The Third Messiah

According to the revelations of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani (MGAQ), after the death of MGAQ, a Messiah will appear before the Day of Judgement. Though most of the Ahmadis are not aware about this important Ahmadi belief, they would usually accept it when they see the evidence from the Qadiani holly book, Tadhkirah.

My questions to these Ahmadis are: What are the Islamic bases of this belief? Is this Messiah the same promised one who is mentioned in the Hadeeths? If yes, then how could you accept MGAQ as the promised Messiah? If no, then how could you accept a belief which has had no single evidence from Quran or Hadeeths?

MGAQ’s Theory about the Return of Souls to Earth

In 1893, MGAQ wrote his theory about the return of the saint’s and the prophet’s souls from heaven to earth through new bodies.

In his book Aina Kamalat Islam, MGAQ provided his Tafseer for the Quranic verse 86:11 [I swear by the rain-giving heavens] as follows:

((You should notice that in this verse, God informed us about the return of the dead human being from death to life through the power of Allah Almighty. Also He returns the souls of the saints from the rain-giving heaven to the earth which is the place of birth to every human being. This is a very important point which you must remember … and this is the revealed secret about the decent [of Issa (as)] which they dispute about)) – Rouhani Khazain, Vol 5, Aina Kamalat Islam, p 446.

The Soul of Jesus Would Descend Upon the Earth Three Times

((the soul of Jesus was in travail on account of the falsehoods that had been attributed to him and demanded the descent to the earth of one spiritually his like and he supplicated God Almighty to that effect)) – English Tadhkirah, pages 266

  

First Time

((At that time our Holy Prophet – on whom be the peace and blessings of Allah- was raised. This was the first agitation of the spirit of Jesus)) – English Tadhkirah, Edition 2006, pages 266

Second Time

((Then in this age the soul of Jesus was agitated a second time, and the second time he desired the descent upon the earth of one like him)) – English Tadhkirah, Edition 2006, pages 267

Third Time

((It has also been conveyed to me that it has been determined that after the passing of an age, which will be the age of reform and goodness and the victory of divine Unity, the world will revert again to corruption, paganism and wrongdoing. Some will devour others like worms; ignorance will prevail and the worship of Jesus will be resumed; and the error of defying a creature of God will spread with great force. All this corruption will proceed from Christianity in the very last part of the last age. Then the soul of Jesus will again be greatly agitated and will, this time, desire a majestic descent. Then a terrifying likeness of his will be raised and the age will come to an end. That will be the end of the world. This shows that in consequence of the misdoings of the followers of Jesus the soul of Jesus would descend upon the earth three times)) – English Tadhkirah, Edition 2006,  page 267

MGAQ’s body receives the soul of Isa (as)

Now let us read what MGAQ wrote about the moment when his body received the soul of Issa (as)

((The soul of the Messiah was breathed into me in such a manner that my body became a container for his wills and commandments till it became full of them. Then I was joined in the wire of his being till the ghost of his soul appeared in my body; and my heart felt the being of him; and a lighting was appeared from him of which my soul received it completely. Then I was affixed to his existence more that what anyone could imagine as if I am he. In this duration my own construction fell down and the construction of the Messiah appeared in my mirror till I believed that my heart, my liver, my blood vessels and my cords are full of his soul, and that my being and his became a piece of the same core. This was what the Exalted God did.

In the beginning, his soul [Jesus] was close to me like the closeness between the sea and the boat. Then he drew near, then he bowed so his soul in my body became like the water inside the bottle. His soul was waving inside my body till I became like an unseen thing; and I became like the sugar inside the water so no one can distinguish between them. Then I felt with my senses that he encompassed me and has taken possession of my body; and we became the same thing with the same name. My clay was disappeared in his high clay. This was what I have been informed by my Lord.)) – Rouhani Khazain, Vol 5, Aina Kamalat Islam, Pages 438/439

Self-contradiction / There is No Messiah after MGAQ

MGAQ had received his revelation about the so-called third Messiah in year 1893; however it seems that his God, Yalash, had changed his mind in year 1901 when he revealed to MGAQ that there will be no Messiah after him!

((Once I leave this life, no Messiah will appear after me till the Day of Judgment)) – Rouhani Khazain, vol 18, Ejaz-ul-Masih, page 73

 

 

He confirme the same infomation in year 1902

((Other than me, there will be no other Messiah after my age)) – Rouhani Khazain, vol 16, Khutbah Ilhamiyya, page 243

 

.

Now, tell me my dear Ahmadis, which version of these Yalashi revelations you tend to believe more: a third Messiah, or no other Messiah?

  1. According to him many messiah can come :)

    “It is possible and quite possible that at some time in future such Messiah may appear upon whom the literal words of Hadith(of Holy Prophet) fit, because this humble self has not come with the Reign and Command of this world, but with poverty and humility.” (Izala-e-Auham, Roohani Khazain vol 3 p.197)

  2. he again said:

    ·”It is possible that in future no Messiah may come. It is possible 10,000 more Messiah may come and one of them may descend in Damascus.” (Izala-e-Auham, Roohani Khazain vol 3 p.251)

    :)

    I checked the 2004 edition and the 2009 edition of Tadhkirah and was not able to locate these references.

    I did find the references. But the page numbers are different.

    This shows that on account of the unworthy behaviour of the followers of the Masihas, it had been decreed that the spirituality of the Masihas should descend into the world
    three times.
