Badr has quoted it from there. The incident was therefore accepted by them at that time in the same light as we accept it.

The learning point for me was as follows: The Qadiani Jamaat accuse Maulana Muhammad Ali of having weak faith as he thought he had the Plague. On the contrary, being a humble servant of Allah he was worried that he had contracted the disease, and this was only because of his utter humility. The reality is that one can only be truly pious if one sees ones weaknesses and is in the constant struggle (Jahd) to amend these. Your comment really answers the Qadiani allegation in that the Promised Messiah had complete faith in his piety and was therefore willing to put his claim on the line. Thanks for this entry.
