Peace be upon you.
Peace be on you....Holy Quran says:
Translation:
[ch36:v31]Alas for My servants! there comes not a Messenger to them but they mock at him.
One reason of denial of Prophets and Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) has always been the fright that the one who has came from God, one day will dominate them, otherwise there should be no need to be fearful of an alone person who does not have group, power or apparent wealth or glamour. The true Prophets come alone and face the opposition of unified opponents.
The Prophet gives the glad tidings of his success when there is no apparent chance of his success, his opposition grows and eventually his success begins to take over from all corners. His message grows with Divine Backing and Judgement. As people start to understand his truth, they begin to join. This phenomenon becomes like:
[13:42] Do they not see that We are visiting the land, reducing it from its outlying borders? And Allah judges; there is none to reverse His judgment. And He is swift at reckoning.
The previous posts have been about Hazrat Musleh Mo'ud (r.a) [the promised son of Promised Messiah Mahdi a.s.] He mentioned various aspects about Promised Messiah - the Mahdi to King Amanullah of Afghanistan who reigned from 1919-1929. Following headings provide those points of truth of Ahmadiyya Promised Messiah Mahdi, who was sent for the welfare of Muslims and others. But he was seriously denied till date his followers are facing persecution at various places, but Allah the Exalted continues to give His support to him [his Khilafat] and his cause to call the world towards Divine Peace.

The people who join Hazrat Promised Messiah Mahdi (on whom be peace), come from all other faiths in all continents and they are making a humble peaceful, peace giving, true Islamic society under Khilafat which was promised in Holy Quran as:
[24:56] 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 whoso is ungrateful after that, they will be the rebellious.
[24:57] And observe Prayer and give the Zakat and obey the Messenger, that you may be shown mercy.
AND
The Khilafat was prophesied by Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) as:
1- “Prophethood will remain among you as long as Allah wills. Then Allah, the Exalted will take it away.”
2- “Then Khilafat on the lines of Prophethood shall commence as long as Allah wills. Then Allah, the Exalted will take away this.”
3-“Then tyrannical monarchy would be established, it will be there as long as Allah wills. Then Allah, the Exalted will take it away.”
4- “Then despotic kingship would emerge. It will stay as long as Allah wills. Then Allah, the Exalted will take it away.”
5-“Then (again), Khilafat on the precept of Prophethood shall be established. Then he became silent.”
[Narrated by Hadhrat Huzaifa (r.a), Musnad Ahmad, Mishkaat]
First, the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) told about his own Prophethood, then he foretold about Righteous-Khilafat (known as Khilafat e Rashidah of four Khulafa, may Allah be pleased with them).
Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) further foretold about coming of kings who came with various degree of severity for Muslims.
Lastly he said “Then (again), Khilafat on the precept of Prophethood shall be established.” Then he became silent.
This era is mentioned in another Saying of Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) when he explained the verse 4 of Surah Jumua Chapter 62. “And among others from among them who have not yet joined them. He is the Mighty, the Wise.”
a) While explaining this verse (62:4), the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) placed his hand on the shoulder of Companion Hadhrat Salman Farsi (may Allah be pleased with him) and said even if faith would ascend to the Pleiades, a man from among these would surely find it. [Ref: Bukhari, Muslim], The words of above verse tell that the incoming servant of Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) would be spiritually lost in love of him (s.a.w.).……..
b) In other Sayings, Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) identified him as Esa nabiullah (Jesus, Prophet of Allah), Messiah and Mahdi. [Ref: Muslim, Ibne Majah and others]…………
c) The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) was spiritually shown two very different appearances (colour of skin, types of hair….) of Esa (Messiah) of Moses and Esa (Messiah) of Muhammad himself ; this Messiah was circuiting Kaaba and Dajjal (anti-Christ: anti-truth forces and religious leaders who are throwing people in fire of wars) too circling around Kaaba [Bukhari]; it clearly shows the scope of Messiah of Muhammad is to defend Islam peacefully. … (peace be on all Prophets).
Thus by the grace of Allah the Exalted, the Muslims who believe in Hazrat Promised Messiah Mahdi (a.s.) and his promised Khilafat are the ones who are are 100% fully practicing Islam and getting success in line of Holy Quran. They are also serving humanity as much they could, regardless of race and faith of people, and they continue to take true message of true Islam to the world.
The evergreen Divine decree mentioned in Holy Quran:
[ch58:v22] Allah has decreed: ‘Most surely I will prevail, I and My Messengers.’ Verily, Allah is Powerful, Mighty.
Translation:
[ch36:v31]Alas for My servants! there comes not a Messenger to them but they mock at him.
One reason of denial of Prophets and Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) has always been the fright that the one who has came from God, one day will dominate them, otherwise there should be no need to be fearful of an alone person who does not have group, power or apparent wealth or glamour.
