144 BARĀHIN-E-AHMADIYYA - PART FIVE Meaning: 'Treat people with kindness and courtesy. You are among them like Mūsā, so be patient in the face of their uncouth remarks. ' That is to say, Mūsā was very kind and compassionate, and even though the Israelites constantly turned apostate and attacked him and levelled absurd accusations against him, he exercised patience and interceded on their behalf. Mūsā took them out of an inferno and saved them from the Pharaoh and showed them great awe-inspiring miracles. So, in naming me Mūsā there is the inherent prophecy that the same will happen in my case. Likewise, in the previous parts of Barahin-e-Ahmadiyya, God named me Dāwūd [David], the details of which will be mentioned soon at the proper place. Likewise, in the earlier parts of Barāhīn-e- Ahmadiyya, God also named me Sulaiman [Solomon], which will also be explained in a little while. In the earlier parts of Barahin-e- Ahmadiyya, God also named me Ahmad and Muhammad, which is an indication that as the Holy Prophet, may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, is Khatam-e-Nubuwwat [Bearer of the Seal of Prophethood], in the same way this humble one is Khatam-e-Wilāyat [Bearer of the Seal of Sainthood]. And finally, God described me in the earlier parts of Barāhīn-e-Ahmadiyya as: جرى الله في حلل الانبياء which means, 'The Messenger of God in the mantle of all the past Prophets, may peace and blessings of Allah be upon them. This revela- tion of Allah means that my humble self has been bestowed a portion of the particular circumstances or attributes of all the Prophets from Adam onwards-may peace be upon them-who have come into the world from God Almighty, whether they are from among the Israelites or otherwise. There has not been a single Prophet, a share of whose characteristics or circumstances have not been bestowed upon my humble self to some degree. My nature bears the imprint of the nature of every Prophet. This is what God has told me.
