Jesus In India — Page xii
xii JESUS IN INDIA recorded in the New Testament: 'An evil and adulterous genera- tion seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas: For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. ' (Matthew 12:39-40) In the present third edition, efforts have been made to make the translation closer to the original text. Formatting and layout of the book has been substantially improved. Footnotes, Glossary and Index have been updated as well. Further, the Appendix has been improved in support of the references quoted in the book. We are grateful to all those who have contributed towards the book, namely, Waseem Ahmad Sayed, Bushra Shahid, Qadir Malik, Rizwan Ahmad, Abdul Wahab Mirza, and others. May Allah the Almighty bless them abundantly. I sincerely hope and pray that this book will be a source of enlightenment for all readers. al-Haaj Munir-ud-Din Shams Additional Wakeelut Tasneef July, 2019
