“Malfuzat” refers to the holy and insightful words of the Founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian, the Promised Messiah and Mahdi, on whom be peace, which he expressed verbally from time to time in his pure and holy gatherings or before congregations at the Annual Convention, for the purification of his followers and for their spiritual and moral training, thus enabling them to forge a living relationship with God; to teach the knowledge and wisdom of the Holy Quran; to revive the religion of Islam and to establish the shariah of Muhammad, peace be upon him.

In this book the Promised Messiah, on whom be peace, discusses the philosophy of divine revelation, the three categories of people who claim to receive revelation, and the distinction of the truthful from the false. He then establishes his truthfulness by documenting over 200 Signs, including the fulfillment of prophecies made by the Holy Prophet Muhammad, may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, other men of God, earlier scriptures, and his own revelations spanning over twenty-five years. The author cites numerous examples of his enemies who publicly predicted his downfall and demise, only to become the very victims of their own prophecies. God, however, protected him against every assault, while continuously reassuring him of His promise to bless his Community—a promise which continues to bear the seal and testimony of history. The author also appeals to the followers of different faiths to read this book cover to cover to appreciate and accept this evidence as proof that God is One and the Holy Prophet Muhammad is the Messenger of God, and that he is the Promised Messiah raised to unite humanity under the banner of Islam.

This is the third volume of the series bearing the title “The Essence of Islam,” the first volume of which was published in 1979. Like the first volume, it sets out in the words of the Promised Messiah, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian himself, a summary of his exposition of thirteen further topics: • Natural, Moral and Spiritual States of Man • Faith, Certainty and Insight • Effort and Natural Aptitude • The Need for Prophets • Prophethood in Islam • The Messiah and His Second Coming • Dajjal or the Antichrist • Dhulqarnain • Gog and Magog • Women • The Veil • Proper Upbringing of Children • Repeated Challenges

This is the third volume of the series bearing the title “The Essence of Islam,” the first volume of which was published in 1979. Like the first volume, it sets out in the words of the Promised Messiah, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian himself, a summary of his exposition of four further topics: • Family and Personal Background • Status of The Promised Messiah(as) • The purpose of the Promised Messiah’s advent • Propagation, establishment of a holy Jama’at, and instructions

Islam is a religion that inculcates the importance of being loyal to the country in which one lives. Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, peace be upon him, the Promised Messiah and Mahdi, and Founder of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, always taught the same to his followers. However, Maulvi Muhammad Husain of Batala, a staunch opponent, sought to defame the author by sending false reports to the government alleging that the Promised Messiah, peace be upon him, was a man who secretly conspired against the state. Against this backdrop, the author was moved to pen this treatise, in which he outlines his own family background and the long-standing services of his family in support of the British government. He also presents a succinct summary of the teachings of his community. Moreover, the author explains that Muslims who believe in the return of a violent Mahdi who would forcibly convert the world to Islam could not be further from the truth.

This is the second volume of the series bearing the title ‘The Essence of Islam’, the first volume of which was published in 1979. Like the first volume it sets out in the words of the Promised Messiah, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian himself, a summary of his exposition of eighteen further topics which are listed in the table of contents. The first volume has had a very encouraging reception, and it is hoped that the second volume of the series will be accorded the same degree of reception. It will be appreciated that the topics included in this volume deal with a variety of subjects on which the teachings of Islam are not widely known. This volume should help seekers after truth to arrive at a true understanding of these teachings, at a time when a great deal of interest has been stimulated in various aspects of Islam, in consequence of the disparity between the true teachings of Islam and the practice of certain sections of orthodox Muslim communities in that context.

At a time when injustice, immorality and sin ran rampant, the religion of Islam dawned to revive the bond between humanity and its Creator, and to establish peace in the world. It was at the hand of the Prophet of Islam that an unparalleled moral and spiritual transformation took place. But the Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, prophesied that a time would come when the true teachings of Islam would be forgotten and at this time a divinely appointed reformer would appear to rejuvenate Islam. In fulfilment of this prophecy, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, peace be upon him, appeared in Qadian, India, and claimed to be the divinely appointed reformer awaited by all the world religions. This book comprises an address delivered by the Promised Messiah, in which he speaks about the purpose of his advent and what it means to be an Ahmadi.
