| [1.]"Muslims
in government employment are constantly endeavouring to
prove me a traitor to this benevolent government. I hear
that efforts are always being made to report false things
about me [to the government], whereas you know well that
I am not a man of rebellious nature." (Tiryaq al-Qulub, p. 15 of the first
edition)
[2.]"Some of them [the
opponents] write false complaints against me to the
British government, and they put these forward, dressing
themselves up as informers, and concealing their
enmity."
(Anjam Atham, p. 68)
[3.]"In this book of his, he
has given an account of my circumstances, by way of
fabrication, and has written that I am a spreader of
disorder and an enemy of the government, and that signs
of rebellion can be seen in my behaviour, and that he is
certain that I shall do such things, and that I am an
opponent of the government."
(Nur al-Haq, Part I, p. 24)
(Reference here is to a Christian
preacher Rev. Imad-ud-Din.)
[4.]"It should be mentioned
that Dr. Clarke [a Christian missionary opponent] has
said in his [court] statement, at some places implicitly
and at others explicitly, that I am a danger to the
British government."
(Kitab al-Barriyya, p. 3)
[5.]"They are trying to turn
the government against me. The government is excusable to
some extent if it were to turn against me, because it is
not the knower of the unseen. This is why I often had to
send memorials specially addressed to the government, and
to acquaint it myself with my circumstances, so that it
would know the true and correct facts."
(Malfuzat, Part I, p. 209)
It is astonishing,
therefore, that the opponents first take false complaints
against Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad to the government, and
act as false informers, alleging that he was a rebel
against the British government. But when he clears
himself of this charge, they try to incite people against
him by accusing him of praising the government!
