Salaam all
Anyone who has taken the time to actually read some of the works of
Allama Ghulam Ahmad Parwez will know the diatribe below to be utter
nonsense.
There is a sect, whom I need not name, which has jostled its way in to
a place of self-proclaimed authority on what is or is not Islam. As
though Allah would share His final say!
One way they have accomplished this fraud is by claiming to have the
Sunnah of the Prophet(saws) all neatly bound up in their categorized
and approved collections of hadith. To facilitate this falsehood they
have come to use the very words Sunnah and hadith interchangeably.
They then take this insult as insufficient and compound it with
blasphemy bordering on shirk: we are told - in practice though denied
in word! - that this pseudo-Sunnah of theirs is of GREATER authority
than the Book of Allah.
Parwez himself was but one of many voices that were and are finally
being raised against the false Islam that we are warned of in the
Revelation:
25:30 ÙÙØÙ ØÙØØÙÙ ÙØØØ ØÙ ÙÙÙÙ ØØØØÙØ ÙØØ
ØÙÙØØÙ ÙÙØÙØØ
Waqala alrrasoolu ya rabbi inna qawmee
ittakhathoo hatha alqur-ana mahjooran
Then the Messenger will say: "O my Lord! Truly
my people took this Qur'an for just foolish nonsense."
