In his Friday Sermon today Huzur gave a discourse on the true commemoration of the blessed life of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him).

Huzur said it was 12th Rabi’ul Awwal (the third month in the Islamic calendar) a few days ago, which is the date of birth of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him). A section of the Muslim world commemorates this day with great enthusiasm, in particular in the sub-continent, in Pakistan it is observed with much formality and fervour. Huzur said some write to him asking about it and indeed our opponents also query why Ahmadis do not commemorate this day. Huzur said he will explain the subject in light of the pronouncements of the Promised Messiah (on whom be peace) which will elucidate that it is the Ahmadis who truly value the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be on him).
