy in the name of Khilafat and majority of Muslims agree that Khilafat-e-Rashida ended after Hazrat Ali. So how can you start this Khilafat once again?

As far as Shia Imams are concerned, there is no problem for them because majority of them believes that Imamate continued till the twelfth Imam. Some believe it up to the sixth Imam. Some think that it is continuing till today. But majority of Muslims deprived of the blessings of Khilafat.

Even if we accept the continuity of Imamate till today, they are unable to unite the whole Ummah on one hand. We are discussing the issue of uniting the whole Ummah on one hand and it cannot be achieved by partial or regional Khilafat. It can be achieved only by universal or global Khilafat, which will unite the whole Ummah.

Muslims believe that no prophet, of whatever category, can come now. This means that the single avenue to open the way of Khilafat has been barred. This is the big issue, which the Muslim Ummah is facing today.

The non-Ahmadi Ulema present the only solution of this problem and say that they also believe in the coming of a prophet. No doubt, he will be an old prophet, but they say that when he will come, he will be a prophet. Thus the lost Islamic Khilafat will once again be revived by Jesus Christ of Nazareth when he will descend with his old form and body. But the problem is that fourteen hundred years have passed, and there is no trace of second coming of that Jesus. There is no sign visible of his descent. World conditions have totally changed. Muslims have passed and are still passing through their worst phase of decline. But no Jesus has descended from the sky so far.

Now, the majority of Muslims are so much frustrated that they say that he has died or is living they are least interested. The scholars of al-Azhar University have repeatedly expressed their well thought and considered opinion that according to the Holy Quran, Jesus Christ has died and his second advent is absolutely impossible. It may be in their fancies, but practically, they have completely closed this door.

No one will ever descend from skies, and this is the big and difficult problem, which the Muslim world is facing today. With this they have not only destroyed the most important institution like Khilafat but they have also blocked the entrance of the beginning of Khilafat.
