My Personal Profile
I am 44 years old. Although I was born Muslim but I was never satisfied to be a Muslim, just by chance. Right from the very beginning this thought always agitated my mind that I could have been Christian or Jew or Hindu etc. by chance. So, is it wise to blindly follow the religion of forefathers? I was observing various religions and numerous sects of Islam around me, each of which was claiming to be the only one who is on right path, while each of which was differing from the other in very basics. At that time, deep inside my heart a question arose that does Allah not speak today and guide those who really desire to know and adopt the paths of His pleasure? Later this question was converted into a deep prayer, asking Allah for guidance. In the mean time I kept on reading various religions and various sects of Islam but without the satisfaction and certainty that I was seeking for. I found the interpretations drawn, by the scholars of various sects, for the same verses of holy Quran so diversifying and contradicting to each other that it confused me a lot and so in the result enhanced my prayer for the guidance. Ultimately, I came across an Ahmadi Muslim friend who gave me some books. Ahmadi Muslims are those who believe that Imam Mahdi and Promised Messiah the advent of which was prophesied by our Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) has already appeared in the person of Hadhrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (1835- 1908). Here I must mention that before that I knew nothing about Ahmadi Muslims except for the false propaganda of their being non- Muslim that I had heard from scholars of other Muslim sects . I found the books (i.e. interpretation of Quran) of Promised Messiah full of knowledge, wisdom and in compliance with nature. Not only that but also during the study of said books I experienced indescribable feeling of nearness to Allah that overwhelmed me. And my heart became full of certainty that Allah has accepted my prayers and so with the grace of Allah I accepted that Imam for which our Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) had advised that If you hear of Imam Mahdi, go and get initiated at his hands even if you have to travel on your knees across glaciers .
I invite the seekers of truth to "Ahmadiat i.e The Real Islam" and assure that this is the only path that leads to God. I am saying this because I have Personal experience in this regard.
