Transliteration:( Ulaaa'ikal lazeena hadal laahu fabihudaahumuq tadih; qul laaa as'alukum 'alaihi ajran in huwa illaa zikraa lil 'aalameen )
181. From this we should understand that by himself the Holy Prophet ? possessed all the qualities that were found in all the other prophets, because here the word 'follow' does not mean obedience, as our Holy Prophet ? is not subordinate to anybody. In Fact all the prophets are subordinate to our Prophet Hence, our Prophet is the leader of all the Prophets. In short what it really means is what ever excellencies the other Prophets showed.
182.Because I have come to give you, not to take from you. Only those in rank can pay those of rank. Allah Almighty alone can reward the Holy Prophet ? as every creation begs from His noble court. In addition is the the Holy Prophet's ? reflection of Allah Almighty. Just as Allah Almighty bestows and blesses without any consideration or work, so does the Holy Prophet ? In fact none of our services are worthy of the smallest compensation by the Holy Prophet ?.
183. From this emerge two points:
1. A prophet never makes his prophethood a means of his living, he eats and feeds others through his own efforts. In contrast, Mirza Qadiyani is under the disguise of prophethood
2. The Holy Prophet ? is the Prophet for the entire creation, and the Holy Prophet ? lived like a prince. QURAN too is sent as a guidance for the entire creation, be they angels, jinns, humans, animals, trees, stones etc. In short those, whose Lord is Allah Almighty, their prophet is Hazrat Muhammad ?.
